TANGZU - XuanWu Gate

They are sold on AliExpress though. And I don't know the model, that would be much cheaper than its rivals with common drivers. I compare price range $500-800. Would be grateful if you will point me on something value interesting. I own Mega5est and wait for Tangzu Xuanwu Gate to come

What are legendary iems?? Please share 🥺🙏 About 1k. I purchased Monarch MK3 not long ago, and already selling them. I just couldn't believe, that they asked 1k for that muffled bass and sibilant highs without good definition. My Mega5est and Tangzu Gate outperformed them.

These iem have best tonal tuning for me! They should take it, add some ESTs for highs, maybe add a little bit of subbass and sell it for a 1k+. For the context : I own also Mega5est, Tangzu Xuanwu Gate and Aful Dawn-X!

1. Arya Stealth - Fast and thumpy bass, great treble, and pretty good mids too. It's just a great all arounder imo, and for me I find them very comfortable with the headband and shape, I thought I would only like this for criticaly and analytical listening where I focus on the music, especially the instruments, but I ended up liking it for everything and every use case, even movies and games. They also take really well to EQ 2. Night Oblivion Butastur - smooth, really really smooth sound with great mids. The treble also has some sizzle, and the bass is probably some of yhe best bass I've had on a pure BA driver IEM. Also compared to other relatively priced IEMs, the shell is pretty small and fits comfortably and feels light, great for relaxing listening, or when listening to music while doing something else due to its comfort, and smoothness of sound. 3. Tangzu Xuanwu Gate - First off, this thing just looks Amazing. It's much more technical than the butastur, better bass and better treble. It's tuned ever so slightly U shaped, feels like neutral with just a bit of oomph for fun. Addicting sound, though mids don't sound nearly as good as the butastur does, it does sound more technical, better for analytical listening than the butastur, and the details are great on this thing. The shell size is huge though, and it is quite heavier, so it gets uncomfortable on the ears much quicker. 4. Harmonicdyne G200 - My EQ Machine. Just have to say, the base tuning sucks a lot, but this has so much value if you're part of the EQ gang. It's basically a mini LCD-X in EQ prowess, and its extremely fun to use when I have a lot of free tim, and just messing around with EQ on different songs, trying to bring out different parts of it at the same time. Stock pads, while extremely comfortable, doesn't seal properly and may need to be changed depending on your head. 5. Sennheiser HD600 - The vocals are great, probably the best. Amazing timbre too. But that's pretty much it for me with this thing, the bass is lacking, and yes it takes to EQ well, and I can EQ it to decent amounts still, but the treble also sounds veiled, or muffled, and I can't really get it to sound good in EQ either. I know people find it comfortable, and I do, for the first 20 minutes or so, until I start really feeling the clamp of the headband and it gets unbearable quick. This thing should've been great for movies and relaxed listening, but the lack of bass, veiled treble, and the very uncomfortable headphone clamp made it just not for me. I'm not selling it though, since I got these on the low second hand for around $130 I think. So It's still nice to have on the rotation sometimes, and I definitely get why a lot of people love them.

They do have a slight boost in both the Bass and the Treble regions, but to my ear they didn't ever sound too harsh, just very detailed and resolving. I do try to limit myself to medium volumes and don't find the time for listening sessions over about an hour long all that often though, for context. Edit: If you're worried about the Treble boost and might want something warmer, also check out the Tangzu XuanWu GATE. They don't sacrifice much in terms of perceived detail, stage and separation, but they sound a bit fuller in the lower mids as well as less pronounced in the treble. It's regular price is a bit over the 500€ you stated, but with the End of Year discounts (or Chinese New Year in a february) you should be able to find a decent deal on them.

Yup, the TANGZU XuanWu Gate.

No, it really isn't, you're just cheap :/ Also, don't even listen to yourself, you're using tangzu gates with a known sucky microphonic cable and not even using the sancais with the gate.

Hey guys 1 more day to go and I hope everyone got their IEMs collection expanded. Share what iems you got and which is ur favorite. Don't be shy all iems as long ur enjoying the music we all be happy, share ur experiences. Me? I got; - Aoshida E20 with the -25 dlls coupon from linsoul. - Quintet with the -50 dlls coupon from linsoul. - HBB Punch With the -150 dlls coupon from linsoul. - XuanWu Gate for -250 dlls from Aliexpress. I honestly like all of them but the looks of the XuanWu Gate is just mesmerizing. The Quintet is a very unique sounding IEM. HBB Punch well the chunky beast do what it does like nobody else and Aoshida Beryllium DD is my GFs favorite hahahaa.. figures..

XuanWu Gate= made a new aliexpress account for a 10% first buy, -70dlls of over 400+ buys and their anniversary sale. Thanks for the extensive explanation they are at 200dlls in Amazon ill check them out. I use kiwi ears flex for all my iems since it tame the treble beautifully without losing details.

Tangzu Gate. Which for me is endgame. I’m sure there is better if you want to spend a lot more but i personally find that to be such large diminishing returns for your money. (Unless you want to spend more money do what you want)

For when I am just sitting listening to music the Gate for sure. But for daily driving I kind of rotate between them. Currently I’m using the Celest plustus beast (not pictured cause it’s on my desk)

I just got these for around 8 USD and I fully agree. I never identified as a basshead, but I do have the same preferences as you, and the Rosefinches are just something else. Some of us on most days just dont care for detail and want to relax to some beats after a long stretch of work. Probably a stretch to call it a budget Aful Explorer, but I was itching to buy one then these Rosefinches just sated that urge for me at a fraction of the price. I like that the size was surprisingly large for this price, and fits my ears just nice with minimal struggles. I tried both Tang Sancais and Tri Clarions.

Tanzhim bunny, Tang Zhu waner, moon drop chu 2,if you love bass truth gear gate,dont think about anything else if you are starting over. avoid castors they are heavy on ears not comfortable on long hrs.I would say moon drop, tanzhim or tanzghu way to go.Dont forget to buy a DAC go for audiocular d07 or audiocular spark don't skip DAC.
