If the high res version means they improved the timbre and resolution at the top end with the Trio, which is where I feel is the weakness, as it's average, then maybe it's a potential buy? But everything else must remain the same?!

Technically for the High-Resolution version they only reduced the bass; the top end remains almost untouched.

Make that the TRN Kenobi, then we'd have a real fight

I'm down with this. It needs a new color than black or white though, perhaps the color of the sands of Tatooine.

The most compact BQEYZ set yet?



These are my initial impressions of BQEYZ CLOUD. BQEYZ is quite well-known for their innovative approach to the point that they are quite experimental in that regard and this new model is one of them. This one has a hybrid driver system consisting of dynamic driver and flexible auxiliary diaphragm unit which is BQEYZ's take on passive radiator and these components were housed in a metal alloy shell casing. The size of the shells is probably the most compact one among the BQEYZ sets that I've tested so far and this one will have no issues to folks with smaller lugholes.

As for tonality, this set is somehow divagating towards neutralish-bright tuning on how this tuning is more focused on the upper-mids up to the entirety of the treble region. Bright, sparkly and airy, as I describe it clearly as it will better on females vocals, strings, woodwinds and some chordophone percussives. But in my opinion, treble-sensitive folk might stay cautious on these particular types of tuning to their sensitivity of their hearing level limits.

For technical capabilities, BQEYZ products are known to have these strongest assets and the good thing is that the CLOUD has its DNA in these aspects. Excellent stereo imaging with layering and separation, a quite spacious sound field and pretty highly resolving in terms of micro-dynamics.

Check out my full review later.

Is that the same OEM shell as the tripowin Olina?

It just seems like high-Resolution version has less bass. XD They gotta slow down....

Here's a review for the TIN HIFI P1 Max II: https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/tinhifi-p1-max-ii.27174/reviews#review-33725

Pros:
Solid built
Ergonomic and light
Textured and clean bass
Good technicalities

Cons:
No case or even a pouch for a $100ish USD set!
Not the easiest IEM to drive, due to lowish sensitivity
Below average isolation
Planar timbre
Potentially sibilant and fatiguing in the upper frequencies - not for treble-sensitive peeps

8 kHz is a coupler artefact peak.

Picked up the 2022 Saber, curiosity got the best of me. I wanted the best version of the R3. Lol

 

[Jmop]

Sorry R3 II, but your red isn’t as sexy.

 

[FreeWheelinAudioLuv2]

Some one has been reading too many @Redcarmoose review?

It seems that the hi-res vader is the same but less bass response

LOL?

 

[Jmop]

As a Star Wars fan I approve of the name Vader, but maybe I’m not a true fan cuz I like the prequels more.

 

[Jmop]

Tanchjim One, in.

I honesty can’t stand it when I can’t tell the distinct difference between digital filters, it upsets the perfectionist in me.

There are apparently people in the world who swear they can "listen" to music by simply looking at record grooves.

Not sure how far people could "listen" by looking or touching the record grooves
but funfact sensory synthesia is a thing.
some people could "see/visualize" food taste or maybe hear by sense of touch.

You know what is better than a weekly sidegrade Pokemon release?

A Star Wars Pokemon.

Presenting the KZ Vader.
