I loved the first, the second is an even more insane value\*.\* First impressions compared to the first after the first few songs is it has a little less bass and a little more treble, so if you wanted more details, but maintain the original's warmth minus the flood of bass from the originals, this is it. I do think the vocals are slightly more muddled than the original, but for the bass trade off, I can accept that. But it's a bit more sibilant. Way more spacious and detailed though, plus, a lot more isolating and a touch bigger. But, notably heavier. Haven't tip rolled them yet though edit: comes in 3.5, and 4.4. I chose 3.5. Includes their sancai Narrow, standard, and wide bore tips. Which run about 30 bucks for those 3 sets.

Fudus verse 2s are great and have that bass you are looking for

My ear canals are quite small and I don't have issues with kz iems when using small earips, like tri Clarion S, tangzu sancai balanced S, I just don't force nozzle in if it feel uncomfortable

I received mines today. The unboxing experience was amazing. The case and the shells look stunning. The only thing that I didn't enjoy that much was the tip rolling. None of the tips that comes with this set worked for me. I had to use some different tips from another set that I own. I'm gonna get the Tanchjim tips that you're mentioning to see how it goes.

Received mine yesterday and they are fucking amazing. One of my best pair for sure 😊 Just sad of the noble eartips buying in the same time doesn't fit in my ears with this pair... Hopefully noble tips works fine with my explorer, bravery 2024 and nova

they replaced it with the Fudu Verse 2, which is meh tuning (depends on person), and wood faceplate (for those who likes woodgrain) Fudu Verse 1 still better imo, though they still sell here on Shopee Philippines, most likely warehouse inventory

celest: plutus beast, letshuoer: tape pro, Kiwiears: singolo. The last two are probably the worst things I own, I would add the dufu verse 2 to that list but it looks better so its get to stay in the box. The celest is on my desk cause im currently using it. I guess I also have a waner 2 but I like the studio edition more.

My kunten is still stuck on custom/postal service but just looking at the graphs and reading reviews i already kinda regret the Artti T10 tbh i rly hope Kunten will sound worse but let's see i'll update soon.. KZ i tested so far: D-fi (no switch), ZVX, Castor Silver, Carstor Bass, Libra X, Gale, ZSN Pro 2, EDC Pro, EDX Pro and PRX, KZ-like iems QKZ HBB and Sgor Adonis and non KZ ones Moondrop Chu 2, Truthear Zero Red, Tangzu Fudu, TRN V10 Pro and Artti T10. The KZ that i liked the most "stock" was Libra X it was very clean neutral and "correct" sounding but the bass was lacking while a EQed PRX with -2dB 8Khz and -10dB high-shelf on 10 Khz+ was insane good sounding and no worse than my EQed Artti T10 but the right driver died on me with only 5 months, i can confirm QC and build quality of KZ is kinda crap (brittle QDC connectors, exposed tunning filters) but as long as i'm paying less than a cheap meal for them it's fine cuz even if Kunten last me 6 months i can buy 9x Kunten (i.e: 54 months) with the price of an Artti T10 and idk if the Artti will even last 1 year!
