RHA T20: Stainless Steel High Fidelity DualCoil Noise Isolating In-Ear Headphones with Audio Tuning Filters

This is the first time I have purchased in-ear headphones in this sort of price range, having typically spent around the £40 mark. I am someone who enjoys a wide variety of music, from bass heavy stuff (DnB, Reggae, Dub, Techno) right across through Hip Hop, Grime, Disco, Funk and Soul, Classic/Psychedelic Rock, Classical... you get the picture.The first time I put these on I was at work, and I decided to just try the earbuds that were supplied that most closely matched what I'd used before. The first few tracks I put on had me grinning from ear to ear - the sound clarity on these is phenomenal, picking out details I had only heard on very high end speaker systems. At higher volumes, the bass weight is incredible for the size of these things - it took me straight back to hearing some of those tracks out clubbing on big sound systems. Big thumbs up from me.It turns out, the ear buds I chose were my closest fit of the set. I tried a few others, but none fit as well as the first ones I tried. However, I still had issues with them occasionally slipping out. I found that using the form-able ear hooks quite tightly wrapped around the top of my ear fixes this problem completely, particularly when matched with using the clothing clip on the wire.Now, here is the most amazing thing about them: I could tell they were very well built, with steel casing and a protector for the cable at the jack end... but I managed to somehow put them through a clothes wash. Then through a tumble drier. I realised with horror what I had done, and feared for the worst - but no, they sound absolutely identical to before, and now smell fresh too. :)Would highly recommend these, particularly nice to support a smaller independent UK based company too! Keep it up RHA, I'll be back for more in the future, I'm sure.

These are outstanding monitors. The filters do what they are supposed to do, although the neutral filters sound fantastic out of the box. Comes with loads of tips including Comply foam tips and a nice case. A well engineered and well presented product. I have been searching for a decent set of IEM's that faithfully reproduces the actual sound coming through my band's mixer, and these are what I ended up choosing. I have tried a number of IEM's including Shure, that were supposed to be designed for this purpose, but none of them came close. I am not willing to spend a fortune on equipment that just cannot justify a £400 - £1000 price tag.Relatively speaking, these are a great value at £150. I think this whole industry is having a laugh, charging outrageous amounts of money for products they can manufacture for less than a tenth of the price tag. I suppose as long as people are willing to pay the price, they'll be very happy to take their money. Regardless, these are great and I do hope they remain reasonable.

I've been using RHA products since the MA750 back in 2015, and after more than 3 years of daily use, the cable's exterior finally gave way right below the ear hook, exposing the interior of the cable underneath (do note that the design of the MA750 has since been updated and the flexible ear hooks on the current model seem more durable). Considering the quality of those earphones and how much use I got out of those, and the fact that the pair is still working despite the exposed cable, I decided to upgrade to the T20 back in 2018.These are a great pair of earphones, which are extremely comfortable even after long hours of daily use, and the stainless-steel in-ear monitors feel indestructible. However, after almost a year and a half of enjoying these earphones, I seem to have damaged them, and there is no longer any sound output from one side. Upon closer inspection of the cables, it seems like the cable on the damaged side seems to be stretched and a bit deformed. As can be seen in the image, when I lay out the cables, the right cable is visibly around an inch longer than the left.While I do not recall exactly how this happened, I do remember my earphones getting caught on my clothes as I stood up from my table that day, and that's the only possible explanation I can give for my misfortune. It's a shame that such a well-built pair of in-ear monitors is let down by its cable, that too, in such a trivial manner, and I can't help but feel a sense of déjà vu.I really hope RHA updates the design of the standard T20 to have detachable/replaceable cables like the new T20 Wireless does. While the T20 Wireless comes bundled with the wired option, I really have no need for a wireless pair of earphones. That being said, since I can't wait for an updated model to be released, my current choice for an upgrade is between the RHA T20 Wireless and the Shure SE425.EDIT: After mentioning to RHA (via their website) that my T20 was damaged, they were quick to provide me with a replacement at no additional cost once they had verified my purchase and determined the problem. My replacement pair arrived in the mail last week and I still can't get over the amazing level of customer service RHA has provided. I still leave my product rating at 4 stars since there's no guarantee this won't happen again unless they switch to a detachable cable like with the new T20 Wireless, but RHA has really won me over with their excellent service.

Quise comprar los T20 por que adquirí los CL1 de RHA hasta hace poco el buque insignia de la compañía (recién salio el CL2). quede asombrado con la inmensa claridad de dicho modelo. mas tenue en especificaciones y con la intensión de usarlos para la calle conseguí estos T20.y siguiendo las impresiones de su primo lejano mejorado el CL1, el T20 también goza de mucha claridad.la caja esta bastante bien presentada, y el auricular aunque no es de cable desmontable se palpan de una robustez impecable, duraran muchísimo tiempo sin dudarlo con un cuidado ordinario.viene con buena variedad de nibs y mas interesante aun los filtros de sonido. constan básicamente de espuma que tiene como principal objetivo controlar los agudos en sus 3 proporciones.El Sonido:debo mencionar como dato importante que la impedancia de este modelo suena muy sencilla de manipular, pero son bastante sensibles a la fuente, con un iPod Nano 7, un Walkman A45 y un Galaxy S7 los agudos se descontrolan un poco. generando un sonido frio y metalizado que aunque no es incomodo pues se disfruta una inmensa cantidad de micro detalles fácilmente pero no es un sonido equilibrado.Por otro lado usándolos con un [ FiiO Q1 1er gen ], entregan un sonido mas equilibrado, graves mas presentes y bombeantes pero sin saturar. se les quita la sensación de sonido metalizado entregando un perfil muy propio de música instrumental, la separación instrumental se hace muy notoria pero la imagen sigue pareciendo insuficiente, a su vez el SoundStage aumento para bien.Finalmente usando un NuForce uDac5 el T20 saco lo mejor de si mismo (esto haciendo comparativa de los equipos que tengo, quedando la posibilidad de hacerlo rendir mejor con algún DAP o DAC superior al uDac5).el sonido se hizo pleno, la imagen se percibe muy limpia, el sonido es mas natural, el soundstage queda igual que con el FiiO pero las notas son mas realistas, el rock clásico seria un genero favorecido de este auricular acorde a su perfil.comodidad:la capsula es pequeña, pero al ser de aluminio estas literalmente introduciendo objetos rígidos al oído.personas de orejas pequeñas no quedarían bien con este auricular, personas de orejas medianas y grandes quedarían encantados. el auricular lo eh podido usar por un par de oras con apenas unas leves molestias. tampoco son para cargar toda una tarde ya que si presentan ardores sutiles, nibs de muchos tamaños para una correcta sujeción.Conclusiones Personales:el auricular tiene un desempeño impecable acorde a su precio, puedo decir que me ah gustado mucho a pesar de sus diferentes resultados acorde a la fuente usada, para personas interesadas en el, podría sugerir la compra de un DAC como el FiiO Q1 o un Topping NX4 para hacerlos rendir correctamente, si no se tienen intensiones de mejorar la fuente, es posible que el sonido no sea de su agrado, y para esas situaciones adquirir otro auricular seria mas apropiado.en el mismo rango de precio y con un desempeño muy bueno sin preocuparse por la fuente están los 1More Audio Quad Driver, pero que no se malinterprete, no recomiendo los 1More por sobre los RHA. pero los 1More darán menos problemas para manejarse para aquellos que su intensión es usarlos solo con el celular o con un dap básico.

Great build quality, great sound with slight emphasis on the bass (good for me). Comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. Protective case that comes with it is great as well and the amount of earbud tips that come with it is great. Overall super happy with the purchase and I shouldn't need another pair of headphones for a few years at least considering the great warranty too.

Premetto che le cuffie sono ancora in rodaggio,ma già posso dire che su questa fascia di prezzo dubito che si possa trovare di meglio.Già da subito,come le ho ricevute ho avuto l'impressione di avere tra le mani un prodotto davvero di qualità,il package è davvero ben curato e sfizioso come anche sono bellissimi esteticamente gli auricolari veri e propri,rifiniti nei dettagli e (almeno per adesso) mi paiono ben solidi. Ma tolta l'estetica veniamo al punto forte di questi eccezzionali auricolari,il suono:Che dire,io non sono un esperto ma è da anni che ascolto musica in cuffie auricolari e di cuffie di un certo livello ne ho provate ma come queste mai.... Sono davvero eccezzionali. Alti,medi e bassi tutti davvero ben bilanciati,il suono ha guadagnato in nitdezza e profondità e gli strumenti dei pezzi musicali riescono molto distinguibili,ognuno al suo posto. Forse i bassi scarseggiano solo un pochettino ma cambiando i filtri middle con quelli bass (in dotazione) io ho subito risolto il problema. Ma ce da dire che se vi piace la musica pompata di bassi,queste non sono cuffie che fanno per voi,tuttavia le cuffie di vera qualità sono tutte cosí e a questo punto vi consiglierei di non spendere troppi soldini.Di cuffie "sparabass"se ne trovano tante e a minor prezzo. Ovviemente poi se non disponete di un lettore hi-res non mi pare molto sensato acquistare questi auricolari e infine poi io consiglio di usare sempre file lossless per l'ascolto con queste cuffie,anche se un netto miglioramento si può avere anche con i classici file mp3. Quindi che dire...WOW! Per chi ama ascoltare davvero la musica queste cuffie sono davvero formidabili,se poi al vostro lettore hi-res ci aggiungete (come ho fatto io) un amp fiio A5 il risultato è assicurato.

Très bon produit : très bonne immersion, qualité du son impeccable, surtout avec les filtres de référence.

Lo mejor que he probado en auriculares. Antes tenia unos sennheiser y ni comparacion. Comodos si adaptas las almohadillas bien ajustadas a tu oido para ello hay gran variedad. Me gustaria los fabricaran con mandos para android. Solo hay modelo sin mandos y otro solo para iphone.
