Review on 🎧 CCA C12 Wired In-Ear Monitor 5BA 1DD Sports Earbuds Headphones with Stereo Sound, Noise Cancellation - Ideal for Musicians, Audiophiles, Singers, and DJs by Bobby Plymell

I haven't had them in a while so I can't comment on their reliability, but I'll update this review if there's a bug or degradation in sound. Before I talk about the sound, I want to stress the importance of a good seal. If there's a hint of thinness, metallic sound, hiss or subtle bass in the vocals, you don't have the right compression. The C12 comes with four pairs of ear tips and none of them fit me. Unfortunately, this is a common problem I have, and I always have to use my cheap silicone tips I bought at a $1 throwaway store to collect the magnets. Somehow they fit better and sound better than all the Comply and Spinfits I have that don't fit. I all have different ears so I hope some of you are luckier than me. When you finally find the right tips, it becomes obvious. All of those audio issues I mentioned will completely go away and it will be a "wow" moment. I can't stress this enough. Don't judge this or any other thing until you are the right size for it. It can turn the worst thing you've ever heard into something incredible. Now I have to talk about sound, but I want to grab the cable quickly. I've read so many reviews mentioning how bad the cable is, but personally I love it. It's too short for desktop use, but quite suitable for wearing. It doesn't have a mic and I find it sounds just as good as the replacement cable that everyone recommends. I really think people will look at this cable and be fooled by the silver color of the cable that it's better. I even went so far as to connect the standard cable to the right ear and the silver to the left and connect them to the same thx 789 amp. I know you shouldn't be doing this, but that was the only way I could reliably perform the AB Test without pausing between mistakes in reasoning. I didn't notice any difference with this usage. The sound was completely identical on both sides, stage image and center image remained the same as when using one cable for both headphones. Now that I've got that out of the way let's move on to the sound. To be honest, I was disappointed at first. I thought I found a good fit with bearing lugs but the bass sounded dry and everything had a slight metallic tinge to it. The soundstage was paper flat from left to right and quite narrow. There was no depth at all and even the picture seemed bad. The abundance of good reviews is the only thing that made me bother to dig up those old cheap picks I have. Luckily, these tips worked and the changes were significant. With the right fit everything fell into place. Any hint of metallic sound is gone while the vocals are given their missing body and the bass is full and powerful. Though the soundstage didn't expand, it turned from a flat piece of paper into a small sphere with depth, width and height. Judging by the reviews, I didn't even expect it. While the scene doesn't stretch far past your head, it does from above, below, behind, to the side, and everything in between. Given the relatively small soundstage, I can see how some might have missed out on these opportunities if they were just testing them with music. In games, you'll really notice how well he does these things. That's where I learned how accurate the images are. Not only do the sounds come from all directions, they do it exactly. By playing fps you can easily see where the shot or footsteps are coming from. You can even tell where the bullets went unless they hit the ground near your feet. You'll definitely hear the bullet hit the ground behind you, and if you're looking at that bullet hole, it'll be right where you thought you heard the impact. I don't know if it's all the drivers, but despite the fact that some frequencies aren't boosted too much, the steps are so obvious and clear to the ear. The overall sound is well balanced. I see " I personally find that the Blons BL-03 has a lot more mid-range throughput than the C12. I know this is long, but I'll do a quick comparison of the two at the end. Although I was expecting, the bass is what it is, the mids surprised me the graphs seem to show that there should be a drop that should be noticeable on some vocals, but I can't seem to catch it with my pair. It seems that there should be a difference between male and female vocals, but I also don't find any more submerged than the other. So I'm wondering if some of the issues mentioned are the result of a poor fit. There's still a slight V shape with the most bass, but nothing feels aggressively boosted or set back. Once you set the headphones up correctly, the mids and vocals sound very natural and detailed. If I had one complaint about the mids it would be the lack of "bite" that some vocals have. When you listen to powerful singers whose voices sometimes make you wince, they may not help you. It's almost like the Sennheiser HD6xx series in that regard. He seems to focus mostly on making the vocals sound smooth and natural. I don't have many tracks with such strong singers, so maybe I'm wrong. What I worried about when ordering was the heights. I was expecting something bright but it's not. I'm not a fan of high frequencies and personally I'm tired of all those headphones that are produced with "hot" high frequencies. I need details but I don't feel tired and in some cases pain is needed. I fell in love with the DT1990 and was very disappointed. So many people and reviews talking about how "airy" and "clear" the highs are, but not too much, made me think Beyers had finally fixed their house sound, but no. It still hurts and hisses. This is far from the same level. Everything is clear, detailed and perfectly separated while maintaining an easy fluidity. In terms of height, I would classify it between the Sundara and the HD6XX. It's bright enough to get the edge it needs without causing pain or hiss. For me, this is almost the ideal level for high frequencies. The biggest shock for me was how accurate the strings and cymbals sounded. I've never heard these things sound so accurate in such cheap equipment. For me, the most pleasant surprise in the C12 was the high frequencies. At this price I am shocked. Comparing the Blon BL-03 to them may not be fair to some, but the price difference is only $10 and the difference between the two is over that $10. The blondes are awesome and amazing for fun. If that's all, there's nothing to complain about. They are musical and pleasant. They're certainly a good buy for their price, but I never get lost in them or notice anything I don't normally notice when using them. I find myself just casually listening to them. With C12 I subconsciously choose instruments and focus on them and their texture. I really get lost in them and want to keep listening to see what else I can hear in another song. The only benefit I give Blons is the soundstage in the music. Things sound a bit wider, but the picture is more general compared to the C12. The noises come from the approximate surroundings. Their images aren't good enough for games like the C12. Bass is a more balanced playing field, but unless it's recent I still prefer C12 bass to blons. With a bit of hip hop, blons can stumble a bit as the bass goes mad and colors the mids like some pop smoke tracks. No matter what the bass does, everything else remains perfectly under control with the C12. Comparing these two high frequencies becomes unfair. Both reproduce the high frequencies equally and offer a pain-free experience, but the separation and placement of instruments in the high-frequency range in the C12 is vastly improved. It is much easier, isolate the details and hear each one in its place. Oddly enough, they actually sound like the top model of the Blon BL-03 family. While there are a lot of things in this price range and I obviously haven't tried them all, they are better than anything I've tried before. If you've tried similar KZ types but felt the highs were too high, these might be perfect for you. Of course, it's not the best out there, but you get really close to them for a fraction of the price, and most importantly, the sound is great with no EQ, unlike a lot of other multi-driver Chifi gear out there today. I've tried so many chifi's for $70 and under, and almost every time the highs feel a little too high, but these fit my preference better than any other. A few things I've heard are better off costing a few hundred or more, so getting 90-95% while spending 20% or less is proof of what you can do on the budget. I can't recommend her more than I can. THE MOST IMPORTANT IS FITTING. MAKE SURE YOU GET THE CORRECT PRINT. YOU KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE IT. ALL THESE SOUND PROBLEMS WILL DISAPPEAR AND THINGS WILL SOUND NATURAL. IT'S WORTH IT.
