Yes I totally agree, the Rn6 and Volur are much more similar than different, which is why it was the IEM that got the closest to the Volur for me, in the sense that, I think I could be just about as happy with the Rn6 for that sound signature direction the Volur lands in. Which to me is...

do we have any inkling from Aviot they are coming to the US market?

oh thanks. because everybody cares so much, my Pilgrim have landed in the States. I hope they make it to my local carrier over the weekend. Elysian sent me an email saying that being one of the first to get the Pilgrim, they would love feedback on their social media. We are at least some of the...

well I have the MTW4 but won't have the Aviots for a couple weeks at least. I am also curious for this comparison.

That's a great collection in a short amount of time. I have heard the U4S, The Monarch Mk3, the Mest Mk2 and the Rn6 and still own the Volur. I owned the U4s and the Monarch but only demoed the other two. The Volur is my favorite of those. I thought the closest competitor was the Rn6 but I...

this is hilarious. well, the description of the condition isn't exactly confidence inspiring, so I'd pass.

Except I never made any kind of 100% statement that would warrant a response like that - I said a lot of a certain subset of this hobby's consumers would be like that, and that implies out of multiple subsets of people in this hobby. So why did he take it so personally when it had nothing to do...

Anyway this isn't really dramatic it's just a discussion about products. When someone theorizes that a product must be subsidized to be that quality at that price, They are perfectly encapsulating the price to perceived quality relationship. This has been well studied and is very real. I fall...

You are the one theorizing out loud that this must be funded somehow. I simply responded to your post.

The Letshuoer EJ07M are similarly specced in a similar price range. It's Letshuoer subsidizing those as well? Also Shenzen is not new.

What do you disagree with exactly? Cuz your statement doesn't make any sense. I didn't make a hard and fast rule about anything about IEMs sound wise. I said it varies. But one thing that is 100% true though if you know anything about business and consumer culture and capitalism is that there...

I'm not so sure about that. A lot of price is for perception and flexing purposes. It's not all that for every brand or model at all, but it is definitely a solid part of the pricing structure in many cases, and it's taught that way. It's taught to businesses and it's taught to consumers. It's...

Jabra elite 10 for wireless. They are very small and low profile

Have you heard sound impressions of the Dunu collab? I do remember the Pilgrim having a nice solid punchy bass and very good treble detail with no harshness.

That's tough but I heard the supermoon first at Audio46 and remember being impressed. When I heard the Pilgrim at CanJam, I definitely remember being more impressed. When I get the Pilgrim I can say more as I had the supermoon for a few months. The only reason I sold those was for money to...

are these still available? what did you find missing from them that you wanted to sell?

This is probably already gonna be in there but looking for a specific comparison between each sound frequency range - bass, mids, treble, then the overall impression of the cohesive sound, and stage and imaging. Excited to hear your thoughts and congrats on the set!

The Pilgrim is available for pre-order on Musicteck as of yesterday, but not the noir yet. No ETA is on their website though.

My first world problem today is the wait for these Aviots. I did have to wait many months to get my Audeze Maxwell pre-order and that was a lot worse than this so far, but I have become more impatient it seems. I'll have to speak to my therapist.

Yeah they sure do look purty in that photo

I have wondered this myself. They definitely look like larger sized TWS so I would image a larger battery. But potentially other efficiencies in there as well.

My Quattro cable is defective. I'd get static cutouts from the right side, when moving the IEM to get on or adjust in my ear. I switched to an Eros II cable and now it's all good. I'll have to get a replacement cable from them for if and when I sell the Quattro. The threading that keeps the...

I listened to the Anni at CanJam next to the Pilgrim. Same tips. I'd pick the pilgrim every time and get something else with the $3K saved, like the Trifecta. The Pilgrim had a great overall sound, including a nice punchy bass, whereas the Anni sounded like something for trebleheads. Or for...

I don't have an apple phone. My aviot app updated a couple weeks ago, then updated yesterday. Google Pixel 8 Pro. Ingest that information as you will.

If I click on my order link it does say shipping in Late May, I just checked. So just going to put it in the back of my mind.
