I have read more than a few comments in the last week prior to writing my thoughts from unbelievers.

Even though both IEMs have 8 balanced armatures inside, the Every year the budget IEM space explodes with new flavors of the month. It’s impossible to keep up with all of them. I won’t even try. So instead, here are my impressions of a few popular budget IEMs that you might be curious about. Is the Cadenza worth the asking price?​The all-important question is, is the Cadenza worth the price. In this case, to me, this is almost a silly question. The Cadenza is tuned very well and performs very well, they are beautiful and built very well… my answer is a resounding yes! In fact, this is one of the rare times I’d say for certain that the iem I’m reviewing punches above its price. 100% yes! From the outside, it’s a 1.2 m four braided core laminated cable with a dull-orange tint that compliments Orchestra’s shell. It is terminated with a gold 2-pin 0.78mm and has a 3.5mm gold plug.I'm not a fan of lavish unboxing experiences knowing my money is being spend on accessories I'll never use and a heavy box that will cost a fortune to ship. So I heartily approve of Kiwi Ears' approach, funnelling the lion's share of manufacturing costs into what actually matters - the IEMs. The Orchestra model is an 8 balanced armature driver IEM designed as an all-purpose performance monitor. Tuned particularly with balance in mind, the frequency spectrum of the Orchestra is a perfect equilibrium of bass, mids, and treble. Comparing these two models directly, I would put comfort first, when it comes to insulation, the cadenza is the undisputed leader, but taking into account the fit, the T2 EVO is a safer choice thanks to its unique design. The Cadenza is darker and a bit less resolving. Tin HIFI in the T2EVO model, focusing primarily on a brighter presentation and a stronger accent, shows a bit more details, but the cadenza has a much smoother and creamier presentation. In addition, it features a 10mm beryllium diaphragm dynamic driver, which the company tells us: "Beryllium diaphragm drivers are still considered the pinnacle of dynamic drivers in speakers, headphones, and earphones." On the smaller side so should fit almost all and with correct tips get a great seal and noise isolation.

There is a hint of sub-bass extension in the lower frequencies, which are primarily concentrated in the mid-bass. Instruments​Instrumentation like violin, flute etc. they all have good definition and sound full enough to pull off a realistic performance on most of my library. Cymbals and HI-Hats could use a bit more body, but they aren’t too recessed for my liking on most recordings. Customers have to bear any form of custom/import/processing fees that are applicable for your parcel.It does scale with source, Hidizs XO for example, will make the soundstage slightly bigger whereas on M2 Macbook Air’s 3.5mm dac, soundstage is slightly small and everything is quite forward Vocals are the star of the show here and stand out above all else. They’re natural in tone and accurate in size. Just try not to get too carried away with your symphonic jams, because the edges of notes might get a little soft. But at least your ears will be treated to some delicious auditory goodness. Treble Staging on the Orchestras is above average, but not exceptional. It is spacious enough to have a distinction of the position of the different instruments and vocals.

Hi, I have lots of cables and eartips spare for iem rolling/upgrade , also sourced with good balanced amp. i am currently on Dunu Titan S all day. other iem i use now including Tin T2Plus and HZ Heart Mirror ( nozzle micropore taped to slightly reduce hi mids and treble by 20% ) im a neutral&natural kinda guy with a hint or treble or low elevation is fine. I couldn’t get as sealed off of a fit on this compared to other IEMs, but it’s doable for the passive noise removal.

Over the last 6 months or so, the extreme budget range has seen some very good entries, each one raising the bar just a little bit more than the last. Some had tunings that I preferred more than others but there was no doubt that the ultra cheap IEM world has seen some fierce competition, which is great for those looking for good sound at an even better price. The BGVP DM8 is an 8 balanced armature flagship universal IEM, with 2 Sonion drivers for the low frequencies, 1 Sonion driver and 1 Knowles driver for the mid-range, 2 Knowles drivers for the Treble, and 2 more Knowles drivers for the higher frequencies. Everything sounds clean and presentative, the treble is calming and smooth, and there are no overtly irritating undertones. I'm delighted to report that the musicality is not all over the place but under control, and the top treble has enough extension to sound fuller and richer with good note weight. The female vocals don't strike me as being as expressive as they should be, but tonally they are correct. The vocals have a nice feeling of depth and resonate extremely well in the treble range. The instruments have a dubious tone; they are not shrill or drab, but neither do they sound sparkly. Practically speaking, they have the right traits and environment to sound pure and natural. More vigor and resolving abilities are released in the lower mid range. They have a direct presentation and a silken voice. There is an excellent balance between the lower treble and upper midrange. The instruments have more floor and presence in the mix, while the vocals are more good and emotive. The treble area has a calm and dense overall appearance. Here we have a Questyle CMA Twelve DAC/Amplifier. The amplifier section in the Twelve is amazing. It has consistently brought out the most performance out of every single headphone I own compared to any other amplifier, of course with the exception of my tube amplifiers.

1 YEAR WARRANTY

There is no real harshness, although recordings that are already harsh in their presentation are not tamed, showing no sign of anything being dampened in this regard.
