SIVGA - Que

Of all the IEMs I have, for some reason, the one I like the most is the Aful Explorer. I also have the Kefine Klean, Kefine Delci Ae, Sivga Que, Kiwi Ears Airoso, Lesthouer S08, Simgot EW300, Hidizs MP143, and MP145. All of these IEMs have a somewhat neutral, warm signature, but they all have excellent, very different sounds. I recommend the Aful Explorer, it's the best without a doubt. I won't tell you about the Hidizs MP145 because they're too big and can have adjustment problems if you have a narrow ear canal. Another thing I recommend is that you play with different types of cables and eartips, they can make a difference.

Fosi DS2 is one of the cleanest and most neutral DAC/Amps you can get, and at $50, its a steal. If you HAVE to get something off of that list, then i would go witht he Fiio KA13, just for the Fiio App, and ease of support and firmware updates through Fiio. If you want something without overpowering bass. You can basically write off the Lagato, Fudu, EM6L, Hexa, and DZ4. They all have a rumbly sub bass texture to them, the Legato is basically a bass canon, and a bad one at that. The DZ4 and the Hexa do have a slightly leaner lower mid bass region, but that just makes the sub bass more pronounced sounding. The only really vocal forward, low bass IEM in that list is the Aria2. But it is kinda older now, and i think there are some better tuned IEM's out there with a similar sound signature. The Titan S2 is a good IEM, very balanced, vocals are a little less prominent than the Aria2, but the upper mids have more authority, so female vocals are a little stronger. The mid bass of the Titan S2 is also strong, which can make it feel bassy on some rock or traditional jazz tracks. But it balances nicely with the upper treble. If you want something that has less lower mid kick, the original Titan S, or the Sivga Que, might be a better fit.

Try Sivga Que, better mid bass performance than the Explorer and more lively up in the treble to my ears.

The Que sounds less claustrophobic, more open soundstage than the explorer. The cable quality is about the same, maybe slightly better on the Que. My only gripes I guess is the shells can get cold in the winter outside and they dont scale up to high volumes as well as explorer. I guess if you liked alot of subbass or listen at really high volumes and dont listen to very vocal heavy genres, explorer could be better. I like the Explorer for background music but Que more engaging.

kbear kb02 on ali- good budget set, worth the 20$, bone conduction works!! ew300 x hbb on ali - another budget set, worth the 60 i spent, going to take this pair to work kiwiears aether on linsoul - my favorite planar so far sivga que on linsoul- on the way! fiio ft1 on linsoul - branching out from iems, also on the way!

I would put Sivga Que. above these, maybe it's worth checking it out🤟🏻

Yes sir! I think it's the best implementation and tuning of a single DD I've ever heard. Better than ea500LM and EW300 in my opinion.Its focus is on the mid-bass and that's where it shines the most. Make no mistake, it has the rumble of the subs but the midbass is simply fantastic. I think it is more technical and accurate than the two mentioned, type of construction material aside, it is elegant and refined with the wooden faceplate, the handle is simply fantastic, I think it is one of the only iems that I didn't even think about changing the cable. Look for some reviews, you will only find good things!🤟🏻

Similar tuning concept to Sivga Que so if I didn't have the Que already I would pick these ones up. Budget option would be Edx Ultra. Ignore the comments saying that it wouldn't be better than something 10 times as expensive, the truth is that tuning is almost everything unless you care very much about technicalities

I rock the Sivga que and titan s2 and they have plenty bass. Another good option can be the kefine delci.

I had Sennheiser HD 660s and now Focal Azurys, went into iems early last year. Man I have a 70$ Sivga Que that has a beryllium coated driver and is all metal/wood built iem that is better tuned than the Focal… and imho 90% of it’s technical ability. I also have other sets but my flagship is ISN EBC80 with 2 Dynamic drivers for bass, 2 balanced armatures for mids, 2 electrostatic drivers for highs and 2 full range bone conduction drivers. It is 699$ though, but it smokes all other headphones I have tried in my life. To be honest though, the best price/performance in lies in the 250-350$ range. To get a noticeable improvement you have to spend more and more and the improvement gets less and less. I currently ordered Ziigaat odyssey and that may be the nee ~200$ benchmark. On the 350$ I swear by ISN H60. As for planar iem try the new Artti t10 pro.

Well not here tu really ruin your fun but: We’ll start small. Ziigaat tips and cable are some of the worst in the bracket, they use the same low quality cable that you so much think is great on almost all their iems? This cable would be acceptable in the 100-120$ range but for over 200 we can get better elsewhere. To just point it out I do own a 70$ Sivga Que that has all metal/wood build, has nicer case and waaay nicer cable and better tips and more of them.. Tips are just standard throwaway tips. I’d highly recommend getting Spinfit W1/Penon LS tips/ ( those are my two favourites, not only medical grade silicone for better comfort but they improve the sonics a bit. W1 is a bit of a v shape while Penon is more balanced. Arete itself, well frankly I find it the worst out of their lineup of the 200+ stuff. Either Doscinco, Cincotres, Estrella or Odyssey are arguably better ( not sure about Arcadia, did not hear it yet ). Don’t think that I’m a hater or anything of that sorts but Arete really is the worst of their lineup imho. And I’ve nothing against Ziigaat, as I actually own the Odyssey and have the same shitty cable and shitty tips ;)

Get the Kefine Klean, it has shaken up the price bracket. Good audio gear is getting cheaper and cheaper. I’m rocking Sivga Que among others and I paid 69$ for it. 5 years ago this kind of build, cable and driver and sound quality would easily be 200$

I don’t want to insult anyone but you forgot that majority of humans out there are ignorant morons. There I said it. I even pointed them to warm, bassy iem example done right ( we judge only the tuning ) not the price, as this could have been made of off cardboard and dirt cheap otherwise. The Penon Globe. i also own the Penon Fan OG which is a single DD iem that is bassy and warm. I love my Sivga Que as well. So all of them are more expensive, yes, but it’s mostly about tuning. If we would strip the much nicer cable, accessories, packaging and build quality. In the end the single dd driver in China on the oem market can be had for 1$ or maybe even pennies. Let the body be plastic, I don’t care but those people telling me that this thing rocks, and beats Performer 5+2 or Hype2? That sounds like being delusional, I would advise those individuals to simply lower the treble region and/or boost the bass region and clearly here which thing remains superior. But at the end of a day, you need to remember. Trying to shove facts or knowledge to certain heads is like trying to revers a nile with a tooth pick. “ A monkey in silk is a monkey no less “

I bought sivga Que 2 months ago or so, and really love them. Gizaudio replied that despite the fact that Klean is cheaper he thinks it sounds better. But audio is subjective. I had the Thieaudio Hype 4 and did not like their vocals, preffered the Que tuning although Hype was obviously „better” being more thn 4x the price. Sold it, moved on.

I’d add Sivga Que to the mix, Kefine is an offspring of Sivga. I have both the Que and Delci AE ( although I lost the silver nozzles and am left with gold ones :/ ) The Que is a bit more midbass centric and is thanks to this more “grounded” think marshall sound with properly done treble. The male vocals sound fuller, and the bass is slightly less deep than Delci, but has more body thanks to the slightly lifted midbass. Delci AE (silver nozzle) has a bit better treble extension, but feels a bit more “boring” If i dare to use this word here, Que simply has a bit more Character. Delci is more of this “albeit well done, generic consumer sound signature close” I Think You’d like Sivga for rap. Oh, Que is also way easier to fit in my ear for some reason. Delci is a super small iem and it’s hard to get a proper fit quite often. But Delci AE has an ace up it’s sleeve and that’s 2 set of tuning nozzles. The gold ones are much brighter and somewhat bring the sound signature close to the simgot EW200. It’s much more exciting sound signature, but it will bring fatigue rather quickly. Sivga Que holds a special place in my headt and it was one of those cheap” gems that I love despite owning 8 other sets and reaching up to 700$ ISN EBC80.

Sure thing, no problem. Look at squiglink the Volare is your well tuned Harman V. Mega5 est bass+ ( a mouthfull ) is a tilted one. The price difference between them is minimal, but the Volare has 4 BAs and 4 EST drivers adding a DD that’s 9 drivers per side. So I can assume the texture on those will be better having more drivers. But that being said tuning is what makes all the difference. That’s why my most beloved iem is the 70-75$ Sivga Que And maybe Penon Fan 3 as they are tuned very similarly. And being a single DD you can’t best it’s cohesive and natural flavour :)

First come back after 15 years of iem hiatus was Sivga Que, beryllium coated single DD with all metal and wood build, still use it and still love it. Even though I have 7 other sets ’

Aye, especially in the case of the Que as it has a midbass bump that helps to bring authority to male vocals and ground them. It’s a fantastic iem imho and the build and accessories for the price are awesome.

Hmm. Sivga Que, Single DD Beryllium Coated. Amazing Cable and accessories ( cable sold alone is almost jn the price of an iem! ) all metal/wood build. More midbass presence which gives male vocals power and authority. 60-70$ https://preview.redd.it/y12o58q20vue1.jpeg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1d4662139853629900a26ea0120934770478e004

It’s very musical. I highly recommend it :)
