TRN ST7 - ranked #619 of 1084 In-Ear Headphones · Editor's rating 3.6/5

#619 TRN ST7 Discontinued eBay

Pros: A hybrid with coaxial 10mm and 6mm dynamic drivers plus five balanced armatures. It measures reasonably close to the Harman target (score 69 across three measurements).

Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. Treble sits about 4.7 dB below target, a dark, relaxed balance. Bass sits about 2.8 dB below target, so it sounds lean. A 2.64 dB spread from the target shows peaks and dips that better tuned sets avoid. Its score rests on three measurements.

Is the TRN ST7 right for you?

Buy it if

  • you are sensitive to bright or sharp treble (treble sits 4.7 dB below target).
  • you are happy to use EQ: our preset lifts its Harman match by about 17 points.

Skip it if

  • you want more bass (about 3 dB below target).
  • you want to buy it new: it is discontinued.

Frequency Response

How the TRN ST7 measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is the median of 3 independent measurements, so one odd sample or rig cannot skew it, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
