It's an interesting product. I like all the tip options in this pack. It's a good beginner pack to know how each tip material can affect the sound quality. All the tip material & quality are good. The silicone tips & foam tips in the pack are good, like those stock tips we get with IEM. But the surprising tips are the latex tip & the hybrid foam tip. Although the latex tip feels a little rubbery in feel & is a dust magnet, but it's very comfortable, provides a good seal and does enhance bass & treble response slightly. And for the hybrid tip, it's like best of both worlds. It gives the comfort of a silicone tip as well as provides the seal of a foam tip. I'm not a big fan of foam tip in general because of how they feel in ear & it's very difficult to put them in the ear, but these hybrid tips removed all those problems for me.
This is one of the best modular cables I have ever seen in this price range. Microphonic is there as the nylon type of material is used for wrapping the cable. But microphonic is very minimal compared to other similar cable I have used. But, once the music starts playing, the microphonic would be gone. connector quality is very premium, on both the 3.5 / 4.4 termination as well as at 2-pin connector end. I love how easy is to replace the 3.5 & 4.4 end. It's highly recommended if you are looking for any premium modular cable on budget. It's one of my favorite modular cables along with the Moondrop aria 2's stock modular cable.
Sound quality is amazingly good.
Sounds exactly like the Salnotes Zero with a bit more bass. Has that same Harman curve with upper midrange bump and reduced lower mids making male vocals sound thin. Good resolution/detail and treble is perfectly done. Fit is good and I like that these are very light.
Paired these with kz zs12 pro x's. It works very well. Blue LED can't be turned off and is very annoying when watching movies or using your phone with these plugged in at night. 1 star removed for the LED.
Purchased in November, writing the review February. These are worth the money. For an entry level IEM the sound is quiet pleasant. I bought a second pair for my wife and she has been using them almost every day listening to music when she goes to work. The only con would be the weight but that's personal preference. Pair these with a dac and better wires and you'll be good to go. Wire in the box is not up to the mark for me.
But the sound intensity decreases a bit
This is an valuable addition to a list of Hiby DAPs that moves my music listing experience to a different level. I love that it is compact but still has power enough to drive my IEMs and TWS. Im very much satisfied with the battery back up and its standby time which is an added advantage to music lovers. It was able to drive mp3 m4a and flac with out any issues
Seamlessly blends the elements of audio that an audiophile desires in an iem with easy to use touch controls decent battery life good looks and decent software making it an all around excellent budget wireless IEM
This is the best midrange of any iem under 2k and midrange is where music lives.
I have own onix aplha as a dac and this is definitely a upgrade in that regards
For 2.8k it's a steal. The sound quality is honestly amazing and it's worth getting for that alone. Only gripe I have is that case which doesn't have a lid but at least it looks cool
Just treat to your ears.Sound separation, vocals,treble sounds amazing. Not for basshead.
The Castor Pro Enhanced Bass Edition Black IEM earphones deliver rich sound with dual 10mm drivers, offering deep bass and clear mids and highs. A four-stage tuning switch lets you customize the audio. They feature a durable zinc alloy casing, ergonomic design, and an oxygen-free copper cable for better sound. The in-line control with a mic adds convenience. Great value for quality sound on a budget.
They fit perfectly and are absolute banger for the price for gaming. The biggest plus factor is the comfort, I can easily wear them for 3+ hours without any issues.
From Blon bl2 to BGVP DN2
The jump on dunu was really worth it
Almost every genre songs this IEM drive at another level of dept n separation
Only flaw i could pin point some jpop heavy electric or high pinch voice of singers was little intolerable but other than it skillet and every other genre it nail it..
Accesories are another level really feel like worth the price and best customer care...
Tried every format from flac mqa to dsd . movies or series or anime . this earphone r all in one.
Bass timing silent timing Treble timing is all so perfectly tune (tried on LGV50)
They have done a very good job , actually I got the wrong product they didn't took much time and responded so well. The product was returned and replaced with another one within 5 days . They even called me after every delivery . Amazing job "The Audio Store".šā£ļø
If you are looking for a pair of headphones that would be your end game on a budget, then look no further, Edition XS is the way to go.
I have been using these for about 2 years and finally I can say, these cans a robust, dynamic and neutral to slightly bright.
But it also packs a punchy bass and has a good soundstage.
All you need is a pair of Edition XS and further you can keep leveling up the sound quality by upgrading cables to balanced ones, getting good DAC/AMPS and also modding the cans with new filters and grill.
After trying different ear tips I finally like these ear tips most for comfort and music listening
Wide and open soundstage, Fun bass, Great bass in extension, Natural tuning, narrow tube, Interchangeable sound tubes, Excellent build quality, Good cable with interchangeable plugs and 12mm Beryllium-coated driver, good value for the price.
Pros:
1. Sound is excellent for the price. I would say moondrop chu level sound quality. It follows the harman target with a little but turned down treble. Many people find the harman target a bit harsh at the top end. But this solves the issue.
2. I never had connectivity issues. Pairing was easy. As soon as I bring out the earbuds from the case, the buds automatically connects to my android phone.
Cons
1. App could be better. Obviously the app and other functionality won't be at the level of other mainstream tws like bose, samsung etc.
2. The fit. As someone who mostly uses wired iems. The tws does not feel as comfortable as the iems. For my ears, it's only comfortable for an hour or so. After that, it gets really uncomfortable.
