The one everyone hates for no reason

I got this IEM despite everyone online telling me it was bad, or V-shaped, or even that it's at the same audio quality of some 20$ IEMs.

Was very surprised (not really) to see for myself and realize this is an amazing IEM.

It comes with a premium opening experience, a leather carrying case, foam ear tips and a 3.5mm / 4.4mm interchangeable cable end.

The audio quality is what you expect from the price, with very nice clean treble but also amazing bass that I genuinely didn't expect.

I'd say this is a very safe option if this becomes your first IEM over 100$ because imo it both works with every song I've tried and (at least for me) because it's also a very beautiful IEM that you'll love just to look at, the cable especially is just a beauty.

Three sets, one clear winner

Been rotating the EPZ Q1 Pro, K5 and the Crinear Daybreak, all solid, but the Daybreak is on another level. The tuning is just right, nothing sticks out, vocals sound natural, bass hits without bleeding into everything. Comfy enough that I forget it's in my ears for hours. Honestly punches way above its price. The Q1 Pro is a great cheap daily and the K5 is the fun bassy one, but the Daybreak is the set I keep reaching for. Easy recommendation.

Very good, but it can get fatiguing

These IEMs have good comfort, a very satisfying neutral tuning and well executed bass. They also come with very good and highly usable set of accessories.

There are only three minor drawbacks: length mode issues (though the included short-wide tips fix this), a noticeable boost in the air region and sharpness on sibilant syllables. They do not increase the sharpness, but they make no effort to hide it either.

Needs work

Very uncomfortable on the ear for prolonged use.

Hi there,

We’re sorry to hear these earbuds feel uncomfortable during long use.

It may be that the ear tips are not the right size.We suggest you try ear tips of different sizes and materials to see if it improves comfort.

Wearing them for a long time can cause pressure on your ears, so we also recommend taking short breaks to reduce ear pressure.

We hope these help improve your experience!

We apologize again.

Helped me reach a new plateau of knowledge

This helped me find out and truly understand that the FR graph is pretty much the only thing you should care about. Having this and a Simgot EM10 tuned to the same FR target and using the same eartips, I legit can't tell a difference between them. It's not really worth spending more than what this one costs on IEMs. Especially since these are almost tuned to the JM-1 target with -1.2dB/Octave tilt and +4dB Bass boost, which I've found to be the most neutral, realistic, musical, lively, and analytical curve yet, as it basically is the kind of curve you want in-room with great speakers. Highly recommend using a DAC+Amp like Topping DX5 II with these to achieve that exact tuning through PEQ, and to use the Eletech Baroque eartips for that finishing touch on the sound to make it all magical!
