If you’re looking for a pair of in-ear headphones that deliver exceptional sound quality across the entire frequency range, you might like the LETSHUOER x GIZAUDIO Galileo. These headphones are the result of a collaboration between LETSHUOER, a well-known brand in the IEM industry, and Gizaudio, a popular YouTube blogger who reviews audio products.
Galileo features a dual-driver hybrid configuration that combines a 10mm liquid silicone dynamic driver with a high-performance Sonion balanced armature driver. This results in a balanced and immersive sound signature that doesn’t sacrifice detail and accuracy when playing music.
Appearance and package contents
Galileo’s design is very attractive: they have a synthetic resin body with rear backplates depicting the Milky Way. The cable here is made of silver-plated copper with lead oxide and 3.5 mm or 4.4 mm connectors (choose the size when ordering). The cable is audiophile, adult, without a single hint of any flaws.
The headphones come with a hard case, a brush for cleaning the sound guides, and six pairs of silicone tips of different sizes. The headphones fit comfortably in your ears and are suitable for long listening sessions. I would also like to mention the bundled case: it is very aesthetically pleasing, reliable and tactile – it works out the price of the headphones by 100%.
Bass
Our friends from outer space’s bass is deep and punchy, with excellent extension and plenty of detail. Whether you’re listening to electronic dance music, hip-hop or any other genre that is heavily reliant on bass, the Galileo delivers a truly impressive low-end performance. The bass is tight and well-defined, never becoming muddy or overwhelming, and adds a sense of depth and weight to the overall sound.

Midrange frequencies
The midrange is full and engaging, with a sense of warmth and detail that is truly exceptional. Vocals are beautifully reproduced, with a sense of intimacy and nuance that is truly impressive. Whether you’re listening to pop ballads, soulful R&B or powerful rock anthems, Galileo reproduces vocals full of emotion and nuance.
Instruments in the midrange also sound fantastic on these headphones. Guitars, pianos and other midrange instruments are reproduced with a sense of texture and complexity that is truly impressive.
Upper frequencies
The upper range on the Galileo is detailed and engaging, with a sense of lightness and sparkle that really brings out the details in music. Cymbals, hi-hats and other percussion instruments are reproduced with exceptional clarity and precision.
You can hear every nuance of the drummer’s performance, from the shimmering fade of the cymbals to the snap of the snare. Highs never sound harsh or shrill, but rather complement the rest of the sound signature with a sense of balance and smoothness.
Soundstage, localisation and instrument separation
The Galileo also offers a decent soundstage, localisation and separation. The soundstage extends a little beyond your head, with good width, but it lacks depth and height.
Localisation is good as you can easily identify the position of instruments and vocals in space. The separation is also good, allowing you to hear each layer of music clearly without much congestion or confusion.
Source requirements
The headphones are very easy to drive as they have a low impedance of 16 ohms and a high sensitivity of 110 dB/mW. However, they scale well with different sources and amplifiers. You can easily use Galileo with your smartphone or laptop. Performance can be improved with a dedicated DAC or amplifier. For example, using them with the Earmen Angel DAC/amplifier will give you better dynamics and tighter bass.
Verdict
All in all, the LETSHUOER x GIZAUDIO Galileo Dual-Driver Hybrid In-Ear Headphones are an exceptional pair of headphones that deliver the highest quality sound across the entire frequency range. They offer a balanced and immersive sound signature that does not sacrifice detail or accuracy.
In addition, the headphones are comfortable to wear for long sessions and come with stylish design and accessories. If you’re looking for a pair of in-ear headphones that can handle a wide range of genres with ease, the Galileo is definitely worth considering.
