Hi everyone, very new here just getting into the world of budget quality items, I've been dabbling in watches and flashlights and am dipping my toes into chi-fi. Any advice for a newbie, and any recommendations for a cheap true wireless earphones, with noise cancelling.

2023年1月26日 · Most of the well-performing Chi-Fi IEMs are tuned according to a variation of Harman or Diffused Field targets, which were found via experimentation and scientific study to be (relatively) “correct” and “preferable” In my experience letting casual listeners trying my gears, IEMs tuned according to this style general win the praise.

2022年5月29日 · As I'm expecting my first Chi-Fi IEMs next week (Tanchjim Hana 2021) I'm curious to hear your experiences with Chi-Fi products in general. Bought a used headphone amplifier Matrix M-Stage over 10 years ago which is still running my 600 Ω headphones.

2020年9月12日 · Chi-fi has grown a lot and it’s more of a spectrum of headphones and qualities. Bang for your buck is just one end of the spectrum. Many of the upper end manufacturers you can easily drop a grand or more on IEM and they can arguably hold their own.

I have the following question on chi-fi, warm, musical, sounding Iem, and DAC for a desk setup under $1000. Without tarnishing the details and dynamics!

Smsl, topping, fiio, edifier, micca, hivi are some of the more popular affordable chi fi brands. There’s also chi-fi companies that make knockoff replicas of classic hifi speakers like b&w and amps like naim.

r/Chi_Fi is a community to read and publish reviews regarding IEM & TWS, which deals with a wide variety of earbuds and in-ear monitors from a variety of manufacturers mainly chifi.

What do you mean by "chi_fi"? Chinese earbuds? Why only that? Anyways, the main thing that comes to mind is the Lypertek Tevi and that's about it.

That being said, chi-fi is an unofficial term that refers to cheap Asian IEMs (in-ear monitors), but there are some truly high-end ones made in China like the qdc Anole VX that sound amazing.

As a guy with all chi-fi stuff myself, I couldn't agree more. I think in the long run it's obviously more worth it to save up and buy higher-end things made domestically/reliably than shelling out $5 and waiting a month every time you break your Chinese beaters.
