7Hz x HBB Elua Review- Thrifty Tunes Ep.20

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

As somebody pointed out, the listed sensitivity is wrong. It’s 107 dB/V. Not 107 dB/mW. Equivalent spec is 89.5 dB/mW. This still doesn’t change the fact I could power these with my old Sony Xperia or MiniDisc player. Meaning you should still be fine.

[@afrog2666]

Decibels per VOLT? That`s... That`s kinda weird..

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@ agreed. I prefer dB/mW. It makes the math easier.

[@MariaAudioChick]

Change the filter on the Rosefinch and it sounds amazing. Opens up the mids and soundstage, brings out the details. It's still my bass reference. It's bass quality is at least as good as Adonis New, possibly better. I'm returning the Adonis, it's gorgeous, the value just isn't there. Rosefinch is that good!

[@Hijynx87]

what grade filter? also what size? I think im going to pull the trigger

[@wrbrown571]

Great review. I might be tempted to check it out with that treble extension. It looks really good compared to the Legato, with the exception of the 11-13K range and at about 25% of the Legato's price. Also, it would have been nice if the Kbear KS1 could have been in the mix. It usually sells for about half the price, it's bassy and shares a more than a little bit of the Elua's treble extension.

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@wrbrown571 I’ll see if I can get the KS1 in.

[@jamsblast]

I dig this iem, have it for a few weeks and be in rotation aswell, yeah, is a different tuning but is a nice approach, scales well with more powerful sources, but doesn't need too much as Omar pointed, cable rolling is a must, and fortunately the orange eartips fits my ears so well.

[@DEZ7ROYER]

Great as usual! 💯

[@CristopherCutas]

AOSHIDA E20 mention!

[@PixieHikoRaen]

Thanks for another great review! 😊 feels like you could create a line up of varying levels of bass boost with some treble- which feels like a much more pricey way to accomplish this instead of just using EQ 😂

[@MariaAudioChick]

I like the cars that go boom 😁🤪 a bass off sounds fun!

[@faisalfirdausiinn4708]

Since you mentioned Aoshida E20 (by Letshuoer), when i play it loud, high frequency notes will cause the driver to produce crackling sound. Did you ever get any crackling sound when listening to E20?

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

I have not, but I do my listening at a relatively low volume. I’ll see if I can get the driver to click or crackle for my review. Thanks for letting me know.

[@0srl09]

Any recommendations for a mostly r & b, pop, hip hop iem for under $100 open to anything. Just can’t fit any nozzle over 6.5mm

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@0srl09 I would try to pick up a Tangzu Fudu or a Simgot EW300 with the gold nozzles. Bassy, warm, great for those genres.

[@_-Z-]

I'm probably going to give this one a pass since I have all of the other ones in the comparison section. That said, I might be tempted enough to buy it (for a slightly different flavor 🙂) if I see it for $15 or less at some point down the line. Thank you for another great review! 👍

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@_-Z- on sale this would be an interesting pickup. Wonder how low it will get next summer sale.

[@kingie66]

Frequency measurements are awesome(for bassheads who still need fidelity in rest of spectrum), if u tell me these are 150usd, i would believe you, Hades belongs to dumpster in comparison. Im surprised this is actual hbb collab, did he change taste from V-shape to hifi or what? But the cable looks like one dollar cost and overal estetics not pleasing - using similar to Hades would be win. I hope they release mk.2 with these minor problems fixed.

[@abdullah_12_12]

I raised this iems aful explorer I did not like the sound I watch a movie the sounds of glass and breaking and sawing are very loud and not balanced with the speech reducing the volume is boring what is the best alternative

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@abdullah_12_12 hmm. That sounds a little odd. Some software and movies do surround sound odd and prioritize sound effects over speech. How does it sound with music?

[@abdullah_12_12]

@@AudioAmigoReviews With iems aful explorer the sound is musical at a level below average sharp letter sin knife annoying I want it to be warm and thick very balanced without affecting some music from male or female

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@abdullah_12_12 ok. So you’re experiencing sharpness like sibilance on the Aful Explorer. Hmm… warmer than the Aful Explorer. Try the TRI Draco, the Letshuoer S08, but those are the only ones I have that are more subdued than the Explorer in the treble.

[@abdullah_12_12]

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@ yes. A dongle should be fine.

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@TWT.0 I had no issues driving these with my old Sony Xperia X Compact.

[@JohnClarkW]

I am guessing I will snag a pair of these at the Christmas Sale.

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@JohnClarkW you’ll have to tell me how they compare to that Hype 10 you just won from HBB! Congratulations dude!

[@JohnClarkW]

​@@AudioAmigoReviews thanks, and yes Merry Christmas to me. It was even a set that I was really interested, just out of my price range, so that worked out really well. I won a couple of budget sets from AWSMDanny a couple months ago too, so this fall has been lucky on the IEM front.

[@alexeiboukirev8357]

Why do I keep seeing EULA on the face plate? And does one have to agree to it to use these earphones? 🤔

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

Hahaha. Yeah, you have to accept it before you get any sound.

[@absurddude1]

Please review roseselsa aurora ultra

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@absurddude1 I’ll try and get one in. :)

[@DeathKnight19709]

The specs say they are 107 dB/V, not 107db/mw.

[@AudioAmigoReviews]

@@DeathKnight19709 you are right! I made a mistake in the graphics. The sensitivity is in dB/V on their site. Equivalent in dB/mW would be 89.5 I’ll make a pinned comment.

[@bernardogaytan5165]

You forgot something about the Castor, you can add a bit of treble by turning up the last switch, UUDU. I don't know how much can compare to the treble of the Elua.

[@absurddude1]

First hehehe

When everything is BassHead, nothing is Basshead 😅

We gonna take a shot everytime you say Basshead, bout to get tipsy. Fun drinking game for tonight

[@Musicophile-p5l]

Excellent review, I think it serves a niche purpose for a budget basshead IEM but in that case I'd still get the wyvern Abyss and eq the bass region haha.
