"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!"
"For an open style earbud, these genuinely surprised me with their overall performance in sound at this price point. ... IMHO, these Soundpeats PearlClip Pro are probably the best I’ve heard in this under $50 price category when it comes to this style of earbuds. ... These are one of the best clip-on earbuds in this price category especially when it comes to price to performance in sound quality and feature set"
"Excellent detail retrieval ... The Aether raises the bar for the entire IEM industry. ... It represents a tectonic shift in what consumers can expect in both tonal purity and technical prowess per dollar. ... The Aether’s capacity to resolve detail eclipses many much more expensive IEMs both old and new alike."

"For gaming, these are perfect. ... As a valorant immortal, tier 2 and premier player, I can confidently say that the imaging and soundstage are spot-on. ... Footsteps, directional cues, and in-game sounds are incredibly precise and natural, giving a competitive edge without any unnecessary bass/treble bloat."
"For gaming the Tea Pros so far are a 10/10, I play mostly Hunt: Showdown and the additional separation, staging, and tighter but punchy bass were all noticeably better for my ears."
"endgame ... Otherwise I probably wouldn't use any other IEM for gaming but this ... The best was definitely the EM6L where I felt nearly no difference in performance with my headphones ... The EM6L is by far and away the best iem for fps gaming. ... But as of rn the EM6L is the best imo ... The EM6L is still king of gaming in my opinion. ... Em6l is still end game."

"Regarding the treble, definitely an improvement compared to the ZS10 PRO X; They are not sharp like their ancestor, they are well detailed, but they do not penetrate your ear causing that characteristic discomfort. It's so soft to hear the cymbals sizzle after the beat, but without that feeling of penetration."
"It's not even remotely shouty in the treble. ... The Explorer is very relaxed in the treble. ... It stays in the background except for when called upon. Very much a "peek-a-boo" treble. ... it's mostly inoffensive ... it's super tame in the upper mids ... it's far from being comparable to sets that are truly hot/shouty."
"a smooth signature with no annoying peaks or shout ... works with most genres ... can be used all day without fatigue."

"The bass is probably my favorite thing about these. ... But if you're like me and you just want something balanced with a bass that has presence and punch, then this is that. ... The bass isn't boomy and overpowers everything, it's so relaxing, the mid-bass hits, you don't just hear it but you feel it. ... The sub-bass has a very good rumble and it's clean, you can clearly feel it shake, you can hear it die down. ... It's controlled, it doesn't go on for too long and when the song demands some shaking, the Vivace will make sure you get shaken by that bass. ... For example, in leather jacket by Ken Carson, it has this beat that sounds and almost feels like it wants to tickle your brain and that's exactly what I wanted and that's exactly what I got. ... The bass is very satisfying on these IEMs, so much so that when I went to EQ the bass I didn't increase it by as much as I thought I would."
"Ohk I like bass so it's good for me"

"The second is distinct lack of dynamic range. ... Listening to the Rain Song by Zeppelin at about the 6:02 mark and Satyam Shivam Sundaram by Thievery Corporation at about the 2:52 mark distinctly show that lack of dynamic range."
"made the Aria sound like a muffled boomy mess too"
"shitty bass"

"The tuning vent thing is a really annoying, poorly thought-out gimmick that makes the tape mod essential, so you're locked into one tuning anyway. ... But also with the stock tips, you frequently have to fiddle around to avoid channel imbalances if you don't tape mod it, because the simple act of inserting the IEM into the ear has a random chance of changing the tuning."
"Stock tips SUCK."
"the ... eartips are both trash"

"Same, they are extremely fragile."
"I just got this cable cause the vivace doesnt come with one"
"No case, which is kind of a let-down since there are cheaper IEMs that do bring a carrying case or at least a pouch."

"Well, I do agree with the trash cable part of the comment in reference to QKZ x HBB. I disliked that cable more than any other stock cable I ’ve come across and couldn’t replace it fast enough."
"The cable was atrocious"

191x7 1.0I have 10-ish different models in the 10€ to 150€ range, mostly for PUBG and about 3000 hours in the game. Here are my top picks: - Tripowin Vivace 35€ - Simgot EM6L 120€ - Truthear Crinacle Zero blue 60€ (need AMP&DAC) - QKZ x HBB 20€ In that order. For other games, the Simgot and Crinacle Zero jump higher. The next ones can do, but not competitive: - Moondrop Quarks DSP 15€ - 7Hz Salnotes Zero 25€ - Apple earpods 3.5mm 20€ - KZ Zex Pro Crn 40€ Can't recommend for PUBG: - Moondrop Chu 25€ - Brainwavz Omega 15€ I recommend checking Fresh Reviews on Youtube, he checked many pricier models...
abc133769 1.0i'd consider kz am16 balanced. high value set, nicely detailed and technical set nice for pinpointing footsets but has a nice amount of bass for immersive games and your music genres which tend to like some bass boost if those are out of budget tripowin vivace are a nice set for fps and should do everything else pretty well too
vivace are tuned pretty damn similarly to the zero 2s so best of both worlds, i'd still take vivace in your case
ActiveNL 1.0Yes, but that's pushing "budget". Tripowin Vivace has my vote.
Altair_Sound_201 1.0this IS, the kind of post that should be put here, don't ask based on price, ask based on musical taste, so you can give a recommendation 7 times better than the average truth. double recommendation, tripowin vivace, kiwi ears cadenza. either one will be exactly what you are looking for.
Anc3strale 1.0Sincerely some Tripowin Vivace with Azla asmr max clean everything u listed by miles in game. Also Delci Ae/Clean also are great.
So what's ur use scenario? My suggestion in general for whoever enter this hobby (it they care about gaming) is getting the Tripowin Vivace+ Azla asmr max tips (obbligatory with this iem) cus i think even up to 500 there is nothing (in game) that outperform by a huge margin this. So if u care about gaming u can choose this combo first and then also buy an iem where u can focus only on ur music preferences (+ having the Asmr max automatically open u the doors for every harsh treble iem, cus this can tame anything). And with 120 u can do something like: Vivace combo+ Kz Am16 bass (best Kz with Ba rn and pretty cheap on Ali, meanwhile the best DD from Kz is in their Kz Zenith that i put way above the Zero Red if the qc is good). Anyway my favorite iem under 50 are the Cadenza, i read someone above saying that the Zero red is overall better, but for me the Cadenza is way better than the Zero red (not in game) the timbre is of the Cadenza is better (Cadenza Berillium timbre is my favorite timbre even up to 300) and the bass hit more satisfing and that bump in the high give u an impression of high technicality and is pretty berable + they are way more comfortable (worst than the Red in gaming if u use the adapter and obv they have a worst final extension in the trebble as u can see in graphs) some people prefer the Kefine klean in this price range and overall can do more things (especially in gaming) but music wise i prefer Cadenza. So i covered the combos...now let's talk about the best all rounder/sets under 120 (sometimes with discount) Kiwi ears Airoso (incredible iem for music,for me the best, a direct upgrade from Cadenza, not the best in game but still usable) Kefine Delci Ae (great valuable iem) Simgot Ew300 (not great in game, but 🔥 music) Juzear Defiant (if the qc is good, pretty close level wise to the Airoso if not better for someone) Arti t10/t10 pro if u want to try planar Truthears Hexa (neutral and all rounder, exquisite, better than the Red, but can be boring) Simgot Em6L (great allrounder) Aful explorer (if u want to raise the volume, this is great, in game they kinda 🙃😅) Tanchjim Fission (best 1DD at this price) Idk if i forgot something but this should be pretty 😏. This is kinda it i think.
anxu69 1.0Okh so I'll buy vivace then.. vivace is 5$ cheaper than cadenza 😂
Ohk I like bass so it's good for me
Aoifaea 1.0Here's what I know from personal experience: 1. The chu 2 suffers from paint scratching issues. 2. The zero:2 had a cable that I hated and even though I think they've changed it, the current one doesn't look amazing. I've also had a freak manufacturing defect on one which was a pain to get replaced under warranty. I'd probably go with the cadenza or the vivace
ApolloMoonLandings 1.0I really like the Tripowin Vivace as my new favorite budget music IEM since the Vivace has a clear and natural overall tuning.
Nice review. I found the Vivace to be an enjoyable IEM in particular for its details. My only nitpick is that there is a bit too much more sub bass than bass. Yet this is a problem only with some tracks.
aychemeff 1.0Hey man, curious between the Zero 2 and the EW300, would the EW300 be a good upgrade if I liked the tuning on the Zero 2? Looking for something natural yet with good tonality and clarity (not too warm). I tried the Vivace recently and it actually sounded a touch warmer than the Zero 2 which I didn't care for.
benchbotch 1.0my first were moondrop chu 2. loved them to bits, but if i had to i wouldn’t get it again purely because of the moisture issue with the filters (i live in a high-humidity area) more recently got a tripowin vivace and am really liking it so far, so much so that i didn’t bother to autoeq or just even eq it in any way, because it sounded pretty much perfect to me stock
