(total 1-3 mins read) KBEar Ormosia is KBEar's latest hybrid 1DD+2BA IEM. It retails for $99usd and comes in either red or gray (Red one is super super sexy!). Packaging is really well done and comes with countless eartips + KBEar's Pleather Case. In terms of fit, these fit almost exactly like the BL03—but with a longer nozzle. In fact, the shell looks so much like the BL03, I am convinced that the shape of the shell is inspired by the BLON BL03. Nevertheless, the fit fine in my ears. I prefer to wear them over-ear instead of cable down though...

The Dunu Titan S is probably one of the best 1DD IEM you can buy for under $100usd. Technicality wise, it beats the Moondrop Aria slightly and beats the Tin T3 Plus by a HUGE margin. In terms of tonality, just like the Aria and T3 Plus, the Titan S is also tuned close to the Harman 2019 Target, but with lesser bass boost (refer to FR graph below). Bass is clean...
