CCA C10 In-Ear Monitors Review

A CCA IEM that the page writes as 4BA+1DD: four balanced armature drivers and one 10mm dynamic driver on a detachable 0.75mm 2pin cable. It costs $38 in six options of three colors, with or without a mic, and suits buyers who want one price across all colors and mic choices.

Our verdict

A balanced armature and dynamic mix for someone who wants four balanced armature drivers, one 10mm dynamic driver and a detachable 0.75mm 2pin cable at $38. Look elsewhere if you need a listed impedance, sensitivity, cable length or shell material, because the listing text gives none. The main caveat is that the page's sound and noise-isolation statements are the maker's claims, and its text counts 5 options against six orderable ones.

A shopper after four balanced armature drivers with a dynamic driver, a detachable cable and one $38 price.
Skip if
A listed impedance, sensitivity or cable length is a must for you.

CCA's page writes the C10 as 4BA+1DD, and it lists four custom balanced armature drivers (30095+50060) with one 10mm double magnetic dynamic driver. The stock cable is described as a 5N 4-core silver-plated wire on a gold-plated 0.75mm 2pin connector with a gold-plated 3.5mm plug. The page also lists a silicone ear tip set in S, M and L. The price is $38, the same for all six orderable options.

Options and pricing

The six orderable options come from two choices: three colors, Black, Cyan and Purple, and a microphone choice of Without Mic or With Mic. All six cost $38, so the decision is about color and whether you want a microphone rather than price. The page text says three colors and two specification options give a total of 5 options, which does not match the six orderable options the store lists.

How it compares

The C10 costs $38. The CCA C12 is listed from $38 and its entry mentions 1DD, 5BA and 6BA, against the C10's 4BA and 1DD. The KZ ZS10 PRO X is also from $38 and its entry mentions hybrid, while the SGOR Luna, from $38, mentions a planar driver. All three sit at the same starting price.

Shipping

  • Methods and costs. The store's shipping page offers Standard Shipping (4PX, Yanwen or Yun Express), free for most countries, and Express Shipping (DHL Express, FedEx or SF Express) at 15-50 USD depending on the country, free for orders over 270 USD in most countries (checked 2026-11-11).
  • Delivery times. It says an in-stock order ships within 3 working days, Standard takes about 2 weeks after shipping out (up to 1-3 months for some countries, and the store makes no refund for that transit time) and Express takes about 3-7 days. Festive seasons and other circumstances can change the timing.
  • Taxes and fees. The buyer pays any customs, import or processing fees. The page says Standard via YunExpress is tax-inclusive for some countries, that remote areas can carry extra Express charges, and that a parcel refused or left uncollected over taxes is deducted two-way freight and may be destroyed with no refund.
  • Where it ships. The page says the store can generally ship to most countries by Express and many by Standard, and to confirm Standard with the team for your country. It cannot ship to PO boxes or APO/FPO addresses and can only use Express to Hawaii. It does not name the US, Canada, the UK, Australia or New Zealand, so confirm before you pay.
  • Lost parcels. If a parcel has been in transit for at least 3 months, the page offers a one-time reshipment or a full refund for orders under $50 and a 50% refund for orders above $50.

Returns and warranty

  • Returns. The return page allows returning any non-customized product that is still factory sealed within 30 days of receiving it, with the buyer paying the shipping. Email [email protected] within that period; the store asks for the return to be shipped within 5 working days of the RMA instructions and in most cases processes a refund within 5 business days of inspecting it (checked 2026-11-11).
  • Opened items. A product opened within the first 7 days after delivery can be returned for the price minus a restocking fee of 35% of its retail value, including when it still works properly.
  • Refund or credit. The buyer can choose a refund to the original payment method (PayPal or card) or store credit; with no answer within 48 hours of confirmation the default is store credit, which can also be prioritized during promotions, final-sale events and for items 40% or more off retail.
  • Not returnable. Customized products, including faceplate designs, are non-refundable, and the page says the same applies to carry cases, cables, ear tips and other accessories, "due to hygiene purposes". If one item in a package is defective, incorrect or missing, the refund or replacement covers only that item.
  • Warranty. The page gives a 1-year warranty on products, excluding carry cases, ear tips and other accessories, and 3 months on cables and adapters, from the date of purchase. It covers factory defects that affect proper function, not damage from human error, negligence, accidents, dismantling, water, abuse or modification (checked 2026-11-11).
  • Not covered or limited. It does not apply to items bought elsewhere (AliExpress, Amazon, local dealers and the like), prize or giveaway items, normal wear or colour change, commercial use, or items that were stolen or went missing. Coverage is limited for products 40% or more off retail, for review units and for items repaired or modified by anyone Linsoul has not authorized.
  • Claims. Email [email protected] with the order number, the issue and photos and videos of the fault. The store may ask for the unit back for a replacement. It covers shipping for some defects reported within 7 days of delivery if the fault can be shown on video or photo; after 7 days the buyer ships it back. For wrong or missing items an unboxing video of the whole sealed parcel is required.

What we couldn’t verify

  • The page's claims about vocal range, deep bass and noise isolation are the maker's claims and were not checked here.
  • Per the page, the listing text gives no impedance, sensitivity, cable length or weight, and its text counts 5 options while the store lists six.
  • We have not read an independent review of this product or the store, and the store's own ratings were not verified. We read the store's catalog description only: a specification table or image shown just on the live page was not read.
  • The shipping page names no US, Canada, UK, Australia or New Zealand times or fees: its figures are general and we could not confirm them for these countries.
