The upper waves of the Quietsea sound like they might be too turbulent for me but I'm glad it's a set you enjoy. 🌊 Thank you for another great review! 👍
@@starrims oh she’s a beauty. And guess what? The Dunu Titan S2 has one really similar. Corded nylon, but a much smoother weave. Feels really good. Weird that I got two in a row and they’re both winners! ☮️✔️
The only Rose Technics IEM I've heard is the Star City 5 Pro, which I own. For the price, they aren't that bad. Unique tuning for a 1 + 2. They lack a little in the sub-bass and the air region of the treble. But for $72, I think they're pretty decent.
I have heard good things about the Star City 5 too. I think the QuietSea is just a cut above a lot of the iems in the $50 range for its technical performance. and yes, you are going to sacrifice some of the smoothness with those characteristics. For the price that is to be expected. What I did not expect was the stage and details. They are very impressive. Sub bass is still lacking, however. pretty hard to get everything right at this price. But I do think it is a great alternative to something like the Delci or the EW300 because of the energy that it exhibits. And it is way better at presentation than either the TD20 or the Medusa. by far.
It's weird, Waner kills me but this reminds me of TRN CS2 which is way more energetic in mids than Waner, yet they way it sounds is beautiful. I definitely think the dips do exactly what you said and the bass performance also helps. I've mentioned CS2 a few times, it's a sleeper ultra budget set with more subbass extension than Quiet Sea. Got mine a couple of years ago for $4.50. The immersion like you said, is amazing. There are certain songs that the feeling of 3d and reverb put me in a bouncy dreamy state 🥰 it does get fatigueing for longer listening at loud volumes but totally worth it!
Btw... There is a CS4 now which has been toned down slightly. Have not heard them. I upgraded my set recently with Tanya filters, so I'm good 😎 tightens up the bass even more and tames down the fatigue.
I made the mistake of putting on a 350 filter on the T10 before bed. 430 am and sleep may never happen. Holy crap. Fell in love all over again. I think it probably sounds a lot like S12 2024. It's ridiculous how good they are!!
@@wana.me003 I usually remove the existing if they have them and start fresh. These however do not have filters so I just threw them on top of the metal mesh.
I bet you are right. I like buying and trying "older" iems too. I think it might be time to contact another company or two for review sets. Ikko will be one of them.
I agree with you on s12 24, they hit the jackpot with this version, got dang! One of my best sets period, it's almost perfectly transparent to the music/mix.
Thank you for the review! I had these in my cart for a long while. I might pull the trigger after you compare it with the S2. Interactions with your son makes the video wholesome for me!
@@wana.me003 he’s the best. The best thing I have ever done and the best parts of me. And his mom too. Kid is a ride or die. He has your back no matter what.
@@wana.me003 I actually have been comping the Anunachi with the Titan S2 a bit because of the Single DD config. The S2 has some strengths against it, but overall I think the Anunachi provides much better resolution than the Dunu. But the K5 is a resolution beast, so I think the BAs really make that happen. That and the fact that the K5 stays a little more natural sounding than most "reasonable" BA hybrids. I love the K5. I think it is one of the best hybrids out there for under $150. If I had to pick based purely on performance, then I am going with the K5, despite the Anunachi being very enchanting in its overall presentation.
I have looked at this set for awhile but wasn't sure about it. It sounds like a unique tuning. I just hope it's not piercing in the upper mids/treble. I love the upper mids and treble on the EPZ Q1 Pro so are they comparable in that regard? Great review!
The QuietSea definitely hits harder in the upper mids and treble than the Q1 Pro. You gotta be ready for it. It is not going to please everyone. But it is freaking exciting and really immersive and detailed. I will sacrifice a little smoothness and polish for the energy and stage, but that is me. It is a full change up from your average daily driver.
great review man. glad to see you cranking em out again! think I'll be passing on this one. doing my damnedest to hold out for 11/11/black Friday. may still grab more tips in the meantime. eager to try some divinus tips along with some others.
The name appeals to me. I also sail..I like a quiet sea!
Awesome review! I want to get this set... so many sets and even more wants 😂

@@BassDad8 Yes, that one too! S2 in facct comes with really good accessories, totally worth buying IEM.

@@someoneusa someone else is not sleeping I see. lol.
@@BassDad8 I blame Mr Artti!!
@@someoneusadid you just add the filters on top of the existing ones or did you remove them first?
@@wana.me003 I usually remove the existing if they have them and start fresh. These however do not have filters so I just threw them on top of the metal mesh.
@@someoneusa thank you! I am getting those filters ASAP!
Sir, thank you for another wonderful earphone review! 👌

I'm pretty sure RT uses ex sony tuners for their sets. At least star city did.
Confirmed. Nice to have a little Japanese touch on Chi-Fi sets. They did very well with this one.
You'd probably prefer the og ikko oh10 over the s, it has more sparkle.
I bet you are right. I like buying and trying "older" iems too. I think it might be time to contact another company or two for review sets. Ikko will be one of them.
@@BassDad8 +1 on the OG OH10. You'd love them!
That was a pretty serious endorsement at the end. So nice to see you back at it.
I agree with you on s12 24, they hit the jackpot with this version, got dang! One of my best sets period, it's almost perfectly transparent to the music/mix.
my thoughts exactly. transparency and beautiful polish without sacrificing either resolution or detail. It is a special set.
Thank you for the review! I had these in my cart for a long while. I might pull the trigger after you compare it with the S2.
Interactions with your son makes the video wholesome for me!

LITERALLY 😁😁
@@BassDad8 So happy to hear that! Proud father!
If you don't mind indulging me, how would you compare this with the EPZ K5 and the Hakugei?
@@wana.me003 I actually have been comping the Anunachi with the Titan S2 a bit because of the Single DD config. The S2 has some strengths against it, but overall I think the Anunachi provides much better resolution than the Dunu. But the K5 is a resolution beast, so I think the BAs really make that happen.

It's LITERALLY broken. 😂😂 Too cute.
