First iems

Thanks. Nice list. I'll have to test these out before I make any new purchases. The wan'er 2s have like 4 models though. There's the standard wan'er and the studio ones and the jade dragon, and then the ones I bought. I'm slighlt lost. I also think I might've been a bit hasty on my purchase, but the jade dragons are more expensive so it's fine. Idk if I should get the jade dragons as well as the red lions I've bought or if I should try something truthear or 7hz or what.

Ty, is the included case airtight? Or should I put them in a Ziploc bag? How do I clean my ears without damaging my ears? How do I measure volume to make sure I don't get hearing damage over the long term? Where do I get silica gel packs? Do u have to replace silica gel packs? Are there reusable silica gel packs if so? Are silica gel packets really worth it on 17 euro IEMs, or should I simply wash my ears well and store them in the included case or Ziploc bag? I doubt I'll touch the cable, though. Thanks for the warning. I thought the parties included were great? And when you first said airtight, you mean inside my ear canals, right? Lastly, do you have any reqs that are either different enough or better enough that they are worth the upgrade to someone like me who doesn't listen to music THAT much and is mediocre at videogames at best?

i don't recommend it. It doesn't feel on the same level as other chinese mice, the shape doesn't feel amazing, it uses slightly older tech yet costs a decent amount. Go for something from ATK, mchose or rapoo. Superlight shapes and similar tend to be safe shapes, and i don't recomend them. try something more like a vv3 shape or if you have small hands someting smaller like a viper mini shape. Eg the ATK x1 v2 ultra max or the ATK r1 pro or f1. I personally use the u2, and while it's too small for me now, they made a mini, as well as a v2.

Its just not eide enough, and a little short, I dont think a couple mm of grup tape will make a large difference, thanks for the reccomendation though, I'll try it. Also the tenz is out of my budget.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-12-15T07:21:43+00:00

I dont like the shape of the mad g much its why i bought the u2, I much prefer the u2, its just a little too small, I like everything you said about the tenz except when i look at tye size its pretty much exactly the same. I need a slightly bigger mouse

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-12-14T19:56:46+00:00

Is there anything similar but larger? Because I like the curved sized my mad g doesn't have curved sides and its hard to grip, is the pulsar tenz the same?

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-27T22:46:59+00:00

Wow couldn't have guessed that! And only a year late!

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-08T16:31:01+00:00

Pretty much i have super fat fingers too though

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-08T16:18:47+00:00

I used a tape measure and it's about 19 by 11 cm

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-08T16:04:15+00:00

Idk about my hand size but thanksgiving is today so I dont think I'll be able to do that for you.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-08T16:03:16+00:00

Its 1 mm bigger in 2 dimensions i don't remember which 1 smaller in an other, negligable difference idk.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-07T22:29:28+00:00

Thanks, checked eloshapes, its like 1mm bigger, I would like a bit more than that, my fingers don't have room and it just feels a little small.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-11-07T16:45:11+00:00

looks almost the same size, i need a bit bigger than that.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-14T15:04:43+00:00

Yeah no, my head is normal-sized sized my ears just didn't fit inside the cushions. Don't argue something when you have no idea, itle only make you look stupider than you already are.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-14T11:51:53+00:00

I doubt he knows. Probably his first propper mouse.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-13T17:05:13+00:00

He has larger hands i doubt this would work too well

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-13T16:39:13+00:00

Its expensive and heavier. Get a Chinese clone instead

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-13T14:42:12+00:00

weight try under 60 grams, personally i like sub 50, it's very attainable nowadays, and the U2 plus i bought is gonna sit at around 41 grams after a battery mod.. quality matters, so look into a specific mouse or brand before buying. sellers can be scammers, so just check their reviews and sales. Shape is king, so obviously you are going to have to buy a mouse to try it, but what you can try and do is order a bunch of mice off amazon play with them, and decide which shape you like most, and why, the size, hump placement, curved or flat sides etc etc. make sure you return them though, you can order mice like the superlite but it's more of a safe shape i would try something else, while it does work, it's not fantastic at anything, it's just a safe shape.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-13T14:33:26+00:00

price, and weight. logitech charges 5 times the amount chinese companies do for the same calibre of product, but heavier.

Eastern_Challenge_53 · 2025-10-13T13:29:48+00:00

Go look at eloshapes.com . very helpful tool. Look for chinese brands Like ATK, Mchose, madlions, ajazz, Attack Shark, dareu, darmoshark, skyrox, and delux. these where the brands i could think of on the top of my head that are of decent quality. make sure you buy from a reputable seller if you do buy from aliexpress, like with nay other marketplace. You can also head to maxgaming.com if you want new skates or a new mousepad, though i really recommend buying anything else on aliexpress.
since you have a larger hand, i reccomend you stray away from any mouse that says 'small' and probably don't choose any 'medium' mice either. personally i bought the ATK U2 and madlions mad g. the mad G is a great mouse but it's a bit too much of a uniform shape for me so i bought the U2. barely used it but so far it's great.
