15:00The reviewer finds the Audeze Euclid to be a decent but flawed closed-back planar IEM. It has good technicalities and build, but the tuning is off—too shouty and bright—and the comfort and included cable are subpar. While it outperforms cheaper planars and some competitors, it doesn't stand out as a clear recommendation at its price point.

13:53The reviewer finds the Austrian Audio Hi-X55 to be a major disappointment, describing it as possibly the worst headphone they have ever tested. They criticize its severely flawed frequency response, grainy and compressed sound, poor timbre, and uncomfortable ear pads, concluding that it is not worth buying even at its reduced price.

10:01The reviewer finds the Blessing 2 Dusk to be a near-perfect IEM, praising its excellent tuning, strong technicalities, and comfortable fit. It is essentially a retuned Blessing 2 with added bass and slightly reduced mid-forwardness, making it a top recommendation under $500 despite minor treble air limitations.

9:00The reviewer finds the Moondrop SSP to be a decent budget IEM, better than its sibling the SSR due to a boosted bass that makes the shouty mids less bothersome. However, it remains V-shaped, warm, and muddy with average resolution, and the reviewer suggests paying a bit more for a better option like the Tin T2 Plus.

8:31The reviewer finds the ATH-R70X to be a lightweight, well-built open-back headphone with a notably forward midrange and decent bass extension, but criticizes its grainy detail, thin and slightly shrill sound, and lack of punch compared to competitors like the Sennheiser HD 6XX and Hifiman Sundara. While it may suit listeners who prioritize very forward mids or extreme lightness, the reviewer would not choose it over those alternatives.

19:13The reviewer finds the ZMF Auteur Teak to be a well-built, comfortable headphone with a unique, warm, and resonant sound signature that is enjoyable, though it lacks the detail and imaging of some competitors at its price point. The stock cable is criticized, and the weight may be an issue for some, but overall the reviewer appreciates its distinctive character.

25:22The reviewer finds the HiFiMAN HE-6 to be an exceptional-sounding headphone, particularly praising its natural and precise imaging, which he describes as concert-like and unlike anything else he has heard. However, he notes that it is extremely difficult to drive, very bright with the stock velour pads, and has significant comfort and build quality issues, though he still liked it enough to purchase the review unit.
