Do Expensive Earbuds Really Sound Better?

The Price Myth: Do Expensive Earbuds Deliver?

Everyone assumes that higher price = better sound.
But is that really true? Let’s test the theory.

We compared the TRN VX PRo (a sub-€100 high-resolution in-ear monitor) against a €250 premium brand to find out. The results might surprise you.

• Sound Quality: The TRN VX Pro packs six balanced armature drivers and one dynamic driver per ear, creating exceptional detail, balance, and clarity. You get crisp treble, rich mids, and deep bass - the kind of soundstage you’d expect from earbuds three times the price.

• Battery Life (with TRN BT30 Bluetooth module): Enjoy up to 7 hours per charge and over 20 hours with the charging case, matching most premium wireless models.
• Comfort & Fit: The VX’s ergonomic, over-ear hook design keeps them secure even during long listening sessions or workouts. Lightweight, comfortable, and built to disappear once they’re in.
• Build Quality: Crafted from a durable metal alloy, the TRN VX Pro feels premium in the hand and in the ear, without the premium price tag.

Verdict:

Great sound doesn’t always mean a luxury logo. The TRN VX Pro proves you can get audiophile-level performance without overspending.
You’re paying for sound engineering, not marketing hype.
