Yanyin Canon II
The Perennial Paradigm of the Yanyin Atelie
Canon as Yanyin Studio's longest-running product line, has very distinctive features, and has been recognized by many users. This Canon II is also a chic product with some new features in addition to the original excellent design, such as such as the latest bio-dynamic driver, Galaxy-looking faceplate and graphene single crystal copper silver-plated cable.
Classical, Yet Not Outdated, Structure
The Canon II perpetuates the quintessential "1DD+4BD" configuration. The "1DD" employs a third-generation bio-diaphragm Dynamic Driver, accompanied by a dual-chamber spatial design, which optimizes air pressure balance, thereby enhancing low-frequency dynamism and facilitating deeper immersion. Consequently, an audiophile-grade low-frequency experience is attainable even with earphones. The "4BD" comprises two full-size Balanced Armature drivers for mid-to-high frequencies and an additional two for high frequencies, resulting in a harmonious sound density across these ranges, ensuring outstanding audio quality.
High-Quality Cable to Attenuate Stethoscope Effect
The Canon II’s auricular cabling utilizes four strands of graphene single-crystal copper plated with silver. The cabling has a supple texture to mitigate the stethoscope effect and is supplied with customizable plugs and jacks that can be freely paired.
Physical Acoustic Conduit, Multiple Tuning Modalities
Canon II includes two independently controllable low-frequency switches, affording four tuning modes. Furthermore, the exterior boasts a medical-grade resin with a handcrafted shell, surpassing the durability and eco-friendliness of 3D-printed alternatives.

High-performing IEM praised for excellent sound quality, particularly for gaming and electronic music. Customers said "best sounding iem" with "superb build quality." Strong bass without overpowering mids. Some noted concerns about clarity on higher tones and customer service responsiveness on returns/warranty issues.
First I want to say thanks to linsoul for the fast shipping to the United States. The Yanyin Canon 2 is the best sounding iem I've purchased. Great for most genre's and gaming. Also very nice looking and comes with a nice cable. Highly recommend
I've had these IEMs for a few days and they're my first. I am used to Beyerdynamic headphones, I had many different models and all are very good. But the Canon II have nothing to do with it, they are way above all my expectations. I'm not an audiophile so I couldn't give an objective opinion on the technical characteristics. But my god what happiness!
I mainly use them for techno/rap/drum&bass music and a lot for gaming. They are perfect for me.
I'm not an audiophile, just a casual getting into this hobby and want an IEM that is a great one and done. It's been less than a week but so far, my experience has been positive when listening to music genres (pop, rap, R&B, and EDM), playing games (FPS, open worlds, and roguelites), and Youtube. Overall, the IEM is an upgrade coming from my Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and the Sony WH-1000XM4.
The pros are that the Canon 2 has good bass, detailed vocals for males and females, and isn't fatiguing when listening for 4+ hours every day. The soundstage is wide and has good imaging, making an immersive experience when playing open-world games, and can hear better footsteps for shooters. The Canon 2 looks nice and has good build quality and comfort when wearing it. Luckily mine has no rattling, nor do I experience the driver flex issue. The switches have four configurations, allowing how much bass you want but I left it at default settings which has done me a solid. The brown faux leather case looks and feels nice, but the default cable is decent, so I changed it with the Tripowin Danube for better comfort and to match the Canon 2's looks. The default ear tips are also decent so hopefully, when I get the Spinfit W1s it should make my listening experience better.
As for cons, I wish the Canon 2 came with interchangeable connectors and a cleaning kit because I find the accessories lacking for its price. Some will find the Canon 2's treble to be less energetic than others (but I find the Canon 2 to be good enough, so your mileage may vary) and the switches don't change much of the bass (might as well EQ it and I guess the same can be said for the treble).
Despite its flaws, I still recommend the Canon 2 for a first-timer but if you're on a tighter budget I've been told the Simgot EM6L and Kiwi Orchestra Lite are good alternatives.
EDIT: Just got the Spinfit W1s and they are more comfortable to wear and improve the sound quality even more, highly recommended
This has quickly become my new daily driver set. The tuning is energetic and engaging without being overly V-shaped. The bass is powerful and addicting but only slightly bleeds into the mids. Despite having two switches there seems to really be three different tuning modes: off-off, on-on and one-up-one-down. The resulting tunings are mostly different in bass presentation, I’ve found the middle tuning to be the right balance for my ears.
The looks are phenomenal and the fit is acceptable, not the most secure, but fine for me. I ended up switching to my go-to ear tips in Spinfit W1s. YMMV with the included tips. The only real complaint I have is at this price point I would have liked a cable with interchangeable connectors.

Amazing!! Best IEM i have bought
Quick delivery and easy to deal with, very smooth transaction. Really loving the canon 2 and the sound of these are unmatched when gaming. Highly recommend and would definitely not hesitate to continue purchases from linsoul.
The build quality and sound is superb! My first pair of iems that are on the pricier side, but they really do feel and sound worth it.

Yanyin canon II. Used them exclusively for Call of duty, no music at all. they don’t have crazy amount of mileage on them. I loved them they were a great IEMs for gaming. But unfortunately the left IEM died inside of a yr. Bought them in June and died exactly 23 days short of a yr. I’ve emailed and messaged them on FB and they aren’t responding to my request to get a warranty replacement. Im really disappointed man, such an expensive IEM. I won’t buy from them again. Super unfortunate man.
Hi there,
We apologize for any inconvenience you have encountered with your left IEM.
Due to the high value of the product, we need your assistance in sending it back for inspection to determine the specific issue and then provide a targeted solution.
As our warranty policy states: Items claimed to be faulty after 7 days have to be shipped back to Linsoul for us to check for any factory defects. Linsoul Audio will not be covering the shipping cost. We will only cover the repair/replacement and return shipping (excluding any possible local tax/import/processing fees).
We appreciate your understanding.
I like them but i wish there was more clarity. I upgraded from moondrop starfield and overall i like them but starfield was more comfortable for me. I found little problem with "s" sounds and some higher tones. It's hard to find any Wavelet profilew for them if someone have pls link. I'm using SpinFit W1s 2gen tips but i wondfer should i try dunu ss eartips.
It is really good for electro...particularly melodic techno. I enhanced the boom boom (the bass?) with the external set. It does a nice deep boom boom without choking the mediums and trebles. One of the best IEMs in that price range.
It's exactly as the title says.
The sound has clear outlines and feels energetic. Personally, I liked the first switch-on state.
It is one of the top three products purchased under $400.
Fantastic build and finishing. The galaxy-looking faceplate does look beautiful.
It sounds great especially on Pop Rock, Dance-Pop and Hip-Hop tracks. Nice sub-bass extension and mids without sibilance. Not the widest soundstage. That being said, how often do we come across iems with a large soundstage? Would go for headphones for that.
The 2 tuning switches don't seem to make much difference. Either my ears have grown old and less sensitive or the difference is subtle. Not a big problem as the sound signature is nice.
Just as good as the OG Canon or better. Havent burn in yet. There is NO driver flex suction effect on this Canon 2.
Hi, right now 3.5mm jack for yanyin canon ll is sold out, will you guys planning to restock in the future? Because I want to buy it.
Hi,
Last ready stock left for now. We have already restocked, so if you want to buy it, please act quickly! Thank you!
Hey, I'm very interested in these IEM's.
Would these be good for gaming?
Thanks.
Hi there,
While the Yanyin Canon II IEMs offer a hybrid configuration with a biological dynamic driver and four balanced armature drivers, along with features like a high-quality cable and medical resin shell, they may not be specifically optimized for gaming. Gaming headphones typically include features like low latency and 3D audio effects, which may not be present in these IEMs. However, they could still provide an immersive audio experience for gaming if paired with a suitable audio setup.
Hello. Is the 4.4mm cable conector balanced?
Hi there,
Yes, the 4.4mm cable is balanced.
Does anyone know where I can purchase replacement tips for these IEM? Looking for the same exact one that are currently on the Yanyin Cannon 2.
Hi there,
The nozzle diameter of Yanyin Canon II is 5MM, and the eartips are usually selected 4.5MM, you can purchase suitable replacement eartips according to this size.
this IEM for me is expensive but very beautiful. my question is how to do the maintenance of this IEM if ever something is broken inside or even just for a maintenance for longevity? Thank you

is this good for smaller ears? or the kiwi orchestra lite is better for smaller ears?
Hello there,
Thank you for your inquiries.
Based on the feedback we have received, both the Yanyin Canon II and the Kiwi Orchestra Lite earphones have generally good fit and comfort. However, it's important to note that ear shapes can vary from person to person.
We recommend that you also consider reading reviews and assessments from other users who may have similar ear size and shape to yours. This can provide you with valuable insights to make an informed decision that best suits your individual preferences.
When will you release this on amazon? I don't want to deal with customs and extra charges as i am based in Sweden if i would order from your site.
