Conclusion
It’s a testament to the state of the market that I won’t rave about the value of the NiceHCK DB2s.
There’s so many great IEMs under $50 now that the DB2s are a great option, but one of many.
They’re superbly comfortable, look way more expensive than they are & deliver a fun, bassy sound that’s perfect for impressing newcomers to the hobby who are probably the intended audience.
Not everyone will love that their treble is rolled-off, but I prefer this approach for long listening sessions. Just know they aren’t suitable for critical listening when you want to hear every tiny nuance & detail.
Pity the stock cable is 3.5mm only, their BA/DD implementation isn’t the most coherent and I wish the soundstage was a bit wider, but at $22.99 am I willing to forgive those flaws? Yeah I think so.
The DB2s serve up my fill of musical enjoyment for less than the cost of a decent meal.
