It’s something much smaller, an old classic. Oddly I neither paid for it, nor is it a loaner …

I did indeed! Thanks @taronlissimore and @andrew!

I’ve only gotten a few songs worth of listening in, but so far I like them. This is my first experience with IEMs that cost more than $200 or so, and I have to say that the tuning seems very nice. Having heard how much people fret about matching these to a source with the right impedance, I was afraid that my low O.I. LG V20 would turn these into a bassy mess, but that hasn’t been the case. Comfort is good too, with a good selection of tips of different bore diameter which provide some nice tuning options.

I like it though, so it’s about the same price as the dealer on EBay, I love all the different wood options. How long did shipping take to get to you? Anything you don’t like about it or would change?

Yeah, about the same but direct from Thomann.

It was really fast. I want to say about 5 days (including a weekend)? Much faster than I assumed and anticipated.

@MartinTransporter had even commented on how quickly it arrived, and it shipped from his neck of the woods.

I honestly love it. It’s made really well, and I think it looks fantastic.

My only concern is which wood to choose for my next one (when I get another headphone for my main/leisure setup).

Did you see the walnut stand I posted prior to this one? That one was purchased on Amazon and retails for $79 (Prime shipping).

I have a pair of these for my computer setup, one for my Lawton mod, and one for a Focal Clear Pro I’ll be picking up soon.

For fun I tried these on an old iPhone SE which has what some consider the optimum O.I. of around 2 Ohm, and sure enough it sounds even better (more clarity, less rounded bass notes).

Was the VAT paid in advance when you ordered and they took care of it or did you get hit with another bill on entry to the US? Excuse my ignorance I haven’t purchased from the EU.

No worries.
