XENNS - Tea (Gen 1/V1)

I had the tea og, it was a great set but a little too dark, volume s is very good too but as I said they shine with vocal tracks, I d prefer a more versatile set. Maybe the hype 4 is a better all-rounder, definitely not an upgrade but a sidegrade, for about 280€ maybe worth a try

I think the OG Tea was better in the treble than the new Pro… it lost some of its special sauce over the Mk2 and PRO. BUT it’s a winner all around so it’s a moot point. I still love the OG. It’s one of my favorite iems ever.

There is a set available on eBay in the states right now. They are truly wonderful. They were ahead of their time. They take EQ like a boss too. Wide bore tips are the way to go with this set. You don’t want anything in the way. It’s worth the price. I will never let mine go. I’ve been considering a second set just as a backup just incase. I am a huge fan of the original Mangird Tea as well. That was a special iem, also ahead of its time if you ask me.

If you are willing to spend roughly 300 then I would try the the aful p7. I've heard that they're great for bass and are vshaped. I was torn between them and the mangird teas but I ended up getting the latter cause I found a decent deal on aliexpress. I may even pick up the p7s one day still since I hear lot of great things about them. They are roughly 330 cad on Amazon but if you look on aliexpress then you could prob catch a pair for 300 then you slap a coupon that you find from reddit coupon megathreads and that'll shave the price down to 270. Aliexpress usually doesn't tax you either so you'll also be saving another 70-100 dollars from sales taxes depending on your province. I would have paid 180 in sales tax alone if I got the tea pros off Amazon lmao
