7Hz x Crinacle Dioko Review: One of the Best Value IEMs

The video is in Arabic.

Hey everyone,

The 7Hz x Crinacle Dioko is one of Crinacle’s latest creations. He’s the best-known name in the headphone world, with the largest database of IEM measurements. A 14.6 mm planar magnetic driver, 16 ohm and 106 dB sensitivity according to the company, and a 0.78 2-pin connector. It’s full metal, with a glass back.

Who is it for?

• Anyone who wants a balanced neutral sound with excellent detail and great value. Not for bass heads.

Strengths

• The bass is 10 out of 10: rumbly, airy, deep sub-bass, and near ideal mid-bass with excellent control.
• The mids are natural and balanced with no bass bleed or harshness, and male and female vocals are rich and natural.
• The treble is sparkly and airy with excellent detail, and the clarity is excellent.
• Detail and micro detail clarity are excellent, and the 3D feel is excellent.
• The 3-core cable is one of the nicest in its class, and it comes with a storage box that holds everything.
• Its bass and mids measurements are among the closest to my target.

Weaknesses

• It needs more power than usual: at least a mid-range dongle (between $25 and $50).
• It’s a bit heavy, and the big shell might not stay put in small ears.
• The 8000 Hz peak in the measurement turned out to be real when I tested it, but it didn’t cause harshness in my rating.

Verdict

I definitely recommend it: at the time of the review, no planar IEM matched this performance at this price.

Note: this review is from 2022, so price and availability may have changed.
