"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"


"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"


"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"Super comfortable resin shell, has shorter nozzle so no discomfort with insertion for me, YMMV. ... Just prefer the tuning & fit/design of the InAwaken, it can be used all day with no problems physically or musically. ... I can’t speak for you but had zero comfort issues (my ears are small/medium in width). The inner shell is very smooth with no bumpy nodules. Has the best fit of my x4 current iem’s."


"The fit is incredible, light, shorter nozzle, so sits great in-ear/canal area isn irritated. ... Can wear all day with zero fatigue."


"Hours and hours of usage everyday and no headaches, no sweat ... I prefer using IE-300 for longer sessions out of them all."

"Even Oneplus hass Tighter And powerful bass but still Produce better instrument Details and seperate Than Both of this Realme Buds. ... The bass on the Oneplus side is Awesome 👍 👍 You Can't Achive that Tighter and Depp bass on this both Realme buds werher you use External or Internal Equalizer doesn't matter ... I really liked this Oneplus Sound"


"I simply love the sound of the Zenith. ... I really feel it should've & could've costed three times as much. ... It easily replays as well as many +$100 single DD sets. ... A very clean sound, wonderfully balanced, no part if the spectrum is the main focus. The timbre is great too. ... I am very impressed at what KZ was able to do at such a cost."

"bad connection with pc vía USB (im not making the de mic work)"


"I had many times where sonar audio devices flat out wouldn’t work properly and required a restart or reinstall to fix, and I got tired of it."


"The one problem I have with them is when they go into a standby mode and come out of it, the mic stops working, both on Bluetooth and with the dongle. ... So like if I'm in a Discord chat and I mute for 20 minutes and come back, I have to put the buds back in the case and take them out for the mic to work again."

"My zs 10 pro x came with a very weird sound compared to my old zs10 pro(lacking bass, too much treble). ... The problem is the excessive glue in the filter, just remove it carefully, clean it, remove all the glue and just put it back."

Downgrading PR2 was not deliberate but after running out of stock of certain component, due to unavailability KZ sourced the component from elsewhere which changed the whole tuning. Same thing happened with CCA. Their mistake is that they should have labelled PR2 to something like PR2 alternate version or some other name to notify customers that it's not the exact same PR2.

That's not true. No company world like to ruin their reputation by engaging in malpractices which would be obvious in the public.

Not just that model but sub brand models like the qkz vk4 and cca cra also got downgraded after positive reviews and the qc is still bad, both for iems, and cables.

Yeah, I’ve tried them both. When I bought my current IEMs (Moondrop Kato) a couple of years ago, I tried the Aria, the IE200, CCA CRA+, and the S12. The IE200 were the most comfortable, but they come with an awful cable and sounded worse than everything else I tried besides the CRA+. The Aria were more comfortable than anything else I tried besides the IE200, including the Kato that I ended up keeping and sounded better than everything except the Kato.

Personally, after I bought my Aful Performer 5, I didn't have any thought of getting another one. I've been through the hurdle of buying cheap IEMs under $30 (CCA-CRA, Wan 'Er, Wyvern Abyss), and after my third cheap IEM, I decided to just blow it on the Aful Performer 5 and it basically provides me with everything I need and it plays my entire catalog of music exceptionally. There are obviously going to be newer and better ones than the P5, but I find it satisfactory for now.

r/iems • What’s the price range where IEMs hit “peak value”? After what point is spending more basically pointless? ->

Are the tips for comfort or for sound quality? I've been pretty comfy with a default pair that came with my CCA CRAs, but open to suggestions. My experience with high end audio is exclusively with open ear headphones so I am completely lost here lol. Fwiw I've really enjoyed them and my wife's wen er 2s especially for the price and have a few more on the way. The price point on budget iems is low key dangerous for audiophiles!

I am currently using the CCA CRAs, and they've honestly served me great, but for music, I want something a lot better. Some of my favorite current artists are Aurora, Mitski, The Marias, Sarah Kinsley, but I really love orchestral music as well. I generally like a warmer sound signature where the bass isn't too overpowering. I also game a lot, but I really enjoy games with great music, so something that can enhance that would be amazing. Particularly Expedition 33! My current budget is $100 USD, but anything within $50 is fine. I've been recommended Hexas, T10s, Pure, but I was also wondering about the SuperMix 4s and EW300s. What is a good starter setup?

r/iems • For someone who hasn't delved into the world of IEMs since the TFZ Exclusive 5, what do you guys recommend I should get? ->

I had the og cra and cra+ in short worth the blind buy for bass head on a tight budget. Other factors can be a hit or a miss.

r/headphones • CCA CRA+: pure fun at a ridiculous price. ->
