ARTTI - T10 Pro

What are your favorite parts of the Truthear Zero Reds? A step up to consider aside from the Xenns Mangird Tea Pro would be the ZiiGaat Crescent. They have all of the characteristics of the Xenns except what I found to be a bit of harshness in the higher frequencies for some songs. One thing I find that helps me look at and envision what an IEM might sound like, while comparing my own experience in listening to others and knowing the graphs, is what may come next or where I'm going to be happy. Here is an example for the two IEM I have mentioned. Please note who's graph this is so it helps when you view their reviews additionally on YouTube for example.

Now the Xenns Mangird Tea Pro v Arttis T10 Pro (I am testing these) and find them to be every bit as great as the Mangird Tea Pro and have less sibilance for $230 less. https://preview.redd.it/kcnxoaxu0srf1.png?width=2316&format=png&auto=webp&s=5eb5d9d6b95f17dd81e7cbc76bf4d003b12c9531 I'm not getting any sibilance in every genre I play and love these, though they are not exactly the prettiest of IEM, they sure do sound great. I'm also consistently using Dunu S&S eartips as they fit my ears best for a good seal and I'm getting a consistency with other IEM I have tried.

Paid $71 on Amazon, and after a few songs, boxed them up and sent them back. I had a very different experience with the T10 Pro. The construction is worth the $15 but no more, unless the version I got were counterfeit.

EM6L and Artii T10 pro are both very good options.

Buy the T10, not the Pro. The T10 OG is a better set, period. Sequel was a regression.

Definitely planar for hard rock and metal. So, S08 if you're treble sensitive. Otherwise get the S12 Pro. Arti T10 Pro is another great option. Or Nicehck F1 Pro if you want to spend less. Hearing good things about the 7hz Divine as well.

I like t10 pro but I have a small preference for PRX. I am tempted to buy something huge and stupid like timeless 2 or Shody P20...

I got the AM16 Bass edition, however I like my T10 Pro a lot better. Voices sound "unnatural" on the AM16 and the treble sometimes hurts. with some EQ though its sounds reasonably good for the price point.

It's not a knock on IEMs. Just my personal experience. idk what it is but across my Moondrop Aria, Salnotes zero and 1 month of Artti T10s, I couldn't get much footsteps or real in game indicators of enemy whereabouts in ***Warzone***. Pulled out my 3 year old HyperX out of the dust and everything was more clear. But, my God , do i hate how hot these Headphones get (even with aftermarket pads) and I have to cool them down between games by holding it towards my fan Lol. still IEMs are my go to for everything else throughout the day, I just put up with the b/s headphones for Warzone. FWIW I believe they did design the audio of the game focused at the console market, i.e. 99.9% of them are using traditional headphones). side note: Fortnite is perfectly fine on IEMs fwiw. Played several years of tourneys on IEMs without worries. I think Warzone sound engine is just terrible.

Artti T10 4.4mm ($50 on Aliexpress) + TRN Black Pearl DAC ($40 on Amazon) is a nice set up.

>But I would have preferred even for almost double the price to have just a shell revision, with the modular cable and exactly the same fit as the original T10. Interesting, because for me the fitment of the OG T10 was the biggest problem. I cant wear them for more than a half hour, 45 minutes, TOPS, without getting massive hot spots in my ears. The T10 Pro fixers all of that. Tuning wise, i actually prefer the T10 Pro. I think its one of those IEM's where it can feel disappointing if you havent branched out into higher priced IEM's. Because, whether anyone wants to admit to it, the T10 Pro IS a better tuned IEM. The way the treble roll of happens controls a lot of the Planar Timbre, and matches closely with many popular tuning curves from Ziigaat and AFUL. Which can allow for a little higher volume playback, and like the Explorer, some additional detail to come out with that higher twist of the volume knob. The problem is that the OG T10 really retains a lot of that Planar shimmer, and gives the impression of detail by sounding overly bright in the Pina Gain Region at 2k, making it seem very vocal forward. And that can, IMHO, make the OG T10 seem to lack some cohesiveness in the presentation, which we see in the S12 2024, and S08, and T10 Pro. I do agree that the bass is a little too thick. I would have liked to see it a little leaner to match the rolled off treble. Its almost a less dramatic version of the Arcadia, with the added speed of the Planar, which the Arcadia just cant match. And when you look at it from that perspective, it becomes a pretty impressive IEM for the price. That being said, i think if you find the T10 Pro to be a little lacking, the next best alternative is the KiwiEars Aether. It pretty much hits a balance between the T10, and T10 Pro. It retains some of the OG T10 Pina Gain, but matches the treble roll off of the T10 Pro everywhere else, EXCEPT at 8k. The Aether also has a lower sub bass shelf, which kills the overdone bass problem of the T10 Pro complete. And finally, the tuning of the Aether almost totally removes that Planar Timbre and Shimmer. Unfortunately, most people wont have as good of a time getting teh Aether to fit, as they will the T10 Pro. The T10 Pro is going to remain in my rotation for the forseeable future. It just hits all of the right spots i want it to, in terms of sound and comfort.

What's up, bros? You probably know the Artti T10 was a big hit. But what about its successor? Is it still worth it? I'm here to answer to solve all your curiosities. Pros: - Design - Fit - Improved build quality - Good imaging - Nice detail and separation - High resolution, textured bass Cons: - planar timbre - Treble can be sharp at times Build: The T10 Pro definitely showcases upgraded materials compared to its predecessor. The T10 was criticized for its relatively flimsy-feeling plastic build, and this seems to have been faithfully addressed. Metal material that won't break easily. It definitely feels more robust. Fit: Because the shells aren't large, the fit is good. It's a shell design that even people with small ears can comfortably wear. Noise Isolation: Since the shells are small, it's about average, but with the right eartips, you can expect decent noise isolation. Design: The design generally shares a similar feel to the OG model, but with the addition of subtle patterns and the changed build, it definitely looks more premium. Accessories: It provides decent quality silicone tips, a case, and a good cable. The eartips are usable in practice, and I quite liked the cable of this IEM. A nice and sturdy silver cable. Bass: The bass quality is truly amazing! This IEM has the best bass I've experienced among planar IEMs ( total 12). The texture is good, it extends well, and the resolution is quite high for the price, making it easy to discern the movement of the bass. Vocals: Vocals are separated quite well from other frequencies and do not exhibit sibilance. Female vocals, in particular, are sweet and detailed. Male vocals are a bit bright but have a suitable thickness, excellent vocals overall. Treble: Overall, it's not excessively bright and possesses decent extension and airiness. Instruments in the higher frequencies (especially drums) can occasionally sound a bit sharp, but this can be resolved with eartips. Overall, it's quite detailed, technical, and the extension is slightly restrained. Timbre: Frankly, the planar timbre of this IEM is strong. A metallic-like sound is also heard more as the tracks become more complex. This could be a negative point for some users. However, this only appears in some rather complex tracks and is a shared issue among several planar IEMs. Instrument Presentation: Drums: Has a decent punch and good airiness. However, you might occasionally feel they are a bit sharp. Cymbals: Can sometimes sound sharp, but they have a strong presence with good imaging. Acoustic Drums: Have good airiness and a pleasant sharpness that makes their presence distinct. Rumble: Not massive, but has a decent impact. It doesn't miss small rumbles, and I like this aspect. Guitar: String plucks are good, resonance is good, and the strumming is decent. Electric Guitar: Definitely has pretty nice texture. Nothing more to complain. Piano: Relatively clear, and again, well-separated from other instruments and distinct. Violin: Has a moderately restrained resonance and is still very well-separated from other instruments. Electronic: In EDM music, the T10 Pro provides both good texture and dynamics at the same time. I actually enjoyed most of the tracks. Detail: The detail is quite good. It's not the best detail set for the price, but it definitely reveals subtle sounds well enough even in complex tracks. Resolution: The resolution of this IEM is quite outstanding and actually shines in complex tracks. It flawlessly resolved even metal genre tracks, which are among the most complex. Imaging: It has very good imaging as a planar IEM. It has no shortcomings in representing multiple instruments clearly, and overall, whatever sound it portrays, the edges are not blurry. Satisfying. Soundstage: It's hard to say the soundstage is wide, but it has good depth. In fact, depending on the track, it clearly brings the feeling of sounds coming from further away. Vs Kz prx: The PRX is in a lower price range but is also a solid IEM. The PRX has a wider soundstage, but the T10 Pro is definitely more detailed and resolves better. The bass of the T10 Pro has better texture, while the PRX is more resonant. The T10 Pro excels in build, cable, and included accessories. However, the treble of the PRX is safer and has less of a flat timbre. Vs s08: Okay, now this is a fair comparison. The S08 is technically definitely below the T10 Pro. The timbre of the S08 is generally warm, thick, and round. It's a much more single DD-like sound than the T10 Pro. The soundstage isn't particularly outstanding on either, and both products have good included accessories. Artti t10 pro is a compelling IEM that is technically very solid while also securing high-quality bass and vocals. Flat timbre and sharp treble are drawbacks, but I think the pros outweigh them. For users looking for a solid and technical planar IEM at a low price of around $80 (regular price), this is definitely a recommendable IEM.
