Crinacle just gave Timeless a 5/5 in his first impressions video, he said he's truly impressed with it. Gona do a full review sometime soon

This Yanyin Rosemary seems interesting

for the same price as the weird Tequila, that would really be a threat on the market.

Will be nice. I'm eager to hear it and to know how it fares against other peers DD. Btw, congrats on the technical achievement, guys.

Looks interesting. Great potential.

Thanks. These are much easier to interpret the FR graphics.

Is this a raw measurement or it's compensated to some target curve? Because it reads quite different to me. I'm assuming it has almost neutral lower mids to bass, a recessed higher mids and very little energy into the treble region (although linear and well extended). Would that be a correct read?

Interesting. Gona keep an eye on this one.

If money is a factor, I would go: Monarch > MEST > Sony. If not: MEST > Sony > Monarch. But, knowing that you like very much the L3, I believe the MEST would be the safer pick for you.

As I see, most of your listening is within the electronic and ambient genres. So you should have no problem with the bass on the Monarch opting for the more technical. Those genres works mostly with the sub bass impact and rumble, and both has them in spades. Now if you were going to listen to...

Preview of the review from Crinacle

It's on Linsoul discord. There're some people who daily post their impressions. Crin and others reviews gave some impressions there. You welcome. Try searching for it later, I'm seeing that head-fi is getting slower because people are participating more on the diacord threads.

Are you not on the Linsoul Discord yet? A handful of people had talked about it there, Crin, Leneo, John Park, Kevin and etc... Even Hifi Dreams has both and talked about it on his chanel there. The consensus is that Monarch is more technical, reavealing, has better image accuracy and has...

if you are about details and tonality, between the two the Monarch is for you. If you want more fun sound with more bass and less neutral tonality and details, Clairvoyance.

It goes to the F#CKING MOON [edit] @crinacle if you use 20Ω it keeps that (slight) elevation in the bass to the mids between 180hz to 700hz?

I think tonality wise he might prefer the Monarch. It has a tad less midbass and no major drop that the Etymotic has after a 3khz spike to 6khz descent (Moondrop Solis and Clairvoyance also have) that he thinks ok but not much of a fan. From looking at the graphics I can think of the...

yeah it reminds the Dawn, even the B2 and Viento B that Crin also likes. But if the FR is not endorsed by a technical front he also tend to criticize it (at lest on that price or when it's hyped). And so I'm leaning to think that he really like this one and feels it's a solid release from TA...

Crinacle just gave his first impression. He seems very impressed this time with what ThieAudio accomplished with the Monarch. https://crinacle.com/2020/07/29/thieaudio-monarch-unboxing/

Here we can see it starts a small lifting at about 250hz and then a big one at 150hz... Overall seems pretty impressive. Mona looks alot more of my taste in the bass, mids and highs areas.

The thing with BGGAR is that he changes his opinions way too often, and few on occasions its some drastic change. Other then that I find his reviews entertaining and informative at least, its a good reference to get to know something new. The way I see there are 3 kind of reviewers: The...

So you have bought the Mona and Clairvy?

That was kinda obvious coming from BGGAR. He's a bass first anything else second kind of person (no problem in that, mind you). The thing that bugs me is that he's getting lazy with it. All the time he mostly talk/complain about bass and when he's supposed to talk about other FR section, he...

Here's the unboxing of both, by BGGAR
