In this video, I reviewed the HiBy Yacht 10, a $129 single dynamic driver IEM that, in my opinion, is one of the most impressive “traditional V-shape” sets I’ve heard in a while. It’s midbass-heavy, the mids are a bit recessed, and there’s a lot of upper-mids-to-treble energy—so the whole thing just sounds fun, engaging, and physical. If you love V-shaped tunings, this is honestly a must-try, but I’ll also be clear: if you’re shout/treble sensitive, this might not be for you. I also covered the unboxing, build, and fit. The cyber-mecha look (orange/silver) initially worried me because these designs can sacrifice comfort, but the Yacht 10 ended up being surprisingly comfortable and pressure-free with a decent seal. You also get HiBy’s CU4 modular cable, which is simple but lightweight, soft, and basically no-microphonic—one of my favorite modular cable implementations, even if the jacks on my unit were a bit hard to push in. Sound-wise, the bass is the headline. I gave it “best bass” territory for tactility and nuance (with some trade-off in cleanliness up top). It scales best at low to medium volumes and, importantly, it really wants a neutral source to keep the presentation cohesive. I wrapped up with comparisons (D13, EA2000, Project Ace, Plume) and why this set is tuned for timeless fun rather than modern meta neutrality.
