[Preview] LEAR Le01

I was just being offered a chance to review a pair of freshly out-of-China IEM called the Le01, made by a new company called LEAR. The IEM is currently on its way to me and hopefully I will received by the weekend (or early next week at most). The interesting bit about this IEM is it received quite a few good reviews on some early adapters as being a great bass heavy IEM with good value of money. I guess we will see how well it actually turns out in a few days. For now, please allow me to share the spec with you all.
  • Driver unit: 10.7mm dynamic transducer
  • Frequency Response: 10Hz~26 kHz
  • Impedance: 20 ohm
  • Sensitivity: 112dB/mW at 1 kHz
  • Rated Power: 10mW
  • Max power: 40mW
  • Plug: 3.5mm
  • Cable length: 1.3m
  • 3 pairs of single silicone flange ear-tips (2 small, 2 medium, 2 large), and 1 pair of bi-flanges ear-tips. 1 shirt clip.
[UPDATE] Just got the Le01 from the delivery man and I already gave it a listen. So far the sound quality has really impressed me. It is another one of those IEM with high value factor. I was told the SQ will improve after 100hrs of burn-in and this is what I am doing currently. The full review can be expected before the end of next week (hopefully). here is a teaser's shot:
