Good earplugs, but disappointing durability and warranty
The Minuendo earplugs worked well while they lasted, and I liked the adjustable attenuation. However, one earplug came apart at the faceplate after only around 50 uses, despite careful handling and always being stored in the supplied protective case.
Soundbrenner declined a repair or replacement because the order was outside its one-year warranty (it was five years after the purchase; I didn't use them much during the first years) and offered a 40% discount on a new pair instead. I appreciate the offer, but replacing the entire pair is still expensive when only one earplug failed, and the experience has reduced my confidence in the product’s long-term durability.
I would have considered a discounted replacement for the single failed earplug a much more reasonable solution than having to buy an entirely new pair.
Good performance while functional, but at this price I would not purchase them again.

Hi Olli-Pekka,
We’re sorry the earplug eventually came apart and understand your disappointment. However, as you mentioned, the product was purchased approximately five years ago, while its warranty period was one year. We were therefore unable to offer a free repair or replacement.
Although we couldn’t provide a single replacement earplug, our support team offered a substantial 40% courtesy discount toward a complete new pair. We understand this wasn’t the outcome you hoped for, but we believe it was a fair goodwill solution given how far the product was outside its warranty period.

Better than All the Rest
Soundbrenner Wave Pro monitors don’t just work, they wow. Everything sounds pristine, like you’ve stepped inside a master studio. Seriously addictive sound that’s huge, immersive, and perfectly musical… You can easily find yourself hooked.
In the words of Tina Turner “You’re simply the best, better than all the rest.” That’s my Soundbrenner experience, premium, powerful, and unmatched.

Very happy!
We received the item in a very short time after we ordered them. This is the second pair of IEMs I have purchased from Steinbrenner. I love mine so I purchased a pair for my wife. Great sound quality!

Hi Frank,
Thank you for coming back for a second pair! We’re delighted that your IEMs arrived quickly and that you love the sound quality enough to share the experience with your wife. We hope she enjoys hers just as much!

Bought the Minuendo ear plugs
Bought the Minuendo ear plugs. Cheap made for the price and doesn't work as advertised. I returned for store credit because they were going to charge me $20 . I ordered Waves ie and they sent them to my old address. My last 2 orders from Soundbrenner came to my new address. They refused to contact Fedex to reroute. Then they charged me $28 dollars to replace that order. Waves are a great product but the customer service SUCKS!!!. I tried to leave a review on their site and they are screening the feedback!!I tried to leave one star and it came up with an error. when I did a 5 stars review it went through. What you read is not the whole story. My account is under my wife's name. I was given no option to keep. I have the full conversation with Dave. Try again. I have the full conversation with pictures of the "error"
As you can see by the response their position is to keep your money not resolve the problem. Their system populated my old address by DEFULT. They offered a partial refund if I kept their junk that didn't work. Think about that! Then the CEO responds with excuses not solutions. REFUND MY REMAINING CREDIT. I will not use your company again!

Hi Brian,
We’re sorry this experience left you frustrated.
For the Minuendo earplugs, you were offered either a partial refund without returning them or a standard return. You chose the return and later selected full store credit, which was issued without the return deduction.
The subsequent Wave order was submitted with the previous address during checkout. Unfortunately, we only heard from you after it had already been delivered, so rerouting was no longer possible. Nevertheless, we offered a heavily discounted replacement, which was successfully delivered to your current address.
We also do not screen or suppress reviews based on their rating. We’re sorry you encountered an error while submitting yours.
If any part of the resolution still feels unfair or unresolved, please contact our support team again. We’ll review your concerns and do our best to find a fair solution.

Probably THE BEST ears for the money
Probably THE BEST ears for the money. Maybe the BEST ears I've gotten. I've had molds, and always had a fit problem. These Do NOT move with the foam tips. As a bass player I need Low end, these deliver. Wow is all I can say.
Oh wait customer service was ridiculously GREAT.
THE BEST AROUND!

Hi Paul,

Decided I'd try some IEMs...
Decided I'd try some IEMs, considering the hype surrounding them and a more comfortable alternative to audio headgear while wearing glasses. I've been seeing ads for the Soundbrenner Wave Pros for a while now, and have been doing some weeks-long research into customer reviews and audiophiles' feedbacks before finally considering to purchase the Wave Pros.
Absolutely worth it.
For me, the moment I plugged these into my PC and put them on then played a song, I was immediately impressed - there were multiple instruments I could distinctly make out that used to be muddled in the complete audio track. This never occurred to me when I used my headset (which was slightly more expensive than these IEMs). Additionally, I experienced practically no discomfort after prolonged usage; I'm currently using the included Liquid Pro ear tips and have used them for 10+ hrs without any issues whatsoever. I imagine I could literally use these all day if I swapped out the ear tips with the also-included Foam ear tips for maximum comfort and sound isolation. I also purchased the Microphone cable + attachment combo specific to the Wave Pros as I am an avid gamer as well and my friends have definitely noticed the difference as well - they told me that I sounded even clearer than before, and I was supposedly already the clearest-sounding of the group; I definitely was not expecting that!
TL,DR: Great Hardware, Great Price, Love it.

Hi Cesar,
Thank you for such a thoughtful review! It’s wonderful to hear how much detail the Wave Pros brought out in your music, while staying comfortable through 10+ hour sessions with glasses. We’re also thrilled that your friends noticed the improvement from the microphone cable. Enjoy your music and gaming!

Store & transport Wave Pros without taking apart.
I had a question about how to store and transport my iems without taking them apart and Chris was absolutely awesome. (I was worried that the carrying case would crush them.) He/she got back to me right away. The wave pros connected to the cables actually will fit in the transport case you just have to be careful not to mess with the ear curl in the cable. Excellent customer service!
Reply from Soundbrenner2026-08-02
Hi Davi,
Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad Chris quickly confirmed that your Wave Pros can be stored in the case while connected to the cables. Taking a little care with the ear hooks will help keep everything protected and ready to use.

Customer support is a huge deal for me
Customer support is a huge deal for me. I have shied away from many companies due to lack of proper support (EG positive grid).
I was a bit skeptical on buying soundbrenners as it was an facebook had who brought me to it and normally those are a nightmare. but the deal was too good to pass. Sadly my mic died after a few months of used (even though i maybe had 10 hours on them) maybe it was a bad batch or i fed up, not sure, So i wrote to soundbrenner not expecting anything
They responded within hours which i did not expect as it was out of business support. The whole process of them troubleshooting and sending me a replacement cable was maybe 2 days . Compare that to almost a full month that it took me with Positive grid, and 0 response from Elixir strings in 2 weeks and counting).
I'm very happy with the support and the product. I use it on my MAC dock for work, directly on the MAC (if I'm working from outside my desk) I use it on my phone with an usb c converter, connecterd to the front IO of my Desktop and gave also connected to my guitar practice amp
All work with no issue
