LinsoulKiwi Ears Cadenza 10mm Beryllium Dynamic Driver IEM 3D Printed with Detachable Interchangeable Plug 0.78 2pin 3.5mm IEM Cable for Musician Audiophile (Blue)

So I’m by no means an audiophile. My only basis for reference are AirPod pros and Samsung Galaxy Bud Pros, but I can say for certain that these sound better than both of them. I use Apple Music and YouTube, and the audio quality is amazing. Everything sounds clear and crisp, I can hear things that I normally never heard with either of the Bluetooth pairs, and the sound staging/Stereo sound is amazing as well. All for a cheaper price than those to (Granted Bluetooth earbuds are more for comfort than high fi audio). The design on these are my main praise. If someone didn’t know any better, they would probably think they cost hundreds of dollars! The earbud cable has a design so that the cord wraps around your ears, so you these will be pretty comfortable for prolonged use. The earbud box also comes with 3 different designs of ear tips, all with a small medium and large fit for every ear tip. I have used these for about 8 hours a day and can say that I rarely notice the cord, and the design does not strain my ears (though this can differ depending on your ear shape). Of course, all earbuds that go into your ears after prolonged use can cause some discomfort, but you can midi-gate this by finding an ear tip size that sits comfortably in your ear. So far, I have not experienced any cord issues with the earbuds, although I will say that if you use a USB C to Aux adapter like I do, you may experience sudden disconnections, but this is most likely not the fault of the earbuds themselves, rather the fault of the USB C port on your device as it can loosen over time due to charging and the adapter if you have to take it out a lot. If you would like to test this, you can find a device that has a headphone jack and see if moving around has any effect on connectivity.Overall, I am in love with these earbuds, but if you currently have a pair of AirPod Pros and aren’t really interested in higher quality audio, I would not consider these as a necessity, as the audio quality isn’t to far off. If you are looking for comfort ONLY and or a pair of earbuds for use while being active, then I would also not recommend these as the cable may be a nuisance and or you may yank the cable out of the headphone jack by accident. I would highly recommend finding a pair of Bluetooth headphones that are right for you. If you are like me and looking to get that boost in audio to enjoy your favorite songs and YouTubers, then I would highly recommend these as a budget option for hi fi audio.

Bass: As with most sets <$100, the bass is probably the focus of these. These have a relatively mild V-shape but don't go overboard. They actually have a really nice punch. These have a more subbass focused with some a hint of a midbass punch. While I prefer a stronger midbass presence, these are undoubtedly exciting to listen to. Luckily, these don’t exhibit a strong softness either. They have decent weight to notes and a nice sense of grandness to it. Texture to the bass is generally pretty decent also but nothing exceptional. Overall though, these are done quite well.Mids: The midrange is tuned well but has some tradeoffs. Tuned rather flat with a bump to vocals which is where some problems start to show. Vocals are generally positioned close, though female vocals stand out easier. Male vocals sound a little “recessed” in comparison, but generally have a nice warmth to them. I put quotations as it is just relative to female vocalists. Electric guitars have a nice edge to them without sounding overly sharp. Flute instruments sound rather pleasant as well. String instruments sound forward but not overly done. With that being said, male vocals seem to be the weak point of the mids if you are looking forward male vocals. Solid performance otherwise!Treble: This is where things get spicy. Treble extends quite nicely though starts falling off towards the last octaves. These have a strong presence that can either be your jam or be quite fatiguing. There’s a lot of energy that makes cymbals really pop out, especially in metal tracks. Similarly, violins display a grand sense of ambience/atmosphere which is quite fun. Surprisingly, there is still a slight lack of air, though I expected much worse. Because of its emphasis, these might be a dealbreaker if you want something for longer listening sessions. While not sibilant, these have a hint of harshness to it. If you like treble as much as I do and want an exciting listen, these might be worth considering. If you are treble sensitive you may want to reconsider.Soundstage/Imaging: Staging is decent and imaging is similar if a little worse. Not super wide or narrow and positional accuracy is surprisingly pretty decent even on busier tracks. Nothing too exceptional but it works.Detail/Technical Performance: Solid. Not the most resolving but definitely really good. A step below below the Aria/Titan S but provides more than enough detail.Overall Tuning: I decided to put this here as an additional comparison to similarly tuned IEMS. If you are curious as to what the Shuoer S12 sounds like, these will give you a decent idea. Both are tuned to be a V-Shape, with the S12 providing significantly more details and resolution. Bass is executed more tastefully on the Cadenza while the S12 is more fun and even more exciting to listen to. Treble is quite elevated on both but more so on the S12. Mids are the “weak point” on both.Comfort/Accessories: Superb fit. Comfort is quite excellent as well. The nozzle seems to be on the medium/average size. Nozzle length is great neither being too short nor too long. Accessories are fine. Enough eartips for most to find a good seal. Cable is great! No interchangeable connections but that’s to be expected. More than happy and looks like it can handle some light abuse. I generally don't speak about aesthetics, but I absolutely love the way these look. The colors (I chose purple as it is my favorite color) look stunning and will definitely catch the eyes of others.TLDR; A very fun set that surprised me. These have a wow factor to them that makes them quite enjoyable and worth considering. On the other hand, these can be potentially fatiguing. They have a fun energetic sound that should appeal to many. They’re definitely not perfect, and won’t be a “default recommendation” but if you’re looking to spice things up, these are a great option. Definitely one of my personal favorites under $100! Objectively I would rate these a 4/5, but these are after my treble filled heart.

As a audio enthusiast who is extremely picky about sound quality, not just your average joe who is buying a baying a set of earbuds. These Actually Sound Very good but, the really focus on the highs and mids, lets say your listening to music on you home stereo what has a bass and treble knob, its like turning the bass knob down all the way, the bass is there but nots not the focus of these headphones, there very bright/high mid dominant making the music sound very clear and detailed, these will get you pretty darn close to audiophile sound quality but you may find the low end to be lacking. im listening to these on a professionals headphone amp designed for audio engineers who produce, mix and master music, i have also listened to these on my phone as well. amazing sound for the money but the low end or bass has been turned down significantly when they tuned these earbuds. if you want bass these are not for you, if you want crystal clear and detailed with just enough low end to be noticeable these would be a great choice. they give you a overall smooth and natural sound, even tho they are quite bright they do not have a harsh or brittle sound like you normally get out of a inexpensive yet bright set of headphones or earphones, these sound like a high quality, clear, detailed speaker with the bass turned down a a little bit too much.. i overall love them for the value and clarity but i miss the warmth and low end that these are missing.
