Hanabi pairs well with warmer sounding sources
Hanabi (花火) means 'fireworks'.
Fireworks are culture, expression, celebration. They are deliberate explosions and technical shows of fine control of unpredictable elements.
Another thing that has always fascinated me about fireworks are how memorable they can be. I can still remember vividly the first time I saw fireworks in the shape of Saturn in a natsu matsuri; I remember the beaches, the parks, the camping spots. The sounds and lights.
Hanabi is a pair of earbuds with a vision that's very different from Horaiko. It has a sound signature that demands attention and makes details shine through.

Hanabi uses 64 ohm drivers and has a more intimate, detailed sound.
It's a step up from Horaiko in terms of technicalities, but it also appeals to different tastes.
The bass is quicker and has good impact, but it doesn't linger around, helping details shine through it.
It's a mostly bright and punchy set and recommended for people looking for a detailed pair of earbuds.
