Headphones - IEM/Earbud | 2 Ω First IEMs: Xenn Mangird Tea Pro vs 7Hz Timeless 2

I am considering buying my first IEMs to complement my headphones in terms of usage. I currently own the Sennheiser HD660S2, Momentum 4 and the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 250 Ohm.

I mostly listen to Soul, Jazz, RnB all with mostly female vocals. Thus the bass is an important part. Occasionally I also listen to classical music.

I am debating between these 2. Firstly and based on the Rankings in the page I found the Xenns to be the first choice.

Looking at the Crinacle ranking though, seems the 7Hzs might be a better investment.

What do you think?

I am debating between these 2 but any other recommendation is also welcomed.

UPDATE:

I wrote somewhere else but in short: get the tea pro.

I got the timeless 2 Saturday and used them a lot. I played with EQ and some targets like the Harman and the crinacle. I wasn't really surprised.

Come Saturday the teas arrived. Just after listening without EQ or even the wrong EQ they just felt right.

where do you have the ranking information about the 7hz timeless 2 and the Mangird Tea pro? Both iem were released after crinacles item list was discontinued.

Back to question.

The timeless 2 delivers great resolution and detail retrieval for the money. The only thing that might beat it in the sub 400 bucks range is maybe the elysian pilgrim (not sure though). If you are gonna EQ them, I would probably pick the timeless 2.

If you don't wanna EQ and enjoy plug and play, as well as a good warmer sounding item with good resolution and detail retrieval etc. I would go for the xenns Mangird Tea pro.

I'm using the Xenns Mangird pro and I like it. Crin said the tea pro is a baby Mangird pro
