Main summary
Key takeaways
Product Focus
This video reviews a set of in-ear monitors (IEMs) around ~IDR 300,000 (300 ribuan) for 2026, discussing multiple models that are either “viral” or relevant in that budget range. The main comparisons focus on tone (tuning), technicalities, and build/cable/EQ options.
No single IEM is reviewed as “the” main product. The video is a roundup/comparison of several IEMs.
Key models discussed
- JK Space / “Jakali Space” / “JKali Space”
- Kiwiears / Bell (various versions)
- Tangzu Red Lion
- KZ D1
- Harmonic Empire Chai Wenji (and “Wen Black” variants)
- Cable / EQ-related models: Kiwi Ears AD1 / AD1 Pro, Snow Sky, Sas skin, Kinera Ruyi, etc.
Key Points Mentioned (Unique)
1) Jakali Space / JKali Space (budget under ~IDR 1M, compared near ~300k class)
Pros
- Under ~IDR 1M, you get IM + a good cable (presented as good value).
- Tonality described as neutral-bright.
- Safe/usable from low to ~2kHz at moderate-to-low volume.
- Treble adds “air/brightness,” but is manageable at lower volumes.
Cons
- Midrange feels nasal, with vocals described as “nasal.”
- Treble can be dangerous/spicier at higher volume (more energy in upper regions).
- Game-dependent timbre behavior: small weapon sounds may be more audible than explosions.
User experience notes
- Mentions USB-C / type-C conversion does not affect sound.
- Mentions “no mixing” sound test (raw plug-in test).
2) “Tin HiFi” / TinHiFi C1 (and comparisons to other drivers)
Pros
- Build/look described as smooth.
- Treble behavior: rises early around ~1k, then flattens; more brightness at ~8k vs ~12k.
- If you don’t notice tuning, it’s enjoyable; otherwise it can feel “spicy.”
Cons
- Slight “metallic brittleness” in high treble (described as slightly metallic / “KZ-like”).
Comparison / value
- Claimed to be ~IDR 100k cheaper than a close variant.
- Sub-bass slightly higher in that comparison.
- Midrange timbre is described as subtly cleaner than a competing model; the difference is “very subtle.”
3) KZ / “Kifine loric” / “Loric” (subtitles unclear, but tuning described clearly)
Pros
- Has a more fun / “mad” tuning character, still usable (especially at low volume).
Cons
- Midrange “sinking” due to combined boost in mids’ lower regions plus heavy treble boost.
- Lower treble / mid-structure gives a metallic “KZ-like” feel.
- Can become too dirty, depending on listening habits and ear preference.
Comparison
- Compared to “JM1” style tuning: Loric’s boost happens later/elsewhere; the speaker prefers a different onset to avoid dirtiness.
4) Tangzu Red Lion (very viral)
Pros
- Described as fun and U-shape-ish.
- Deep sub-bass with rumble: “down to ~20 Hz,” with deep low-end impact.
- Treble/air: not overly bright and relatively forgiving despite being present.
- Still enjoyable if you EQ or reduce upper-mid emphasis.
Cons
- Midrange is cut under ~500k (mid recessed).
- Upper-mids and air are very high, which can be overwhelming at loud volume.
- Speaker dislikes that upper-mids are the first area to “cut” (likely EQ first).
User experience
- Best at lower / lower-mid loudness; at higher volume, upper-mid/air + sub-bass can feel excessive.
Comparison
- Directly compared to Loric and other JM1-type tunings:
- Red Lion’s sub-bass slope is “better/cleaner” than Loric (speaker prefers one for cleanliness).
- Upper-mid level is too high vs what they prefer in JM1 variants.
5) Kiwi Ears Bell / Bell-type (small driver nozzle; “fits small”)
Pros
- Tonally warmer than Red Lion.
- Upper-mids slightly reduced around 1k–3k.
- Slightly lower sibilance (4–8k) than Loric.
- Described as cleaner overall than Loric; safer impression.
- Build/fit notes: perforated/vented iron nozzle described as safer, plus nozzle fit considerations.
Cons
- Still feels thick (low-mid fleshy/weighty presence).
- Not perfectly balanced; emphasizes low-mid + upper-mid.
Comparison
- Less sibilance / splash than Loric, but still has some “thickness.”
6) Kozoy / KZ D1
Pros
- Described as cleaner than another KZ competitor (cleanup compared to Bell).
- Treble region may be “safe” raw-wise, but overall balance is still questioned.
Cons
- Feels thin to bright.
- Midrange thinner than earlier IEMs.
- Treble/upper treble:
- ~8k “sharp”
- ~4k dangerous region
- sibilance region higher by ~2–3 dB (approx stated)
- Less “cleanliness” vs Bell; upper treble energy comes through more.
User experience
- Speaker didn’t personally buy it because they disliked the tuning, though fit can be safe.
7) Harmonic Empire Chai Wenji (and “Wen Black” variant)
Pros
- Described as famous, and the speaker “also quite likes it.”
- Build: lighter plastic hollow, similar shell style to “Tangzu Wander 2.”
- Tuning: neutral, slightly bright, more aligned with their preference.
- More presence/body than alternatives; thicker low-mids than Wen Black.
Side-by-side differences
- Chai Wenji (“Wenji”): warmer, thicker low-mids.
- Wen Black: brighter/upper-mid more present, but slightly less low-mid body.
- Both can be EQ’d using DC/3-band/extra tooling (context: EQ availability).
Cons
- Wen Black can get brighter; speaker implies Chai Wenji handles louder listening better.
Build quality notes
- Discusses nozzle/filter safety and build firmness with comparisons to Kiwi Bell and others.
8) “Black Cat” collaboration variant (cable difference focus)
Pros
- Main difference described as the cable (Bass Audio + Kinera collaboration).
Cons
- Speaker says sound difference is small after cable swapping, implying tonal performance is largely similar.
9) EQ / Number of Bands / Value Recommendations (major purchasing guidance)
Kiwi Ears AD1 vs AD1 Pro
- If AC starts at ~IDR 100,000, speaker prefers Kiwi Ears AD1.
- AD1 Pro: wider soundstage but more expensive (~IDR 300,000) and still only 5-band EQ.
- For IDR 300k, speaker recommends Snow Sky instead.
Snow Sky vs AD1 Pro
- Snow Sky has more stable 10-band EQ (vs AD1 Pro’s 5-band).
- Reasoning: more EQ bands = more tuning flexibility and learning value.
Sas skin
- Slightly wider than Snow Sky, but:
- thicker low-mid/sub-bass
- “tribal air” not as “slanci/snappy” as Snow Sky (meaning less crisp/clean highs)
Comparison benchmark
- Speaker claims that below ~500k, nobody gets close to Gunsan Fan JM1, so EQ capability matters more than expecting “technical miracle.”
Pros / Cons (Overall Themes)
Pros
- Many options are great for the budget range, with distinct fun tunings (bass/sub-bass or air emphasis).
- Some models are framed as good value due to included cable or EQ capability (10-band EQ highlighted repeatedly).
- Several IEMs are described as “safe” depending on volume and tuning.
Cons
- Many models have upper-mid/treble emphasis, leading to:
- nasal vocals
- thin mids
- metallic/brittleness
- spicier treble at higher volume
- Repeated advice: EQ is needed; otherwise upper-mids/treble can become too intense.
Comparisons Made (Most Repeated)
- Tangzu Red Lion vs Loric: both have strong sub-bass, but speaker prefers one for cleaner sub-bass and dislikes Red Lion’s upper-mid excess.
- Kiwi Bell vs Loric: Kiwi Bell is described as warmer, less sibilant, and cleaner.
- Chai Wenji vs Wen Black: warmer/thicker vs brighter/less low-mid body.
- KZ D1 vs Kiwi Bell: D1 feels thinner/brighter with sharper problematic regions; Bell is thicker/cleaner.
- EQ models (AD1 / AD1 Pro / Snow Sky / Sas skin): decisions driven by EQ band count (5 vs 10) and price.
Ratings / Numerical Scores
- No explicit star rating is provided.
- Some approximate numeric references appear, such as:
- treble/mid emphasis using dB differences (e.g., ~2–3 dB, ~0.5 dB)
- “danger” regions around 2–3 kHz, 4–8 kHz, 8 kHz, etc.
- sub-bass depth references (e.g., “down to ~20 Hz”)
- Price anchors mentioned frequently:
- around IDR 300,000
- under IDR 1,000,000
- ~IDR 100,000 / ~IDR 200,000 / ~IDR 300,000 gaps for specific recommendations
- 500,000 as a scaling reference
Concise Verdict / Recommendation
- Safe, fun neutral-bright under ~IDR 1M: Jakali Space / JKali Space (with a treble spiciness warning at higher volumes).
- Bass impact + U-shape fun (manage upper-mids/air; EQ recommended): Tangzu Red Lion.
- Warmer, cleaner-feeling with less harsh sibilance: Kiwi Ears Bell.
- Most EQ flexibility around ~IDR 300k: Snow Sky (10-band EQ) over AD1 Pro (5-band EQ); Kiwi Ears AD1 is suggested if it’s cheaper (starting ~IDR 100k).
Overall: The video frames most choices as “good but not perfect.” Best results come from picking your preferred balance (bass fun vs neutral-bright vs thicker warm mids) and using EQ, especially 10-band options to tame upper-mids/treble.
Speaker / Role Notes
Only one main speaker is present in the subtitles (likely the channel host). There are no clearly separated multi-speaker opinions beyond comparisons and personal testing references.
