Replacing my JBL surrounds and I’m now all SVS in my 7.1.2. HT setup.

Been waiting for to hear this for nearly three years now! And it does not disappoint!

The cable looks like it has been built with real class. 3 years? Wow. That is incredible patience.

The cable it comes with is made by Nightjar Acoustics, who also designed the Symphonium Meteor iem, and is part of the Subtonic team.

I didn’t actually wait 3 years from time of payment. It was more like 2 months from payment. :slight_smile:

But I’ve known about this IEM since 3 years ago when the team started developing it. The guys behind the scenes on this used to do a podcast with me for fun during the pandemic, and the show ended when they decided to go full-time on developing this IEM. The results are quite stunning! I’ve totally enamored listening to it right now, and that’s not something I normally say anymore after listening to so much stuff over the past few years.

Wow, I’m stunned, those are amazing!

I had to look up what they are, very impressive, and priced (sold out) accordingly! Not that I’m one to talk, having purchased Utopia 2020! :laughing:

Congrats man, I hope you enjoy them! Look forward to further thoughts as well.

No spins. 0/10. AD and Subtonic cancelled in 1 minute and 30 seconds.

But also, congrats! One day my ears will be graced by :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain::cloud_with_lightning_and_rain::cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:

Since he’s not on this forum to defend himself I can go ahead and say whatever I want about DMS and his handling of expensive gear… :wink: . It looks more precarious than it really is but I’ve moved it for future pictures so I don’t induce any more heart attacks.

It’s definitely been a great way to start the week though :smile:

Or your friends in NYC if you want a comparison of the ultimate dynamic system vs the ultimate e-stat system. :wink:

We can have a A/B test day between Storm and HE-1. Are you able to glue some marble to the side of Storm so I can feel the value?
