I'll be frank: I don't overly like the look of the Xenns Mangird Tea Pro. I mean, it's OK, but the gold script and glitter verges on chintzy. I generally avoid talking about an IEM's looks as it's so subjective and, after all, you've got eyes.
Yet even with this visual barrier, it's one of my favourite IEMs to date. This is a hobby where visual cues can meaningfully influence how a person processes audio – warm or cool colours and wood or metal materials all add up to influence what we expect from, and then focus in on, the sound.
