Fair enough. However the Traillii, like many other high end IEMs, are very much source dependent. Traillii is no exception and can sound from just good to splendid depending on the source.

I agree with @Francois_Russo’s point. The review is based on only one source, and I think that with any headphone or iem review, the use of multiple sources would be helpful to the reader, especially if the iem/headphone is difficult to drive, as the reviewer states.
The review also compares individual aspects of the Traillii with individual aspects of other iems (e.g. the bass is not as good as the bass on X, the treble isn’t as good as the treble on Y), but there aren’t any overall comparisons. Unless there are some ‘Frankenstein iems’ with the best of everything, it makes it difficult for the reader to decide if a different iem should be purchased instead.
I wish the review had been a little less angry, and a little more informative.
I have myself owned the Trialli for over two years now. Admittedly, I have ‘walked away’. I no longer need to even LOOK at anything else. EVER…Again. Currently paired with Lotto Gold Touch and Cayin N-8ll. There is no more need to ‘look’ elsewhere. Even now, after 2 solid years, NOTHING comes close to the ‘do it all’ ability of the Trialli. NOTHING. The Trialli does EVERYTHING Very Well, Not just ‘well’, but VERY well. This so called ‘review’, to me, seems to be somewhat ‘skewed’. The Trialli has ZERO issue with Treble OR Bass. So, I simply cannot ‘grasp’ what the reviewer is up to here…other than to somehow ‘try’ to cast ‘doubt’. Rest assured : HAVE…NO…DOUBTS. The Trialli HAS …NO… ‘shortcomings’. As in…>NONE.
