A New Dawn.
Daybreak debuts as CrinEar’s first full-production IEM, a bold step forward in design, tuning, and execution. Engineered to push the limits of acoustic precision and performance, the Daybreak establishes a new benchmark in the constantly advancing world of in-ear monitors.
The CrinEar Daybreak is meticulously tuned to the IEF Preference 2025 curve: an evolution of the Population-Averaged Diffuse Field target that blends natural, speaker-like tonality with a dynamic and engaging low-end response.
At its core is a fully custom driver array:
-
A custom-spec dynamic subwoofer delivers deep, controlled bass
-
Custom-developed balanced armatures provide accurate, detailed mids
-
Next-generation micro-planar tweeters ensure exceptional treble extension and clarity
Every component is purpose-built to achieve tonal perfection and immersive fidelity.

They are nice, lacking a lilttle bass but that was expected. I like them.
Coming from mostly sub $100 IEMs, I had an idea of what improvement I would hear with the Daybreak compared to the IEMs I have owned. However, I was still pleasantly surprised to notice a jump in quality. My main point of reference was the Truthear Hexa, and I was impressed to notice that the Daybreak sounds less compressed to my ears compared to the Hexa.
The amount of bass in the Daybreak was startling at first, but more so because I was not expecting it despite being aware of the tuning on paper. I really enjoy the sound of the Daybreak and I find myself having longer listening sessions compared to any of my previous IEMs.
Went to Hangout to find my first IEM, spent 1hr plus listening to several recommendations and ended up getting this. Really loving this!
So far these are amazing. They look really nice, sound great, and are quite comfortable. They only come with medium foam tips so I have had to order new ones to fit my ears but still worth it.
