TangZu Tian Peng VS Softears RSV MK II

Youtube Video Summary

TangZu Tian Peng arrives as a 1DD + 6BA + 1 bone-conduction hybrid around $630–$650 with a striking, oversized shell that still wears comfortably. The build feels premium: sturdy two-pin sockets, a handsome 4.4 mm cable with a reliable chin slider, and a generous accessory spread including Sancai/Noble-style tips and a genuinely luxury case. Packaging is a highlight—easily in the top tier of unboxings and a big part of the product’s appeal.

Sonically, performance sits in the “fine but middling” camp. The graph promises tasteful bass and controlled upper mids, but in practice the low end lacks impact—coming across a bit flabby—while the mids and treble are merely decent rather than crisp or pristine. Extra energy around 4–6 kHz and ~8 kHz can add hiss/edge, and the overall tone could use more warmth (think earlier bass rise near ~200 Hz). It’s an improvement over the discontinued Baji in air and detail, yet still feels short of expectations at this price.

In comparisons, alternatives like Symphony Ears Prestige (clearer tuning with better balance), Mangird/Xenns Top Pro (more pristine, better controlled treble), Shuoer YU9 (smarter bass rise), or even fun picks such as Punch Audio Martillo and the Zigge Crescent offer stronger value or more engaging sonics. The Tian Peng’s bone-conduction implementation brings some charm but doesn’t transform the experience; given the price-to-performance mismatch, this is a hesitant recommendation—worth a demo if the aesthetics and packaging allure, but not the go-to for pure sound quality.
