The Heart Mirror used to be my default recommendation for the best budget neutral IEM, but this mantle has been taken by the Titan S as of today. Timbre on the Titan S is authentic for vocals and acoustic instruments, though note weight is on the thinner side. If it is plastic sealed when you get it, it should remain plastic sealed. Some types of goods such as CIEMs and custom cables cannot be returned.

We previously reviewed the T2, T3 , T4 from the same series, and we even had the chance to get our hands on the P1 , the flagship of the brand. But, recently, the brand has been updating its first lineup, with “plus” version, offering better sound and flush design. In theory, LCP provides exceptional performance with low distortion in the output signal. It is no surprise that the past year was the year of the LCP hype-train, and some other popular single DD sets such as the Tin HIFI T3 Plus and Moondrop Aria 2021 also use LCP diaphragms. Opening exactly the same as the two previous iterations of the T-series, one opens the blue cardboard much like a book. Pretty cool, actually. But this time, there is a cutout on top so one may view the detached IEM’s nestled softly in a foam insert. With the soft gray color of the T3, you could almost imagine there is a sleeping tike inside…almost. The neutral signature, good technicalities, and analytical nature of the Titan S make them a very suitable pair of IEMs for critical listening and even studio work. Even so, they are not sterile, due to a slight bass boost. BassYou must return an item in the same condition as it was received. You must also include, in the same condition as it was received: Accidents, abuse, misuse, improper installation, problems with electrical power, acts of third parties. Soundstage, imaging, and layering are particular highlights on the Olina, and when amplified well, the music can sound holographic. Timbral accuracy is good for acoustic instruments, but female vocals can sound very nasal at times. Bass I view these two LCP giants as complementary sets, and they bring different tunings to the CHIFI budget buffet table. Vs. HZSound Heart Mirror

The low end in the T3 Plus is exceptional and actually i didn’t have any big expectations with the Tin product especially in the low end but surprisingly the low end is just BAM! The Aria have a slightly more natural timbre but they do suffer from complaints of the paint bubbling or peeling off the shell, which should not be an issue with the all metal shell of the Titan S.

Ear tips There are 3 variants of eartips included here. Do explore tip-rolling to see what suits your preferences. The vocal presentation is very clean, but male vocals sound a bit thin to my ears. However, female vocals are really enjoyable on the EM6L. In fact, I would say that female vocals sound even better on this than on the Xenns Top.
