I’ve been familiar with Focal headphones for a long time, but in a one-track manner: for 5 years now, I’ve had amazing Focal Utopia in my personal use, which I haven’t wanted to change for anything over all this time. But the old Utopia are one thing, and the new Hadenys are a totally different thing.
I saw Soratune YI01 earphones on AliExpress by chance, and, prompted by the desire to try something unusual, I impulsively bought them for $73. Therefore, today we’ll talk about what kind of earphones they are, whether it’s worth paying attention to them, etc. Looking ahead, it’s worth it.
I know the EPZ company only by a single, but extremely successful earphone model, EPZ G10. It’s those ‘earphones with a flashlight included’. P50 is a completely different story both technologically and in terms of the price/self-presentation. This is a bid for ‘real’ sound for a little less than $200.
It’s impossible to take no notice of headphones, which are highly praised in all reviews without exception and about which everyone to a man is raving about. Today we’ll talk about FT1 by Fiio, another attempt to make it both good and cheap, for some $160, and even in a difficult class of closed-back models.
I wanted to write about these earphones a long time ago as they’ve been in my headphone vault for more than six months. Why so long? Well, everything was clear with them right away, and when everything is clear, writing obvious stuff no longer seems interesting.
I got a message from Sivga company once, asking “Would you like to do reviews of our sports earphones?” As I don’t know a thing about sports earphones, I immediately answered, “I’d rather get a Que model from you…” And they’re like, “Tell us your address, we’re on it!”
