ARTTI - T10 Pro

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.

got the t10s last week and they insane, one of the best in my entire collection

My recommendations: NiceHCK F1 Pro. On sale, they're like $65.00. Bright V-shaped, they feel very balanced, and ARTTI T10. On sale, they're like $50.00. Mid-centric V-shaped. They feel very balanced. ARTTI T10 Pro. On sale, they're like $90.00. Warm, they feel darker but with details. KZ PRX. On sale, they're like $60.00 on Amazon US. On AliExpress, they're like $30.00, or even less. Classic V-shaped, but well done. Source: trust me, bro. https://preview.redd.it/dh3zmb1ot7jf1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=51578f4aaca377c78b896ed66b85e9656bfe750c

I've tried some planars in the sub $100.00 category (budget restrictions), and I really love the planar sound. So far, I've tried the ARTTI T10, KZ PRX, ARTTI T10 Pro (right on the pic), and NiceHCK F1 Pro (left on the pic). If you've tried planar magnetic IEMs (pure or hybrid), which ones have been your fav? Mine are the ARTTI T10 Pro, but not by far.

I'd love to try the Shozy P20, but I haven't found them at a good price yet (I got the ARTTI T10 for $30.00, the KZ PRX for $26.00, the ARTTI T10 Pro for free and the NiceHCK F1 Pro for $41.00). How are the Sgor Luna compared to the ARTTI T10?

\-KZ EDC Pro is THE bang for buck pair of IEMs. Period. I wouldn't say they're the best in the sub $20.00 category (not by a long shot), but you can get a sub $20.00 pair AND the KZ EDC Pro, usually for the same $20.00 if you use discounts. You can have them as a spare pair of IEMs for Every Day Carrying (EDC) and leave your better, more expensive IEMs at home. \-The best KZ planar by far are the PRX, and they're around $30.00 (or less) on AliExpress. They're harder to drive than the ARTTI T10 Pro or the Sgor Luna, and the included accessories suck (except for the ear tips, they're quite good for my ears), but they're easy to recommend if you can get them at a(n even better) discount and have a better spare KZ-QDC cable around. https://preview.redd.it/4z7dggtk58df1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=45eaf3a592ad7051b936bbe578e22cc9bffd5dae

ARTTI T10 are the best planar IEMs you can get at the sub $50.00 category, with discounts, of course (get the stock 4.4mm balanced cable version for extra juice and some adapters if you plan to use them with 3.5mm single-ended). I'm rocking the ARTTI T10 Pro and the NiceHCK F1 Pro right now, but I still keep my OG T10 🫶🏼 (that's a 2.5mm balanced cable to use with an old dongle DAC/Amp I have, but the stock cable is great 🫶🏼). https://preview.redd.it/c9vgrlum78df1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=bb448ecf435db6d01b0aae68766133b302e78fa5

Sorry for the late reply: The T10 Pro have more mid-bass. They aren't as bright as the OG T10, but the build quality is better, and the Pro version fit me like a glove. They're still quite detailed, just warmer and smoother for longer listening sessions.

Either Letshuoer S08 of ARTTI T10 Pro are great warm planars

Another warm planars are the ARTTI T10 Pro. Both these and the S08 are great options. https://preview.redd.it/vv144wno36qf1.jpeg?width=3695&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2791da1e6c0c0cfc2a51b5a7d9aa00f7dc996919

First of all: I am not an expert in hi-fi. I'm just a simple man who was looking for good IEMs, and this is only my subjective opinion. The IEMs I was looking for should cost between $50 and $150 and should have balanced, lively bass with pleasant treble that does not tire the ears. So far, I have tried many IEMs and tested them on my PC and smartphone without any additional devices. No DAC, no amp. It was important to me that they were ready to use right out of the box. For me, good sound is when it is carried by lively bass and deep frequencies that guide you through the music, especially for drum and bass and metal. Low frequencies, and especially bass, form the basis of a good listening experience; that's the primary purpose of why I prefer hi-fi headphones, to get into it. My rotation: **≈ 50$ IEMs which I tested:** LINSOUL TANGZU Wan'er LINSOUL SIMGOT EW200 MOONDROP CHU II LINSOUL 7Hz x Crinacle Zero:2 KZ Castor LINSOUL KZ ZS10 PRO 2 LINSOUL KZ ZS10 PRO X **≈ 100$ IEMs which I tested:** LINSOUL SIMGOT EW300 ARTTI T10 Pro TRUTHEAR Hexa Surprisingly, only two of the IEMs I tested impressed me with their overall bass reproduction. I couldn't decide between the KZ PRO 2 and the ZERO BLUE 2, but in the end I chose the BLUE 2 because it offers the best overall package. For me, the ZERO BLUE 2 is simply badass right out of the box. These were the only IMEs that had this deep sounding I was looking for. https://preview.redd.it/fm66t5fl5uef1.jpg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87099e1c617e96b62bb51f28fe01520ebe96a0c6 https://preview.redd.it/pyn3x43m5uef1.jpg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=721c67332e8f8dd3db7ed8ac6e948c098e174871

Their bass is a bit better is all in my opinion. If y'all already have the T10s it's not worth the upgrade

$200-300 is probably the sweet spot but there are some IEMs in the $50-80 range that sound pretty good. My personal favorites right now are the Truthear Hexa & Artti T10s
