Bought these to pair with some 7hz SONUS 1DD+1BA IEMs. My son tells me he hasn’t charged them since we bought them. 60 DAYS AGO!!!! He uses them while we drive around doing errands and at school when he’s allowed to. Would have rated them higher but at this price point there isn’t a mic or environment mode, understandably. Other wise they would have gotten 5 stars.
I did a 23 min video on this set on my YT channel, but to save y'all some time, I named this set my IEM of the Year for 2025 and every time I go back to them, my decision is reaffirmed. I have yet to hear a set that has the effect of transporting you directly to where the musicians were when the recording took place. The soundstage matches the venue - from studio to arena - with a precision that I had not experienced before. You couple that with outstanding bass response (sub and mid), clean, engaging mids, and absolutely incisively clear, polished and detailed treble, and a very natural timbre and you get a "kilobuck" set for under $400. It is well worth the ask and it will be a different experience from anything else in your collection. That's what it comes down to for me. Highly recommended. -BangsAudioReviews
I have mixed feelings about this device. I ultimately chose to keep it because, for its core functions—digital-to-analog conversion and providing ample power for my unbalanced headphones—it performs well, and I do enjoy many of its features.
My main criticism is with the 4.4 mm output. While it is physically a balanced connector, the internal amplification topology does not appear to be a fully balanced design, so there is no real performance advantage when using balanced headphones. In practice, it functions more like an additional convenience output than a true balanced stage. I think this should be made clearer in the product description and labeling, as “balanced” can reasonably lead buyers to expect a corresponding internal architecture and performance benefits.
I may still have considered purchasing it with that knowledge, so I can’t be overly harsh. However, clearer communication from the manufacturer would have set more accurate expectations. To their credit, Linsoul customer service did offer to initiate a return process when I raised the issue.
I had originally hoped to take advantage of a balanced output in the future, so I was disappointed in that regard. However, since it meets my current needs, I decided to keep it despite those reservations.
Sound good but pretty awkwardly shaped and uncomfortable to wear. thats about it. battery is nice, ANC is nice, touch controls are nicely configurable and not too easily triggered during frequent fit adjustments. includes a variety of ear tips.
Ultra high quality cable, minimal memory, very flexible with a slick braid to the cable. Swappable terminations between 3.5, 4.4 and usbc. Locking collar on terminals makes everything feel nice and secure.
I've received and used these for 3 months, 5 times a week. Good sound for the price and a nice feel. However, I left them for 2 weeks in their box and one of the two earphones died; the other lost sound quality. I'm really disappointed in the product; they were perfect for my use but really fell short in terms of durability. I can't recommend them now.

The eartips keep falling out when I pull the iems out of my ear when i remove them. Only complaint.
The only complaint is that their face laki the blue panels got really scratched pretty quickly but everything else absolutely perfect
Tbh I didn’t like the feel, nor was i able to use both ear buds at the same time which was extremely frustrating. I’ve heard it work for others so don’t let this review scare you off. I am just saying it didn’t work for me so i gave them away. It does work for some situations though.
It wasn’t delivered to me because the package had no address and there was no follow up of its whereabouts

First weeks no problem, these iems seemed like the best audio purchase of my life, really good quality, since 2 weeks ago right earbud started sounding muffled and I tried to clean it and stuff but now it's quieter than the left one, saw some people on Reddit with the same issue.

Sounded great out of the box, however about a month in both pairs have now one earbud which is more quiet than the other. Has to be noted that I am not the most gentle user and I did stuff them into bags and pockets however 1 months of not very irregular use seems a little short.
