Sound Analysis (Red Module)
Lows
The X-One has good sub-bass quantity and the extension is commendable. The sub-bass reproduction is able to provide a nice rumble. The bass decay is quick and it helps to elevate the overall agility. The bass texture is rendered smoothly. The mid-bass has a fair amount of body and the slam is delivered with a tight punch. Each bass note is articulated well with intent.
Mids
The midrange boasts great transparency level and there is good details retrieval. Vocals take on a leaner presentation. There is a clean and detailed expression. The lower midrange has moderate quantity and male vocals are expressed clearly albeit with reduced body. The upper midrange has a nice emphasis and female vocals are expressed in an energetic manner. The X-One delivers a focused midrange.
Highs
The treble is extended well with no sibilance and harshness. The amount of air rendered is great and there is an open top end. There is a crisp treble presentation with a fair amount of body. The definition is good and treble articulation is precise. There is a nice amount of sparkle to inject energy at the top end and it helps to create a lively feeling.
Soundstage
The X-One has a natural soundstage expansion with good width magnitude. There is an effective level of depth rendered.
Modules
There are 3 interchangeable modules in total – blue, black & red. The blue module has a fuller lower end, the black module has a more balanced sound and the red module has more treble presence.

Hey! I was wondering if this would be a good first purchase for an IEM. I realize that this is a newer IEM and there aren’t that many reviews on it (yours might be the only one actually), but how would these compare to other IEMs you have tested in the same price range (I am looking for about 300 and under)? Are the Anew X-One up there as one of the better/best ones? Thank you!

Hi, you can check my comparisons section. The Anew X-One is definitely one of the better IEMs in this price range. You may want to check out the Penon Orb too. Vocals on the Orb are amazing. Cheers.
