Details and specs
The TRUTHEAR PURE is the successor to Truthear’s popular HEXA, with one dynamic driver and three balanced armature drivers in each earpiece. It has become one of the more recommended earphones under $100 in 2026, and headphones.com rates it as good as the HEXA, with warmer mids and tamer treble.
Reviewers describe a warm, even sound with strong bass; SoundGuys recommends it for bass-heavy music and action games. The treble rolls off early, so it can sound a little dark. Fit is the main complaint: the resin shells are large and the nozzle is wide, so they won’t suit smaller ears. One reviewer also argues the much cheaper Truthear GATE measures nearly as well.
- One 10 mm dynamic driver and three balanced armature drivers per side
- Impedance 13.8 Ω, sensitivity 124 dB (easy to drive from a phone)
- 3D-printed resin shells
- Detachable cable with a 0.78 mm 2-pin connector, 3.5 mm plug
