The SD2 is made out of metal frame and a plastic faceplate very compact and with a very odd polygon shape which when use on a cellphone or dap will look and feel unnatural for me but when i plug it in the side of my laptop or tablet the shape and the angle makes total sense with the cable of my iem facing me at an angle that is very convenient and doesnt get in the way.

The SD2 may not win in the looks department for me but sure wins in the sound, what it lacks in beauty makes up for it with its performance and portability, it has a neutral to a little bright tonality with good imaging and layering of voices and instruments, balance accurate bass, mids are a bit forward and emphasized with just the right amount of sparkle in treble. for its size and 35-40usd price the sd2 can out perform in sound some of my dongle dacs thats twice its size and cost.

Pros:  • Incredible value for money – Easily the best $50 DAP available. • Excellent sound quality – Dual DACs deliver clear, dynamic, and balanced audio. • Balanced output (4.4mm) at 250mW – Rare at this price. • Great battery life – Perfect for long listening sessions. • Full format support, including DSD256 etc.. • Compact & lightweight – Easily pocketable without sacrificing power. • Fun, retro design – Nostalgic cassette-style UI is a nice touch.

Imagine sipping your morning coffee while flipping through a playlist on a device that looks like a mi...
  Kiwi Ears Aether: A Planar That Defies Expectations Pros: ✔ Accurate, reference-style tuning with musicality ✔ Deep, controlled sub-bass with no bloat ✔ Natural, transparent midrange with excellent timbre ✔ Smooth, airy treble with great detail retrieval ✔ Expansive soundstage and pinpoint imaging ✔ Comfortable fit  Cons:  ✖ Not for bassheads—this is clean, not boomy bass ✖ Requires proper ear tip selection for the best sound The Kiwi Ears Aether is an IEM that immediately piqued my curiosity. With a 15.3mm planar magnetic driver, it features one of the largest planar diaphragms I’ve encountered in an IEM. Naturally, I expected a big, bold, bass-heavy, and colored sound a fun, V-shaped tuning with an emphasis on low-end rumble and aggressive treble. But from the moment I pressed play, it became clear that Kiwi Ears had taken a completely different approach. Instead of boosting the bass to overwhelming levels or pushing the treble into sharp, overly energetic territory, ...

The moment I pulled out a record, carefully holding it by the edges with...
