@@imwhatsnew would you say the vocals come across more natural on the zeros or the waners? Thanks. I had the Zero originals in the past and really did like the vocals so just wondering if the waners are right for me. My biggest issue with some of these IEMs is vocals coming of as too "bright" sometimes and I didn't have that at all with the Salnotes really.

Solid review, as always. I realise that I kinda keep switching between wanting a bass heavy unit at times and wanting a a neutral one at times. Seems like this plus an EQ fits the bill just as well. :) Another review that nails exactly what it should. :)

I’ve spent the past 6 hours comparing the wan’er to the zero 2 and I have to say i prefer the zero 2. I’m not a bass head but the wan’er just lacked on the bass department for me. I also found the wan’er very fatiguing and they actually hurt me ears on certain tracks with how pronounced the treble is. I will say the wan’er are slightly more clear in the treble range with better distinction of instruments. However, my biggest issue with the wan’er is quality control. Although they are beautiful and have a nicer cable. The 3 pairs I ordered all had issues. Two had damaged connections and the third had delaminating of the resin. Not a good sign and longevity worries me.

Great review! Even though I adored the original Zero, I'll probably be skipping these. I usually keep two mains - a detail tuned set for gaming, and a basshead set for music. Zeros were my absolute favorite gaming set for over a year until I got the Truthear Hexas. Hearing that they tuned this sequel set with more bass... well, it sort of defeats the point of this IEM for me. Bass is typically bad for competitive gaming, I've found, and I've already got sets that can do bass much better for music.

When i try to use apple type-c dongle (using it with typye-c to usb converter to plug in pc) for better output it does delivers it, gives a very well boost to to the sound but it turns on that bullet sound issue. now when i go to settings to turn on the loudness equalization there is no tab bar on the menu. so now now i cant use my dongle :( Have you faced any similar issue with your DACs ?
