In owners' own words

They tire my ears out after about 5 seconds.

I also dislike the bright sound that I get from my simgot EW200

The APP2 are better than all of them. They should be, they're 10x the price.

I also tested the Simgot EW200 which supposedly has high sensitivity and the hissing is noticeably louder and annoying with them.

My only issue with the ew200 was the treble it felt sharp and everything felt airy???

Simgot ew200. Way too bright for me. Have me a headache within 30 minutes. Never been so happy to give away a set.

EW300 also has a metallic timbre on the high end. It's less sibilant and fatiguing than the EW200 by far

Bought them twice, returned them twice... Just couldn't bear the hissing using them on my Roland Bridge Cast.

so its a direct upgrade from the EW200 if you like something V-shaped and treble wasnt a problem witht the EW200

I could withstand about 30 minutes when using EW200, which is the best one for boosting your headache...

like the Simgot EW200 is really small but it's heavy compared to plastic or resin iems and so comfort suffers when using for a while.

Ew200 was too shouty for games like genshin or star rail (have a lot of high pitched effects), artti r1 is bassy but not overbloated.

kleans, nice widely appealing tuning that works very well for your genres and fit well ew200 has upper frequencies that some people find fatiguing to listen to reds have gigantic nozzles that some people find very uncomfortable and those are the og zero blues

Seems like most people recommend the ew200 for all around solid iems. I know the Singolos are quite split on opinions, but the are on sale for half off and not sure how they comapred to the other two at the price point.

Regarding driver quality, I immediately noticed the impressive depth of the low end for its price, comparable to the TRN Conch and Simgot EW200, though those have slightly faster drivers. The control and tightness are good, especially for EDM tracks, with no distortion or bloatness.

Thank you! Currently only interested in the matte black version as I have the ew200 & trying to differentiate between them

EW200 is a brighter leaning, balanced iem. The EW300 is a better option is on sale though (shouldn’t be much more than the others listed) if you want a brighter albeit balanced sound, though the extra tuning nozzles allow for variations.

Interesting. I had foam tips on my EW200 before until I swapped them out for the W1. I wonder how the Render tips would address what I'm hearing with them. If I wear a large in most other tips, it's safe to say to go with a large with those as well?

Hello, I've been planning to buy the Artti T10. Have you compared the Artti T10 with the Sgor Luna? Do you think it's worth considering the Sgor Luna, or should I go for the Simgot EW200 instead? My budget is under $50
