Here is my take QKZ x HBB Hades. They use dual 9mm LCP dynamic drivers per side.

Oooh looking forward to this
What the hell is that mess…
Mmmm nope!
I like a more neutral tuning. I already have a couple of HBB's collabs and a couple of more big bass-sounding IEMs. Great review, Thanks!
Oh, my gods, what is this…=)
9mm dd bass might be good but never as great as effortless 12mm dd true sub bass.
Great review as always. I just cannot justify a purchase on only a faceplate unfortunately.
Super review
I think a few things are obvious here. 1. HBB and QKZ accomplished what they set out to do with this set. 2. In no way whatsoever should this be someone’s only iem. 3. It is priced appropriately (so that it doesn’t necessarily have to be your only set). 4. People don’t seem to either listen or understand that this tuning was indeed purposeful and intended for basshead nation. I think it’s great that they did it. And mine are ordered. ☮️
Nice review. How does this Hades compare to the 7Hz Legato?
disgusting colab from hbb as usual
I'm a basshead (out of home, in home I'm a neutralhead), I'm use the QKZ x HBB in street for listen EDM, hip-hop and phonk, but this set looks so "trouble" to me, not looks like a big sound parade but a big swarm sound, i like how big bass creat an emotion in mids when they don't bleeding to. And i love when the treble are in a ideal quantity bringing image, extension and details.
To me, the next step for the QKZ x HBB is legato, after, fatfreq maestro series.
In conclusion, I'm waiting for my set who is coming from linsoul soon.
I enjoy the more balanced version, the QKZ xHBB. They have enough bass without being dark or dominant. They feel open with good separation. No reason to go to Hades.
Skullcandy crushers are more popular in general consumer & hated by the "audiophiles". Because most of consumers just don’t look at the graph, they put it on head & enjoy what they expect from the crusher (skull shaking haptic). EDM, hip hop, kpop, jpop, dub etc are lifeless without the lows. The more you add the more you enjoy. I love my crusher evo than any other iem & headphones i own (most of them are below 100$). I wish hades will give huge quantity like skullcandy though there is no haptic. I will purchase this wishing it will go close to skullcandy.
QKZ HADES or TRUTHEAR ZERO PURPLE?
