"these do perform extremely well in vocal and instrument centric songs. ... everything else felt like a day and night difference between the hexa and the enco buds, especially vocals."
"The truthear hexa are the best neutral iem under 100$ right now ... Tons of reviewers have mentioned that the hexa competes with iems up to 150$"
"The best thing about Hexa is the mid range, the vocal is clear and the upper mid clarity and separate of instruments is very good."

"The Hexas are a benchmark already on that price set."
"In my opinion incredibly so the details on that lem I'd say compete in the 250usd price range they aren't called the baby blessing 2 for nothing this is in reference to the hexa"

"This is especially good because I also game and play instruments, I want to hear all the analytical nuances and this is doing it for me."
"Hexa for movies and gaming for that extreme clarity"

"Coming to gaming, again it performed very well in busy gunfights. U can easily separate the footsteps, gunfights etc."
"In games, it feels like I have a radar because footsteps are soo clear lol ... in games the footsteps are very clear and do not get muffled."

"I personally felt the bass was pretty anemic on it and I'm not a bass-head. ... Less bass than the ER2xr, Blessing 2, Blessing 2 Dusk, IE 200 etc. ... Very thin sounding. ... They have less bass than the Moondrop Blessing 2. ... They have less bass than the Etymotic ER2xr. ... They have less bass than the Sennheiser IE200. ... Just not enough bass and I"m no bass-head."
"I find myself unconsciously constantly trying to look for details in a song whenever I put these on considering i just want to listen casually to make up for the loss in bass. ... I might need to try the pure, didn't like hexa much ... I can't even listen to the hexas, unless I EQ them. ... The Hexa is pretty light on bass ... Definitely not the music, because my wide range of iems sound great. All of them sound better than the hexas to me. It's just the boring signature of the hexa. ... Definitely not the music because all my iems sound great with the music and my headphones. Just hexa is a boring sound signature. Not everyone is gonna like the neutral sound. It's the most boring iem I own. ... Eventually I'll just sell em just to get it out of my collection. ... Yea, the Hexa has a just a bit of bass"
"It's the lack of bass! ... I need bass and weight to enjoy music, and the Hexa was just lifeless, like all the emotion was sucked away."

"Same here I was using them for gaming I had all the truth ears up to the xenns iems for competitive fps. Then I got super lucky found a brand new sealed Astro a40 with the mixamp like a month ago bought it for $300 and i will never go back to iems like ever ever"
"Having gamed with the Hexa... don't. ... Its spatial imaging is pretty rough"
"I find its imaging weird when distinguishing footsteps approaching from front compared to behind."

"not very comfy for my ears so I sold them ... my only issue with the Hexa was that it was not comfy for long term use, my ears would hurt after, maybe due to their size or shape."
"Hexa is one of the least comfy iems i've tried, it just has such a weird shape"
"I find the stock one very uncomfortable to wear for long time."

0D3-2-J0Y 1.0Truthear Hexa is more towards neutral-bright sound signature, I don't think neutral is a proper descriptor for it these days.
134124fx 1.0Same here, I had the Chu 2 and then upgraded to the Hexa. At first the bass felt a bit weak, but after some EQ it really came alive. Still super detailed and smooth, but now with better bass impact. Definitely a solid upgrade.
240psam 1.0In ear monitors. I use Truthear Hexa but there is plenty more out there at a good price. If not then I use Beyerdynamic dt770s. IEMs feel much better in terms of spacing and immersion imo.
2manyphases 1.0Don't have experience with the expensive stuff. But I do think Hexa's are one of the best I have heard. Tho you might wanna look into Kotori Audio's Zephyr. I listened to them side by side and my god. I think it is better. But that's just my opinion.
I am a newbie with just 2 cheap IEM's and wanted to try some for my more expensive 3rd upgrade. I made a first impressions post on reddit for a lot of IEM's I tried over at a store. I'm copy pasting it here. Yes I'm fangirling lol. " Excuse me, this will be obnoxious... OH MY FUCKING GOD. THEY ARE SO. FUCKING. GOOD. IF I HAD THE BUDGET I WOUDLNT EVEN BLINK BEFORE EMPTYING MY WALLET. I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THEM. 10/10. IF I SEE SOMEONE WEARING THIS, FUCK YOU, I WILL STEAL THEM. Phew. Anyway. Here are my impressions. These are chonkers in terms of height outside your ears. I keep my IEM's in my pocket without worrying about them. I have never used any cases. These definitely need to be kept in their case while travelling. However they fit amazingly. They have a very odd shape which made me think they won't fit, but they had the best fit among all I tried. They sound super natural. They are my perfect IEM's I don't even know how anything can be better than this. And are definitely an upgrade from Truthear Hexa (my favourite except this one) and I think is definitely value for money. I say these are the best IEM's I have heard. Suprisingly even my friend liked them a lot. The sound has great "texture". The start of Bille Eilish's "watch" has a matchstick burning and it sounds PERFECT. Honestly If I speak about them more I would just be giving vague words like "AMAZING" and "PERFECT". Honestly if your budget can stretch, buy these. Or atleast test them out. If these had a waifu on the box art I would be stealing these from their warehouse. (And yes I do think having a waifu on the box makes IEM's sound better, got a problem?) Hand's down the best thing to exist for me. Though it's a chonker so makes me sad I can't bring it with me everywhere. Oh also, the wire was meh. Definitely pretty average cable (had the same quality as tanchjim 4u which is a 4.6k IEM) I say 8/10 overall just coz of practicality of using them in daily life and taking them with you. But sound is easy 11/10. "
My personal rankings for stuff I've heard. I'm a neutral/neutral bright guy. (My post on reddit goes somewhat in depth on all of these, sadly I'm not very technical in my language) Kotori Audio Zephyr (Duh) Truthear Hexa Tangzu Yu Xuan Ji (might be too bright for some but easily looks the prettiest by a *BIG* margin) Truthear Gate (My current set, would upgrade to one of the options in the list in a few months) Tanchjim 4u (Bang for buck) Truthear x Crinacle blue 2 (tachjim 4u has better value) Aful Magicone (very similar to hexa) Moondrop May (A default starter set for almost everyone regardless of taste.) Letshouer s08 (not my taste, great value, premium for the price) Letshouer dz4 (not my taste, great value) Moondrop Chu 2 (My previous set that are lying around somewhere) Tangzu x hbb Xuan Nv (just because of the fit) Kotori Audio Vampire I'll check out your YouTube!
2wcp 1.0I tried ie200 and hexa I'd pick hexa as the better all rounder but comfort wise ie200 is better imo
33RhyvehR 1.0Still actually the 7HZ Zero 2. Bunnys spike in the uppers are not fun, Castor pro bass is a bit odd but enjoyable at least, waner 2 is tooo vocal. Pure and hexa are mid. Pure neither has enjoyable bass or mids. Hexa is shouty. EM6L is thin. Explorer is dark asf. The only one of these I've had moments of "Oh shit" and jumping up because I thought the sound was next to me, was from the Zero 2. My collection goes into the kilobucks
404site_not_found 1.0so true, it doesn't have no bass, it's tasteful
4ndrew223 1.0The truthear hexa are the best neutral iem under 100$ right now
Tons of reviewers have mentioned that the hexa competes with iems up to 150$, so I wouldn’t worry too much abt that,I’ve never used 6.3 so I can’t comment on that, the iem is actually much smaller in person, is the most comfortable truthear iem behind the gate
That’s how I felt initially but after a while I got used to it, still rocking them after 5 months
5-min_man 1.0honestly it depends on what games you want to play tbh, is it competitve fps or rpg and so on. Regardless i would not recommend the truthear hexa, it lacks bass so there would be a lack of impact.
aa_mika 1.0One more vote for Hexa. Very natural sound, good build quality.
