It's taken my quite a while to truly understand what makes a pair of iems, so after being a complete noob last December, I've finally gotten the chance to get and listen to both the Hola and the Chu.
In contrast to crinacle's rankings, I do see how the Hola has a 'warmer' neutral sound, while the Chu has a bit more bass and treble on both ends of the frequency graph. For which one I'd actually prefer, I'd say it would depend on what type of song it would be.
Although, I thought that the Chu felt a little bit funnicky, even with the metal chassis and the earhooks applied, compared to the Hola. I also found that the Hola has a better seal without having to experiment with the ear tips.
But after some fiddling, the Chu sound fantastic, right next to the Hola, as I had said earlier.
I'd like some suggestions as to which iems I should try next for the upcoming holiday season.
