[@liammadridista2395]

That's a nice cable, I can't believe it comes with a free iem 😂

[@naglorieche3878]

what you mean?

[@currycel470]

​@naglorieche3878 compared to cable, iems are very small. So it almost seems like you are paying for cable.

[@MAHDYzz]

I don't even care about the IEM, I just love this guy's review's, such a calm atmosphere

[@patrick600]

Dunu is one of the best when it comes to package accessories.

[@SuperReview]

Agreed, and I think this one upped the ante.

[@cxmxc]

Yes! The Dunu sa6 was packed amazingly insane quality for under $500

[@eldenr-y9c]

Also their build quality

[@Ducbloke]

Another nice review in the books. Those are Candy tips! They're a great narrow bore tip and fits really well. My go to for narrow tips.

[@SuperReview]

Yeah I'm a fan of the candy tips, nice silicone, short stems.

[@elasmojones]

the single DD market under $100 seems flooded

[@gadgetgenerationspulkit]

The Titan S2 is a complete package man. Good sound, good cable and a lot of eartips. DUNU has really nailed the pricing this time.

[@rickoneill4343]

Worth the buy just for the cable, eartips and case. I bought the Lyra cable and tips separately. I should have just bought this.

[@SuperReview]

Lyra cable is nice. One diff is the 2-pin connectors, the Lyra will fit almost all 2-pin IEMs, where this Titan S2 cable won't fit my LAN 😭

[@sukinelson2153]

Love to see another more budget review! I might have to try this one!

[@brssnkl]

If you live inside a radio tower or have a 20 meter cable or smt, balanced cables actually make a difference :D

[@hpwrotethis]

I wish I had an insane package. Wait what, we talking about iems?

[@SuperReview]

You do 🫵

[@profound369]

​@@SuperReviewi agree, i like his package too

[@Heldermaior]

Got a new pixel 8 to replace the LG V40... No headphone jack. Got a BTR3K and a pair of these while at it to complement my KZ Pros. Looking forward to get this.

[@kpkp2655]

Love this review. Subbed!

[@StartCodonUST]

Even just buying a set of Dunu S&S tips sets you back $13, so you could see it as a $67 set with three sets of eartips plus a bonus set of S&S tips, so already this seems like a better value than the OG Titan S even when that set is on sale. Any way I think about it, this is raising the standard for $80 IEMs

[@Silence-and-Violence]

Yeah, the cable and tips alone made it worth it. If it sounds about as good as the original with an interchangeable tip cable and all those tips, it's a great deal and might become my go-to gift IEM for my non-audio friends.

[@jacobbarfield7828]

Slight side-question: Do the S&S tips fit the original Titan S well? I’ve been thinking about getting the triple-size pack of S&S for my Titan S cause it seems that I need a deeper fitting tip for a good seal. And if they do fit it well, how does it change the sound? Thanks!

[@StartCodonUST]

@@jacobbarfield7828 Ooh, I don't know myself. I've demoed Titan S in the past, but not sure about the tips. I have Dunu SA6, which has a very different nozzle that doesn't have any tip retention, which both the Titan S and the Titan S2 have. The S&S tips stay on the SA6 nozzles better than my other favorite tips like Azla Crystal and Spinfit W1 (I tend to prefer tackier tips which are more prone to falling off nozzles), but that's my main reason for using them. For me, they achieve good fit stability for tips that aren't quite as tacky as others. I also put the S&S tips on my Kefine Delci for a deeper fit and more fit stability. I don't really pay attention to sound changes due to tip rolling though.

[@recode8453]

can't wait for titan s3 😊

[@MalandraPugh]

Thanks for a good insight!

[@Helmond2017]

I liked the signature Red circular thing on the previous gens. This one has is a little too protruded and shiny.

[@jonblu]

Great video as always. My curiosity makes me wanna know what material is the diaphragm made of but dunu says "Composite". I hate when they do that. Best wishes.

[@JohnClarkW]

I also like that they went a bit off Harmon for the tuning. There aren't many sets with extra mid-bass these days, and the tilt looks warmer than the Titan S. The accessories look good, and nice fit is always a good to see.

[@Vaxeri]

This has to be one of the prettiest IEM I've seen.

[@pedrocostalins8041]

Get me a black painted metal version or a rough gun metal and Dunu will have a sale!

[@AliArghavan]

How would you compare Titan S2 vs Hexa?

[@sylvestrestalin]

exactly what i was wondering.

[@edwinchan5391]

The longer I'm in this hobby, I realised the more sensitive I become to tonal imbalance 😅 LAN is polite and good, like the girl next door kind of good, LOL.

[@andrinschumacher9503]

Have you tried putting the cable on Supernova?👀 i’m interested…

[@EricJorgensen1]

Thanks

[@PEANUTGALLERY81]

About those balanced cable, I do agree they’re unnecessary for almost every IEMs. First off, both IEMs and Headphones will never make use of the electrical noise rejection feature of balanced cables because nobody uses 10m/30ft cable lengths with these. Having said that though, I personally like balanced cables for full sized headphones because they allow more power with low power usb dongles. That’s a useful side benefit. One the other hand, what would be really good for IEMs are low impedance cables. Given that some IEMs only have 8 ohms impedance, a cable with < 0.2 ohms impedance would be lovely

[@zrad09]

Kinda wish you also compared with the original Titan S. Do you think it's still worth getting the original Titan S if you consider the price drop?

[@boyseverino528]

Its worth it. It's so good

[@SuperReview]

I prefer the original Titan S, sound signature is closer to "neutral," bass is tighter (but less).

[@jacobbarfield7828]

@@SuperReviewdo you by chance have any recommendations for an IEM that is extremely close to the original Titan S’ tuning but has much better technical performance? I adore the original’s neutral with forward-vocals and lean yet good-quality bass tuning. Preferably under $200USD

[@gundamOPS]

Do you still have the tinhifi C2 to compare? They graph almost identical, so I am curious.

[@SuperReview]

I actually prefer the sound of C2, cleaner bass, and treble is less swishy for me.

[@HelloFellowMellowMarshmallow]

Does the cable fit the Hexa? I’ve seen one of your comments about it not fitting the Lan.

[@SuperReview]

Not really no, the Hexa connector is a bit recessed.

[@GadZookz]

Got to admit, those tips look particularly chewy with a variety of flavours too! Count me in. 👍🏻

[@SuperReview]

Don't give them any ideas.

[@GadZookz]

@@SuperReview Hmmm. It’s not available in Canada yet. Looks like those skimpy Alba tips will have to do for now. 🙂

[@audio_tron]

Edible eartips would make for some fun CanJam shwag.

[@GadZookz]

@@audio_tron Access to free snacks can certainly help to curb the random acts of cannibalism that distract people from the amazing audio gear. 🤔

[@blinkblik6924]

Bass looks so similar to tanchjim one 3.5mm version

[@thisissonotafakeaccount]

Between this and Meze Alba, which one sounds better? I wanna get one for monitoring my voice and acoustic guitar for live gigs. Or is there an even better one? Saw both your reviews and I'm super confused.

[@SuperReview]

For a monitor, I'd consider the Aful MagicOne.

[@noctisarcanus7894]

Thank you for not answering comments!

[@valmirseog276]

Graphically it is very similar to the Tin Hifi C2 Mech Warrior.

[@dyckstefan]

Great review but the moving backgtound during the squiglink portion gives me a bit of nausea. Love your work, just a small comment.

[@SuperReview]

Ha someone else said something similar, surprising feedback but I'll do something.

[@ushaped_cultist]

Please review the Dita Project M

[@LuciferArc1]

Already have an ea500LM so ill probably just go for the ea1000 when i get the chance

[@Pauli2006]

Why you go with ea1000 and not the Tanchjim Origin

[@LuciferArc1]

@Pauli2006 cheaper. 180 vs 250. I might consider holding off and getting the origin later instead of ea1000. Idk

[@miaobinhuang2315]

How is it compared to shuoer s12.

[@makukh]

What about reviewing Fiio FD15?

[@aceofspades6667]

Dunno about dunu

[@SuperReview]

Who do? Dunu. Do what?

[@HobbyTalk]

But does it beat Gate/Hola cable?

[@SuperReview]

For the right IEM, yeah.

[@Gundemonium]

what are those eartips on lan and arias? Also, would you say that May still holds up compared to them (want to get them somply out of comfort)

[@SuperReview]

On LAN I think those are the Audiosense A400, really nice tips. On the Aria, those are stock -- included with the Aria 2 but I haven't seen on other Moondrops.

[@Gundemonium]

@@SuperReview thanks a lot! My question regarding May was about if they are still comparable soundwise, my bad. Wil try out those tips, since i really like spinfits

[@jumponbush2833]

should I get this over truthear hexas?

[@leonardopapantoniou4227]

Does this need balanced? I have the original and in My opinion they don't

[@DaudasVlr]

Is good like the antecessor for gaming ?

[@J7T800]

Leave it to Dunu to sell an $80 cable and accessories with a free IEM.

Following after Truthear's Hola/Gato.

[@ferminperaza7216]

Dunu titán a 2 or shangling sono???

[@boyseverino528]

It's a great sounding set too totally an upgrade from the og

[@SuperReview]

Depends on what you like, personally I prefer the OG Titan S.

[@boyseverino528]

@SuperReview the og are one of my favorites too in fact I have 2 sets of them. But I'm hearing a lot more detail on the s2. Which I like. It's probably bcoz on both I use the s&s tips. So I'm hearing both differently. Imo. Thanks for the reply.

[@arpannaskar5758]

compare this with ea500lm🙂

[@JoseFerreira-zb7wh]

Would've liked it if you had compared it with the og titan s. Seems like a very appropriate comparison. I really like the og titan s. Even today. Don't like the looks of this new one.

[@boyseverino528]

It sounds totally different from the og. Imo the s2 is a lot better.

[@SuperReview]

OG Titan S is brighter, more neutral, less bass. Bass is tighter on OG IMO, and overall I prefer the sound of the original, but the new one does have wider stereo image.

[@JoseFerreira-zb7wh]

@@SuperReview seems to translate what their graphs suggest. yes i really like its treble. It's very present and sparkly but without being agressive. Bass is not as much as most of its competition, Definitely a vocal focused iem.

[@Nero-yn1mf]

Im wondering how compatible the cable from the Titan s2 is with other iems.

[@SuperReview]

I've got it on my Meteor now 🙊

[@Nero-yn1mf]

​@@SuperReviewNice!, Happy to know it works other iems 🔥

[@pratiklandge3906]

Do you personally prefer a sound signature like the truthear hexa to that of the Titan s2?

[@parthraghav4948]

Sorry to interrupt but I think anyone who is watching this channel for a while, can say that YES, Mark would pick Hexa anyday over S2 Again sorry for me answering this question.

[@pratiklandge3906]

[@SuperReview]

Hexa for me.

[@johnmcvicker6728]

Do you do any burn-in on the review IEMs - or graph and listen right out of the box? A few I have sounded smoother on the treble after a period of a few days of use. Another reviewer runs a week of burn-in before a review. I wonder if it is worth it.

[@SuperReview]

I do not believe in burn-in.

[@krzysztofobodzinski2529]

The only burn-in i believe in is the brain burn-in. At first, your brain is not accustomed to the new presentation and sensations, so new products sound a little bit off or rough but after a day or two (in my case, at least) it goes away. When you've been using only one pair of headphones for a long time, getting used to something new may take even longer.

[@johnmcvicker6728]

@@krzysztofobodzinski2529 however, the pairs I have that felt treble heavy at first, I out aside and listened to others while burning one in particular in. Then went back to it and it did sound and feel less spicy and nicer overall. Was the Simgot EW200 in particular. I have another I am burning in and want to also see the treble come down. Checking that in a couple days.

[@krzysztofobodzinski2529]

@johnmcvicker6728 Personally, I believe it's a placebo, but if it works for you, that's great. It's a hobby, and it's supposed to be fun, so to each their own :)
