ER2XR Extended Response Earphone, Multicolored

Triple flange let's gooo

The headphones are just amazing. They work very good with many of my genres, in particular electronic music (psytrance) and pop. Extremely well defined sound, and although a bit intimate stage the definition and separation is just another level, especially for a single dynamic driver. The big breaking point is the fit, but i got used to it fairly quickly and the obvious advantage is superior noice cancellation that you wouldnt get without this type of fit. It does make the stage a bit intimate, but for electronic music this isnt something i care that much about anyways. It turns it as an advantage in that genre, atleast to my preference. Getting a good seal and deep fit is absolutely crucial for these iems to come alive and show what they are capable of and it may require some perseverance to get used to them. But if you manage, they are very hard to stop listen to. They are almost addicting. What isnt that good is basically all the rest. Some of the ear tips was literally broken(had holes and leaked sound/didnt isolate external sound) right out of the box. Even if the earphones are fairly priced, things like this shouldnt happen at this price point. Now i have to spend extra to be able to explore other potentially more optimal tip fits. The cable is also pretty lacking in many areas, and the clip is absolutely essential to avoid the pretty apparent microphonics the cable brings. It also feels cheap and it seems like the plug core is of some steel/iron alloy, and not copper(or atleast brass) since its magnetic. Not really ideal, but thanks to the stellar earphone itself it doesnt have that much of an impact on the general performance, although no fair comparison with an adequate cable has been done so far. If you dare to take a gamble on the fit, these are the absolutely best iems you will find in the ~100$ category. I have the hexas and olina se which are also heavy hitters in this category, and the er2xr beats those two fairly easy to me in most categories (excluding staging, but not to say er2xr staging is "bad". Its just intimate and special). I can however see how rock genres/electric guitar songs sound better on the hexas but for me that is not something of weight since i rarely listen to that type of music.

Damn, I love these IEMs. They isolate amazingly well; airplane noise, screaming children, and other distractions disappear, even if you aren't playing anything through them. As for sound quality, they are fantastic; flat, but punchy. They are dynamic drivers, not balanced armatures like the ER3 and ER4, but they still have great technicality. I imagine comfort might be hit-or-miss for people though, since they have a deep fit which some people's ears might not appreciate. Also the included eartips are horrible, I've heard some people prefer them, I am not one of those people. Get the Comply P-series eartips; they might color the sound, but they are so much more comfortable; I often forget I'm wearing them. Cable noise can be an issue if you wear them down, since they conduct vibrations from your clothes, beard, etc straight into your ears, so I normally wear them up, hooking the wires over my ears, which kills any vibrations.

Se inserite correttamente isolano ottimamente senza dover ricorrere a bluetooth e altre tecnologie moderne. Ovviamente il suono risulta un po' "compresso" ma assolutamente di buona qualità. Lunga vita ai cavi!

Undoubtly, the sounding of this IEM is very very good, natural & soft. But, it is too costly(Rs. 14500/- around). Presently, I am using CCA-10 IEM which cost about Rs. 3000/- only. & their sounding is also too much excellent. After using ER2XR & CCA-10 IEM, I am sure that there a very very minimal difference of sounding in between them. Both are excellent. But, ER2XR sounds little bit more natural & soft. For this reason, it is wasting Rs 10000/- valuable money on this IEM & it is definitely not a good choice. Remember, ER2XR is USA made so it is costlier.
