Aluminium-magnesium dome driver IEM

The CHU II uses a 10 mm dynamic driver with an aluminium-magnesium alloy dome and dual-polymer suspension. The design targets ultra-low nonlinear distortion below 0.05 percent across the full frequency range for natural timbre and fine detail retrieval.

3.5 mm wired connection limits

A fixed 3.5 mm plug delivers an analogue signal directly from the source device without wireless compression or battery dependence. The 18 ohm load and 119 dB sensitivity allow high volume from portable players, though output impedance of the source can affect frequency response.

Replaces single-filter budget IEMs

Swappable brass acoustic nozzles let the user change tuning filters instead of buying multiple pairs. The alloy casting cavity adds structural rigidity over plastic shells, making the upgrade worthwhile for listeners who want adjustable sound signatures without carrying separate in-ear monitors.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the 10 mm driver and other IEM driver sizes?

The 10 mm dynamic driver uses an aluminum-magnesium alloy dome diaphragm with a dual-polymer suspension, which extends treble bandwidth and tightens bass while keeping distortion below 0.05 %.

What does the 119 dB sensitivity mean when I plug these into my phone?

At 119 dB sensitivity and 18 ohm impedance, the CHU II reaches loud volumes from a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack without needing a separate amplifier.

What does the 3.5 mm connector cap in real use?

The 3.5 mm plug limits you to analog wired sources; it cannot carry a digital signal or inline remote power, so volume and playback controls depend on the host device.
