Driver count alone means very little. The TRN ST7 is $30 and has more drivers than this, but that's a significantly less capable IEM. I haven't heard the Orchestra Lite, but it looks like it's tuned well. If that's what you're happy with that's fine. But other reviewers have put this IEM in the same basket with TOTL stuff as far as detail retrieval is concerned. $400 is a lot if you're used to spending half that or even less on IEMs, but you're not the target audience of this review if that's the case, and there's nothing wrong with that. I'll have reviews/impressions of more affordable IEMs in the near future :) Edit: I should mention, if you want to try out an IEM that follows the same target as this one without breaking the bank (albeit with less technical competency), the EPZ Q1 Pro is a lovely little IEM that is tuned to a similar target. It's about $30ish usually. Here: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlE2yw7 Edit 2: Another IEM that comes to mind that could almost sorta be a "budget 530" is the KZ AS10 Pro. It has more energy in the bass and the upper mids with a bit more of a scoop in the lower mids, but it is vaguely similar to the 530 and actually resolves quite well for what it costs. It's also 5 BA, similar to the 530. Although it's likely using custom KZ Bellsings as opposed to the Sonions in the 530. Also be warned it's a big IEM, so might not fit everyone.

@@miltonwilliams2399 I totally agree that at $55.00 the competition is much tougher. I purchased mine at AliExpress for $29.00 dollars and at roughly 30 bucks it’s fantastic deal.
Great presentation, thank you
Great 👍 Video, Forgot to count how many times you said the word 'Target' 🎯
I think it was 4 or 5 hahaha
Dude its 415.00 😢 thats double the price of the kiwi Orchestra lite which is 8 balance armatures

I own the EPZ Q1 Pro and LOVE it! Especially at the $30.00 dollar mark. The Ziigaat Nuo is great as well for around $25.00 dollars!
@j.w.s.743 I looked in amazon it's around 55. Now the epz q1 is it worth the price

@@miltonwilliams2399 The original Q1 is very dark and muddy. The one to get is the Q1 Pro.
