What we hear

Basshead & Smooth

The Symphonium Meteor is a small earphone with a big, warm sound, where the bass hits harder than you'd expect from its size and the treble stays relaxed, with just enough air on top to keep it open. The compact aluminium shell suits smaller ears, and it comes with a cable made for it by Nightjar Acoustics. It's tuned for fun rather than analysis, so if you want every detail laid bare and vocals up front, this isn't the one.

What others ask  about Symphonium Meteor

Is the bass on the Symphonium Meteor sub-bass focused or mid-bass punchy?

Punchy first, with good depth underneath. Bass is the headline on the Symphonium Meteor, and it hits harder than most earphones at its price, so kick drums and 808s have real impact. Because it comes from balanced armatures, it's tight and quick rather than a slow, rolling rumble. If you want the deepest bass in a small shell, the FatFreq Maestro Mini goes lower.

How do vocals sound on the Symphonium Meteor?

Warm and a little set back. On the Symphonium Meteor voices sit behind the bass, and on some recordings they can sound slightly thick rather than crisp. That's the price of a bass-led tuning, and I'd rather say it here than have you find out at home. If vocals are your priority, the Juzear Light Shuttle keeps them clean and forward with a quiet background behind them.

Is the treble on the Symphonium Meteor smooth, sparkly or sharp?

Smooth in the middle, with a little air on top. The Symphonium Meteor pulls back the part of the treble where harshness and sibilance usually live, so hi-hats don't sting, then adds some air higher up so it never sounds closed in. If you love hearing every tiny detail, you may find it too relaxed. For more sparkle, the Binary Acoustics EP321 MEMS is the bright one.

Is the Symphonium Meteor fatiguing over long sessions?

Not from the treble, which stays relaxed, and the Symphonium Meteor is small and light enough to wear for hours. What can tire you is the bass if you're not used to a bass-led sound, so keep the volume sensible on long sessions. If you want warm and easy with less bass weight, the Hisenior Mega5EST is the gentler choice.

Is the soundstage of the Symphonium Meteor intimate or wide?

Average in size, with clean placement. The Symphonium Meteor sounds close and cosy rather than huge, which suits its warm, bass-led character, and instruments still keep a clear position left to right. If a big, open stage matters most, the Symphonium Zenith, its flagship sibling, spreads much wider and deeper.

Does the Symphonium Meteor fit smaller ears?

Yes, it was made for exactly that. The Symphonium Meteor was shrunk on purpose after people struggled with the size of Symphonium's bigger models, and the flush connectors help it sit close to your ear. Get a deep, secure seal, because the bass depends on it. Narrow-bore, wide-bore and foam tips are all in the box, so finding that seal is easy.
