“That's underwhelming considering the hype.”— @diazzsama on YouTube
“I hate the screw. Why are more people not talking about the screw.”— @phixi0n on YouTube

“To Neutral, very meh.”— @telephonic on YouTube
“Truthear hexa, it's just too congested, spiky treble and depthless separation”— PLY_j1e on Reddit
“Truthear hexa. Looks cheap, feels cheap, sounds cheap.”— _OVERHATE_ on Reddit
“Just returned mine. Absolute no mid bass. No bass at all really.”— @blinksalot92 on YouTube
“Compared directly with my TRN V90s, the trns won... and they're cheaper”— @jorisbonson386 on YouTube

“Truthear Hexa- I understand why people like them, but everything about them is boring, even the look.”— mck_motion on Reddit
“I don't recommend truthear hexa. From personal experience it's too cold and clear for me. I personally like more warm and more bass like the truthear zero reds.”— Topiainen_ on Reddit
Not complaints — practical notes from owners that didn't affect the score.
“I’ve only listened to them a little bit so far, but don’t think they’re going to be a favorite for me unless I really change my thinking after listening to them more.”— BellGeek on Reddit
“With the Hexa I use the 10 ohm resistor sold with the Crinnacle Red. I don't measure it, but it just seems to flesh out the bottom octave.”— Capital-Werewolf-167 on Reddit
“I have the Hexa and I’m debating whether the upgrade to Pilgrims will be worth the money.”— GrouchyMud3548 on Reddit
“And yes, Hexa is less bulky. Hexa has a flat outer face and rounded off corners in the ear facing side”— IAtaman on Audio Science Review
“You can use an impedance adapter for a little bass boost. Does a lot of good things for the Hexa imo.”— Pschulniknof on Reddit
“Hexas just have relatively quiet bass which may or may not be preferable for certain genres.”— failedluddite on Reddit
“The planar and PZT are different driver types from the BA used in Hexa for the highs, so their sound profile differs by a lot”— ChangoFrett on Reddit
“I just got mine too, coming from Moondrop Arias that had the dreaded moisture issues. They're taking me some getting used to as well, so I dialed in a bass shelf on the EQ”— teringsaus on Reddit
