Estrella

I like something detailed, balance sound signature, and have a good technicalities. Honestly I really love my ew300 sound signature and Estrella detail. But yeah, still can't get both at one iem, yet

Same here, I don't like when the warm sound signature gets too dark. That's why I really like ew300. Honestly ziigaat odyssey is the way to go but sometimes it lacks the "Fun" that I want when listening to edm stuff. Aful p5+2 are also a great pick. Other iem that I've been used very often lately are juzear defiant, I think you will like this one.

The closest one to meta are tanchjim 4u, but if you ask about odyssey then you can try kefine klean

The Ziigaat Estrella are great for Pink Floyd but if you double your budget the Dunu Glacier is like hearing them for the first time.

Ziigaat Estrella $236 what a great deal I may buy another one as a backup.

In my mind the Ziigaat Estella can not be beat under $300.

I love my Ziigaat's Estrella and Odyssey but it dose seem ridicules how many slightly different models they are putting out. How about a truly endgame model for much less than others, Say a Thieaudio Monarch MKIV quality IEM for say $850.

Except for those of us who prefer the Ziigaat Estrella.

I like my Estrellas over my Hype 4s

I have several favorites for different situations and moods. For critical listening and the best sound I’ve heard, it’s the Canpur CP622B. The only problem with this IEM is the fit, I’m unable to wear them for more than a couple of hours. For just fun and exciting music it’s the Ziigaat Estrella with the Shortbus Audio tape mod. For sleep it’s either the Dunu Glacier or the Xenns Tea Pro. And for everyday listening it’s the FiiO FX17. I truly believe FiiO created a masterpiece with this set and I know it sounds crazy, but at $1500 I think it’s a bargain.

The IEMs that comes the closest to being an endgame set for less than $400 for me are the Xenns Tea Pro Kiwi Ears Punch Ziigaat Estrella Thieaudio Hype 4 Dunu DaVinci Moondrop Dusk Ziigaat Doscinco Simgot EM10

I personally really like the Melody Wing Venus, but the Ziigaat Odyssey or Estrella with the Shortbus Audio tape mod.

For me, it would be the Ziigaat Estrella with Shortbus Audio tape mod.

I've owned well over 200 IEMs and I don't recall the exact journey, but if you like bass I would recommend the Ziigaat Doscinco, Thieaudio Hype 4 or the Xenns Tea Pro. If you not sensitive to treble I would recommend either the YU9 Que or Ziigaat Estrella with Shortbus Audio tape mod. The Melody Wing Venus is a great set if you can find them for a decent price. The MP145 can be an endgame set especially with a good DAC/Amp.

A few I prefer to the Tea Pro, I normally like EST treble which most of this list incorporate in their sets. Canpur CP622B Fiio FX17 Dunu Glacier Thieaudio Monarch mk lll Thieaudio Origin Oriveti OH700VB Ziigaat Estrella (with Shortbus Audio mod) U.M. MEST mk ll Kiwi Ears Punch

The Ziigaat Odyssey is a good safe choice, I personally prefer the Ziigaat Doscinco or Estrella, they are going to have more bass. You may always want to check out the Canpur Silver Flash CX3-02 it has garbage accessories, but great tuning and technicalities.

The Canpur is neutral with a boosted bass, the Odyssey is a little warmer than the Canpur and not as detailed. The Doscinco is the most bass focused of all these sets and the Estrella, my personal favorite out of the four, is in between the Doscinco and the Odyssey, but I did do the Shortbus Audio tape mod on my set. The mod gives the set more mid-bass and helps give the mids more weight.

OK. I like V shapes closer to the extreme side like ZiiGaat Estrella for metal and balanced/neutral for rock like Aful Performer 8. New meta all rounders like Kiwi Ears Astral and Xenns Tea Pro are also good but I prefer more contrast and energy for metal. If you don't have any idea if you are sensitive to treble or how much bass you want, Astral and Tea Pro would be safe choices. Also check out some ThieAudio Hype 4 reviews.

I would most likely buy Cano Cristales if I didn't have ZiiGaat Estrella. It's the best V shape I have ever heard. Extremely colored and engaging, treble and bass are on the extremes and very resolving. But you have to be careful with the treble.

Yes, its treble is not smooth, it's very aggressive and peaky. It will be piercing on loud volumes. I could take it for 15 minutes, Estrella is better in that sense, I can do 30 minutes with it lol.
