EUIU EI-01 In-Ear Monitors Review
EUIU's EI-01 suits someone who wants a 10mm dynamic driver on a detachable 0.78mm 2-pin cable, with a 3.5mm cable or a Type-C cable with a microphone to choose from. Listed from $29 up to $34.90, with a 20Hz-20kHz range per the page.

Our verdict
A 10mm dynamic-driver IEM for someone who wants a detachable 0.78mm 2-pin cable with a choice of a 3.5mm cable at $29 or a Type-C cable with a microphone at $34.90, in Blue, Green or Pink. Look elsewhere if you need listed impedance or sensitivity, or a microphone on a 3.5mm cable, since that option is listed as No Mic. The main caveat is that the sample-rate, lossless and sound wording is the maker's claim and was not checked.
- Best for
- Someone who wants an IEM with a detachable 2-pin cable and the option of a Type-C cable with a built-in microphone.
- Skip if
- You need listed impedance and sensitivity, or a microphone on the 3.5mm cable.
Three colors and two cable types make up the EI-01 range from EUIU, and the page describes a 10mm composite diaphragm driver, an N52 neodymium magnet and a 20Hz-20kHz frequency range. The shell is resin, the connector is a detachable 0.78mm 2-pin, and the Type-C cable carries a built-in decoding chip named KT02H20. Prices run from $29 to $34.90 over six options, and the listing text gives no impedance or sensitivity figure.
Options and pricing
Six options come from two cable types and three colors. The 3.5mm No Mic version is $29 and the Type-C with Mic version is $34.90, and the price lines do not change with Blue, Green or Pink. Per the page, the 3.5mm cable is a four-strand 32x0.05mm OFC type, while the Type-C cable is a 12x0.08mm OFC type with a built-in decoding chip and a microphone.
How it compares
The CCA DUO starts at the same $29 and the CCA Phoenix at $28.90, while the MOONDROP Position is a flat $29.74. The EI-01 runs up to $34.90 for its Type-C with Mic cable. The sibling entries carry no spec rows here, so the EI-01's 20Hz-20kHz range and 0.78mm connector cannot be set against theirs.
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.
Before you buy
Linsoul says it was founded in 2016 by the Crazy HiFi team to bring Chinese HiFi makers closer to listeners worldwide, and that it now sells other makers' products alongside four brands of its own, THIEAUDIO, Kiwi Ears, ZiiGaat and Tripowin (checked 2026-11-11).
We have not read any independent review of this product or of the store. Ratings and owner reviews shown on the store's own pages are the store's and were not verified.
What we liked
- The page lists a 20Hz-20kHz frequency range and a 10mm composite diaphragm
- A detachable 0.78mm 2-pin connector is stated, so the cable can be swapped
- The page quotes up to 384kHz/32-bit for the Type-C version, with a named decoding chip
- Conductor details are given: OFC, four-strand, with a PVC outer jacket
Worth noting
- Impedance and sensitivity are not listed for the EI-01's driver
- The Type-C with Mic version costs $34.90 against $29 for 3.5mm No Mic
- The page's lossless and sample-rate wording for the Type-C cable is the maker's claim, not checked here
- The 3.5mm version is named No Mic, so per the page a microphone is only on the Type-C version

What we couldn’t verify
- Per the page, the sound wording (transient response, analytical capability, detail retrieval) is the maker's claim and was not checked here.
- The page says the Type-C cable supports digital lossless audio at up to 384kHz/32-bit, and the listing text also leaves cable length unstated.
- 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.
