OD200 - The soul, The feel, The sensation
Some of the best unboxing experience, Oriveti seems pretty generous with accessory (-1 points for no magnetic box tho :sweat_smile: )

If you're interested in frequency respond comparision, here's the link
Disclamer:
+ i'm a normal asian dude with some music producing background
+ i like clean balanced sound signature with focus on sub bass and lower treble, especially looking for a good dynamism and harmonic playthrough
+ i like vocal, not necessary mid dominant, can consider myself as treblehead
+ 60-68db listening session
+ 4/10 is average (moondrop quarks), 6/10 is good realm (Tanchjim Kara)
*** Need a good source to play it to it's full potential

- Bass (6/10):
A bold bass with lot of air, the bass roll off around 80hz, quite relaxing (which i like), depend on the source it might improve bass detail
- Mid (6,5/10): Unagressive mid with just enough pinna gain, lack of texture and sound a little dull/dry (when listen to electric instrument) but quite expressive in tone and timbre (when it come to natural instrument / orchestra)
- Vocal (7,5/10): Lack of body/chest voice, natural in tune and positioning. **Can easily trick and trap you if you're vocal lover!
- Treble (6/10): Sound a little similar to Oxygen, lack of excitement, good detail but not much **Can improve with good source but still, not much
- Detail (5,3/10): Macro detail (5,5/10), Micro detail (5/10)
- Soundstage (9/10): 3D staging, middle of the "Square" staging, more height would be welcome
- Imaging (5,5/10): Overall blurry, good height placement but everything else just blurry
Bias (10/10): Warm "relax" neutral
Overall: 6,5/10
Me as a vocal lover was captured right at the first listening, the expressive nature of OD200 gave me chills whenever i listen to some good vocal focus song. I would wholeheartedly recommend these to anyone who have vocal based library like mine. Well 200$ spent! Also nice accessary to boost.

Here's my review of Oriveti OD100 (Stock - Divinus Velvet)
graph (1).png

If you're interested in graph comparision, here's the link
- Bass (6/10): Bold bass with good elasticity, quite fun and have a lot of dynamic, still lacking in detail and extension.
- Mid (5/10): Uncomfortable due to high pinna gain which masked detail in uppermid / lower treble, while sounding good with some particular instrument i don't think it's justify for that high peak
- Vocal (6,5/10): Slightly nasal vocal, but quite realistic and robust, male vocal come thin and unfun, however with modern song these actually sound good
- Treble (5,8/10): Slight sibilance (high volume), realist percursion rendering, lack air, sound a little metallic
- Detail (5,3/10): Macro detail (6/10), Micro detail (4,5/10)
- Soundstage (7/10): Consistent orchestra staging with good wildth and height, lack depth
- Imaging (5,5/10): Lack layering back to front, lack microspacing left to right, better than average iem but that about it
Bias (8/10): W shape
Overall: 5,8/10
If these are 50$ i would recommend these instantly, these are much better value than Ikko OH10 (imo), IEM have evolve so quickly that these fun iem kinda like a gem that you might missed the sound of them!

Ola Bass, "The true apostle of Blessing"
Pros: - Great tuning (Bass boosted DF neutral), as a mini Blessing 2, they carried all pros and cons of Blessing 2
- Uncolored sound signature
- Crazy detail (not as detail as B2, but close to Timeless)
- Great dynamism
- Bass packed more punch than B2
- Good isolation, great for daily drive, from outdoor to sleep, all good, even if you decide to take a shower
- Water resistance (haven't tried)
Cons: - 80 detail / 20 musical that might not appealing for a lot of people
- Hard to swallow fit
- Unforgiving with poor recording track
- Not for Bass Head, Treble Head
- Somewhat thin and too analytical
I'm nowhere a hardcore audiophile, just random dude who enjoy music, i just review this because i think it deserve more attention!
Noticed: my rating is 10 points system, 4 is avarage, 8 is close to TOTL, 10 is exceeding my expectation (usually with bias)
graph_2 (1).png

When i first listen to it, I immediately like it, it remind me when i first listen to Blessing 2, that crystallize, that treble, that spicy Lower treble
-Bass (5/10): Good tune, Punchy, somewhat hard hitting but not to the point of being bass head. Sound somewhat like vented BA bass (???) but not as detail
-Mid (5,5/10): Lack some body in Lower mid, but sound analytical and "rightfully" tuned so
-Vocals (7,5/10): Just a little more in Female vocals, agh. Male vocals only sounds "okay"
-Treble (6/10): Slightly laidback in top end, just about right amount of Lower treble (that i can tolerate). Still sound analytical tho
-Detail (6,5/10): Well yes almost to Timeless level of detail lol. Detail (Macro) 6,5/10, Resolution/Resolving Power (micro) 6,5/10
-Soundstage (5/10): Somewhat resemble of Closed back headphones when insert deep enough
-Imaging (6/10): Pinpoint but not X-ray Imaging, just like Hexa!
-Staging: Spread out 3 axis at the same time, all with the same length (Cube room sounstage)
-Bias - not count point (7/10): Bass boosted DF Neutral
Overall: 6/10 (B+ tier)
A true "mini Blessing 2" in my opinion, crazy value for someone looking for a analytical and studio like tuning
Comparision:
Hexa: While both having the same type of tuning, they're vastly different, Hexa is alternative to B2, while Ola bass is mini B2
- Bass is better on Hexa, giving more info and warm, tuning is better on Ola bass, overall i like Hexa bass much more
- Mid: Both have similar tuning, similar separation, ultimately i think Hexa is hair better than Ola bass because of that boosted Lower mid, giving more body
- Vocal: Ola Bass is a clear winner on this, while having more volume on lower mid, Hexa sound more scratchy (swallow fit) or too much warm (deep fit) make it kinda unnatural
-Treble: noticeable more treble on Ola Bass, it also sound more natural and well rendering on Ola Bass. I personally would choose Ola Bass as a winner because of unnatural percussion rendering in Hexa treble
-Tech: Ola Bass win in all department regarding tech, Macro is same in both set, Micro much better than Ola Bass, Soundstage is better on Ola bass (wider, open, deeper), Imaging is more or less the same, lower mid have better projectile on Ola bass.
Conclusion: bought this because of esthetic, somehow it become my most reached iem. I can't recommend this enough if you want to try B2 type of tuning!

Hey you write a review! Great job. The graph does remind me of B2. Surprised that the stage is no longer the highlight with these IEM. The original OLA did a surprisingly good job.

@o0genesis0o haha thank you so much. I believe both B2 and this have fantastic staging, but in soundstage and headroom sound a little congested in vertical axis and depth. But overall, very open!

I’ve come to believe that you cannot achieve great soundstage depth without a warm / recessed midrange. B3 also has outstanding stage extension and width, but not depth.
