"First thing I noticed was how clear everything was, very resolving for the price ... Class leading resolution, detail, and imaging ... I can easily pick out the instruments due to the superb layering and separation ... Amazing value to performance given that it's only $500 ... Endgame level technicalities only beaten by more expensive sets like the Prestige LTD, Crimson, CAD12, STORM, etc ... If you want to experience endgame levels of performance without breaking the bank then the TOP PROs would be it."
"my Xenns Mangird Top are much better than all the <100$ iems I have ... the novas are actually just a little behind the Xenns in sound quality"
"I have the OG top, and it's easily my favorite of all my iems (about 13 sets).. the 1st time I put them on, it really was like listening to music for the 1st time..."

"Variations have shoddy built quality ... I couldn't stand the spilled glue that had leaked from underneath the faceplate to the smoky transparent body as well."
"I’ve been using the Mangird Top for about 2 years now and have no complaints."
"Sturdy leather case that gives off a more premium feel ... Cable is sturdy in a silver white/gel like material ... Interchangable 3.5/4.4/6.5mm"

"I'd consider both to be mid volume sets, the top has more sparkle when cranked up, so the tea pro is a little easier for longer listening"
Yeah me too, I have some very expensive sets, like the IE600, and I prefer the EW300 over the IE600... I still prefer my Ziigaat Odyssey, or my Mangird Xenns Top, but damn the Simgot is indeed very very good for the asked price
I initially thought the top sounded better than the tea pro. But after spending more time with both, I'm not so sure anymore. The tea pro sounded more balanced to me, the top has a lot more sub bass presence and is more V shaped imo. Both have great separation and sound stage, but the bass on the tea pro still sounded cleaner to me.
My top pro is still on preorder so I cant compare it yet. But if you're refering to the normal top to the tea pro, I'd say they're about the same for the soundstage, with the tea pros being slightly clearer in that regard because the sub bass rumble isnt as much as the top. I'd consider both to be mid volume sets, the top has more sparkle when cranked up, so the tea pro is a little easier for longer listening
Started with the Thieaudio Hype 2. Sold those and bought the Xenns Mangird Top with the 7hz Thunderbird cable. Like jewelry. Matched perfectly. Sound was just as incredible. Love them. My wife stole them and said what Xenns Top? She uses them with the Divinus Velvet Wide Bore smalls. Got the Hidizs MP145 cuz I have huge ears and wanted a planar. Then got the Thieaudio Hype 10, and damn they're good. Then Fatfreq got with HBB and created a goddamn mess for months, but when the Deuce got here.....slammin bass. Then Thieaudio came out with the Oracle Mk3 and holy shit I was in heaven. Bought the Kiwiears Punch just cuz ultimate bass, but I hardly use them. Since the wife snatched the Top it's a toss up of the Oracle Mk3, Hype 10 and the MP145, with the Oracle being first
There were 3 IEMs for me. Ziigaat Odyssey for the tuning, I just love it and it fits my preference. Xenns Mangird Top (not the PRO as I've not heard it myself yet) but even then it was my benchmark for anything sub 600. Lastly my current most expensive and a personal "endgame" set the Thieaudio Prestige LTD, it might loose out on certain aspects if compared to other similar priced IEMs but personally to me it's just the smoothest and most lush sounding IEM I've ever put in my ear.
I have 2 I would suggest Xenns Mangird Top Fatfreq deuce
I have the OG top, and it's easily my favorite of all my iems (about 13 sets).. the 1st time I put them on, it really was like listening to music for the 1st time... I don't have the Tops Pro and I don't know if it's even worth it because I have the OG, but I'm pretty sure they are as good as people are saying that they are. Did thus guy get paid... idfk and idc.. make an informed decision before you buy a set.
I stopped at the og Xenns top.. kinda wish I had never bought them so I could get the xenns top pro lol.. but as it stands, I will not buy them because im 100% sure they dont sound that much better than the og top, if they even sound better (to me).
The 1st time I put on my Xenns top, it was magical lol.. I loved them soo much that I bought a 2nd pair when my 1st pair was ran over by a truck.. I've bought a few different tuned iems since then but the top is still the best sounding to me.
Have you tried the Xenns Mangird Top? I have it and the Monarch MKIII and still prefer it. I want Xenns to make a $1k IEM badly.
Currently daily XENNS Mangird Top but I’m looking to try something different just for gaming. I mainly play EFT and COD. Do the Aretes have precise imaging? As far as hearing distinctively if someone is above/below and how close or far they are? I’ve heard the soundstage is pretty solid. Or if there’s something else around the $200 mark you’d recommend, I’m open to suggestions.
Thanks for the reply, I’ve been using the Mangird Top for about 2 years now and have no complaints. They are solid for music and gaming. I just have an itch to try something new. I’ve been playing EFT a lot more recently and with the Mangirds I can hear people but can’t pin point their exact location.
I’ve been using the xenns top in fps gaming for the past 2 years and love them. I recently picked up the Ziigaat Arete and have been enjoying those as well. I mainly play COD and EFT. The audio is complete garbage in COD and extremely good in EFT for directional/footsteps.
I used Xenn Mangird Tops for years and they were great. I then briefly used Monarch MKIVs and while they’re every bit as excellent as people say, they don’t work well for my ears over longer sessions. I’ve since moved to RSV-MKIIs and they’re all exceptional.
Moondrop Chu, and no. The Kato is the only Moondrop iem I still have and use. I liked the Aria but gave it to a friend to try to get him into iems (I failed). The Chu was good enough to get me into iems, but not good enough to keep me listening. I don't even know where they are now, lol. Of the early iems that I bought, I only have and listen to the Truthear Hexa (lifeless but decent, with wonderful imaging) and that Truthear Harmon-tuned one that Crinacle did with the subwoofer (I forget the name). It is fatiguing, but it is exciting until it wears me down. Good for techno. I listen mostly to the Aful P5, the Chopin, the Letshour S12, and the Kato now. Sometimes at home, I listen to the P8 and the Xenn Mangrid Top (they are too expensive to lug around with me--I have a $200 limit on iems that I'm willing to take in my backpack).
I love how clean the Titans are and since they have just a few BAs and a DD the "coherency" is there, and much better then my old Xenns Top,Up.. granted a half as expensive pairs but im shocked actually how good and "quality" these sound and such a massive upgrade in all regards not just the bass in my opinion.
