Ubsound Orchestra review -rudio0504

Ubsound Orchestra review

-rudio0504

http://www.ubsound.com/orchestra-earphones.htm

I would first like to say thank you to the ubsound CEO Marzio Gasparro for this review unit.

Information and specs from the ubsound website:

Fully ergonomic design with “around the ear” wearability. 1,2m tangle free wire.
High tech, lightweight, professional quality materials for maximum fidelity sound in any condition.
Full and round Bass. Rich and warm Mids. Clear and melodic Highs.`

3 pairs of ear tips included: S, M, L size.
Velvet felt pouch included.
User guide included.
High performance 10mm independent dynamic drivers HD.
Sensitivity: 115dB/mW.
Frequency response: 15-21.000Hz.
Impedance: 16Ω.
Maximum distortion <0,2%.

After burning in for around 150 hours, I decided it was a good time write a review for the ubsound Orchestra.

Build Quality:
The orchestra is constructed from plastic.
 It fits very comfortably in my ears.
I can even use it at night time in bed, and there is minimal discomfort If I fall asleep.

Out the Box Sound Quality:
At first it was warm and had a large low end/bass and was a bit congested.

After 150 Hours Burn In Sound Quality:
Highs:
The Orchestra opened up and now has better clarity and detail.
Mids:
It is fuller and has better pronounce.
Bass:
Is big in impact, like it was when it was straight out the box.
For some the music could be too big and boomy.
Separation:
Is good.
Soundstage:
Is not so wide but has better depth.

I have paired ubsound Orchestra with many different audio set ups as follows:

Set Up A:
Source:
Onkyo DPX1
Amp:
MH Audio HA11
Cable:
Wagnus Ice Sword.

Set Up B:

Iphone 6s Rose Gold USA Version
Dac/Amp:

Set Up C:

Set Up D:

Set Up E:

AK 100 Mk2 Blue LE Japan
Dac/Amp:
Chord Mojo.

Set Up F:
AK 100. Mk1 FAD Japan
Dac/Amp:
IBasso Hibino D 12 HJ Japan.

From set up A to E... I would like to share what I think is the best synergy set up with the ubsound Orchestra, as follows:
1.Set Up F
2.Set Up E
3.Set Up C
4.Set Up D
5.Set Up B
6.Set Up A

I made use of many different audio set ups to find synergy and also to eliminate the big bass sound from the ubsound Orchestra earphones.

The ubsound Orchestra is good for pop and rock music.
It is not so good for Jazz and acoustic music and classical music.


For the Price $24 USD at Amazon USA is good for value and performance.

Thank you again to ubsound for providing me with a review sample of the ubsound Orchestra
