ARTTI R1 REVIEW!!! Triple Dynamic Driver! "If only you knew the POWER of the Dark Side..." 

Right back at ya!!!

I want a flagship from them. Right now! lol

Thank you! That was very kind of you to say!

@@BassDad8 Truth. Plus you're a Cornell fan. I live near Syracuse. My daughter is a Cornell grad!

@@kellycny65 let’s Go RED!!!

Awesome!!!

Awesome! Thank you!! And I am definitely going to check out Richter’s Four Seasons! Appreciate you clueing me in on that!

Thank you!

Oh wow! That is really strange. Mine are so smooth up to and beyond 2.5K that what you're experiencing is astonishing! Are you able to exchange them? If so, I would do that ASAP. It really sounds like there is something wrong internally on your set. I did notice that they are pretty tip sensitive as well. narrow bore tips really congest the upper mids and treble and shrink the soundstage as well. But it didn't make mine hot, just less coherent/cohesive. I'd try the widest bore tips you've got and see if that helps, but my guess is that you got a lemon. I hope you can send them back!

@@BassDad8 Thanks for your effort to help me ,I already have the widest bore ear tips on them ,they are the only IEM's I hate and I guess I was too lazy to send them back to China :)

They’re on Amazon, that’s where I got mine. I have NO issues with the ones I bought. I’ve heard that even Simgot can have QC issues on their lower end IEMs. I put the Artti Spark cable on mine and Azla sednafit standard eartips on them.

@@sagaman4785 hell yeah! I just took mine out. I’ve got Dunu SS tips. L on right XL on left. They run small. I love the wide open tips on these!

@@k77bull l’d send an email to whoever you bought them from and ask for a refund or replacement!

Yup. Know that. I’d put the T10 right up against the S15 any day of the week. That said, sub brands can have flagship sets too. And they should look into it. But thank you for pointing that out. So helpful

Besides the fact that the $2,300 Cadenza 12 would be considered Letshuoer’s “Flagship” I would think? I don’t know. 🤷 Maybe we should look that up?

@BassDad8 I've read that the T10 has the same driver as the S12s. Yes, sure, sub brands can have flagships. If they make one, hopefully, they will price it somewhat aggressively. For example LETSHUOER Cadenza 12 at that price point doesn't stand a chance against the competition. Sure, it has many BAs (like 11), but that doesn't necessarily make a good sound. It introduces a lot of harmonics into equation without providing enough benefits.

@@TechTroppy Actually the drivers of the S12 and T10 are not the same. The S12’s driver is a 14.8mm and the T10 has the “new gen” 14.2mm . It is the same driver as the NiceHCK F1 Pro and that driver is the updated version of the OG 7Hz Timeless 14.2mm planar. So the brand is Letshuoer, but the Ancestry is 7Hz. This isn’t confusing at all, is it? And you’re right about the Cadenza 12 having stiff competition. They’re in the Summit-Fi tier with that one and the competition is absolutely Fierce. It would be hard to justify buying it over comparably price sets. Or even sets for a bit less. Still love what they’ve been up to, especially in their sub brand Artti. And the Letshuoer S08 is due to drop soon. Can’t wait for that one!

It’s a wickedly slippery slope 😉

So i'd like to recommend the R1, but a subscriber said theirs was peaky in the treble. my set is definitely not. But that gives me pause. If there are QC issues... I am not sure there are, but if you want to be safe and still want a really good set, get the Fudu.

@@BassDad8 Thanks for replying. With all these IEM's coming out and I'm on a limited budget, guys like you that do honest reviews helps out a lot. Thank you!

I’d say the R1 is better for vocals, Fudu is more laid back. Fudu has balanced armatures and R1 has dd for mids and highs.

I would say congratulations!!! Think I paid $53 for mine. Anyway, that’s an insane value.

Agreed. 100%

Eartips wide bore and cable change helps. Don’t use pure copper cable on them, makes them sound dark.

@@sagaman4785 again agreed 100% I have the Dunu “Buckets” on mine and it cleans them up nicely. These aren’t trying to be an EA500. Definitely a different beast.

@@sagaman4785 oh and really good call on the copper cable. I actually put one on my Ulims and it took just a bit of the edge off. Very good insight on that!

Oh yes. Absolutely. The R1 is a completely different experience from the T10. It is excellent in its own right. If I could only own 2 sets and they had to be from the same company, these two would be high up my list.

@@BassDad8 good to know, as soon as possible i'll buy it, thanks for your answer and 4 this review

Did u buy it?

Which is more enjoyable

@@cryptic7800 well, it depends on your vibe, but I like both a lot, t10 is more detailed and r1 more warmer, r1 sub bass is insane, but t10 bass overall is strong, if you can buy just one, i'll sugest r1

i am torn. I kinda feel like I want to try the Simgot EW200 next in that price range... But the R2 is tempting...

@@BassDad8 Depends on your library. Lower end stuff like Rock, hip hop, probably country and so on the R2 would be better. Kpop, Jpop and female vocals, Simgot ew200.

@@sagaman4785 appreciate that insight! I decided to jump off the edge of sanity and ordered the QKZxHBB Hades instead. I’m a basshead at heart and since it is an unapologetic basshead iem, I couldn’t resist. Both the ew200 and the R2 will remain on my radar as my library cuts across most genres (except pop country).
