Ive tried to Compare KATO and Aria 2s on audiophile gathering last month. And for me they sound extremely similar on tuning BUT there is something with KATO that it sounds more expensive and I feel it sounds like that only because its has a better DD. Overall Id say KATO still better. One of the people on that event even say "ARIA 2s are low res KATO". I definitely agree.
I have both KATO and Aria 2, and I struggle to tell them apart. If I don't do an A-B comparison, I won't be able to notice any difference. Listening on RME ADI-2-DAC FS
Wow the Aria 2’s are looking like a very formidable gaming IEM for open world game titles (which I 🥰). Great to see the sound quality improvement and getting a much higher tier of audio for such a great price. Definitely my next buy for IEM 💪🤩👍. Loving the content and great gaming audio aspect review for IEMs are you’re my go to for IEM purchases for my gaming needs!😇👍. Respect ✊ my good sir and keep this amazing content coming!🥰 Merry Christmas and Seasons Greetings to you 🎄🎁🎅🤶🧑🎄🎄🎄
man i got into chifi iem's a while back and im stuck on the kz-zs10pro X's still. didnt care for the aria's but maybe if i could try the aria 2's i would like them cuz i like a larger sound stage
ive been in a iem rabbit hole the past week trying to figure out what iems to pick up, im using truthear x crinacle zero OG. I am mostly playing tarkov nowadays and some mmorpgs and single player games, sometimes i play comp shooters like siege and cs. so my question is what would be a good choice to pick up as upgrade from the zeros, my budget is 100-300 euros. i guess im trying to find something that has better listening experience with music but wouldnt want to downgrade from hearing those tasty foot steps in tarkov. supermix 4, moondrop aria 2, meze alba, sennheiser ie200, moondrop kato and truthear nova has been the ones ive been looking into. thank you for your videos and keep up the great work!
actually this is Aria 3 cause there was another Aria before that Snow Edition or something but it had different tuning then the OG Black Aria the same as so called Aria 2 and Both Aria Snow and Aria 2 are Downgrades compared to OG Aria and for gaming or music Aria is nowhere near as good as TinHiFi T3 Plus or TRI Star River and many others in the same price range Aria god alot of Hype cause Moondrop Spend alot of Money for advertising and Good Reviews just like Thieaudio is doing for their IEMs so both Companies have Heavily Overpriced IEMs you can also get from other companies only much cheaper many times with better quality too
@@Nasty134 maybe but for TinHiFi T3 Plus doesn't need any EQ for gaming or music same for TRI Star River very underrated IEM but better then many with even higher price tag very comfortable too
@@LyuboA atm I'm using the KZ ZS10 pro x. An excellent IEM for 55€. Great Bass, not to much, but really satisfying in games like Overwatch, The Finals, CoD etc. and for movies and music. It gives a little bit more fun than the Aria Snow Drop, but I like both IEMs.
@@troved590 i havent tried the em6l personally but I have heard a lot of QC issues with it and some other simgot products. it seems to perform better in the bass and low mid region compared to the hexa but the hexa seems to have a better upper mid to treble, but I don't know personally. My money is on the hexa, its also like 30 bucks cheaper and myself and others havent had any QC issues and its such a good iem for price. Maybe you can consider the Tripowin x HBB Olin for around the same price as em6l if u wanted to spend more and get slightly better performance than hexa, it has better bass but the low-mid mid range on the hexa is better and the peak around the 2k range might be a bit much for some but depends what you listen to, female high notes can drown out other sounds but past that it is a nice sparkle and is quite a fun IEM although for a more "safer" sound the hexa is better for most compared to the Tripowin x HBB Olin
