[Craft Ears]

Friends!
It's our pleasure to announce that we, Craft Ears, have become an official Sponsor of this fantastic forum. It feels incredible to support the community that has welcomed us with arms wide open. Many of You already know us, but a small introduction is in order for those who don't.

What is Craft Ears?
Craft Ears is a passion project of musician and audiophile Jędrzej Nowicki: @Jedrula1 . His adventure with IEMs started 10 years ago when he built his first earphones. More and more experiments have followed. The experience accumulated over that time manifested as Craft Ears. The company was founded in Poznań, Poland. Tomorrow, we are celebrating our 4th birthday! Stay tuned for the celebrations

What do we stand for?
- Technology – we use the latest CAD software, tools, and materials to cross the boundaries of what can be achieved. If we can try something new, we will. If we like it, then you will hear it Through research, Jędrzej came up with some fantastic, proprietary solutions like SES™, True Load™, and RASEN Bass™. We will explain those technologies in detail in the upcoming future. We also have some new tech loaded in the chamber. All are coming soon in this thread!
- Quality – You expect the best, and we offer nothing less. All of our IEMs are handcrafted to perfection, so You get the best experience possible. Whether you are shredding it in front of thousands or enjoying music after a long day, you can count on our earphones to be there for You!
- Customization – whether it's UIEM or CIEM, we give You a plethora of options to choose from. Colors, additions, and materials are all ready to go. Express yourself with Your IEMs!
- Customer service – we are here for You. Whether You have trouble selecting the best model, or have a concern that needs solving – message us, and we will do our best to help. We got your back!

Glad to see you guys here more often following.

Happy to see more EU IEM makers !
I see that your official website only lists CIEMs and also the Configurator is not up yet.

Any plans for UIEMS ?
I’d love to see some musical ones with a good thump in the lows, not all reference and analytical

Can you believe, that it's been already 4 years since Craft Ears exists? Time flies...
Only last year we were celebrating a few milestones:
- we extended our Team Craft Ears and got a bigger office

- our Genesis series made us proud with its success

- and for the first (and definitely not the last) time we were able to attend Audio Video Show in Warsaw!

And that's only the beginning!

To celebrate - we want you, who made this possible, to have a piece of our birthday cake!

4x4 deals just for you!

For the next 4 days you get -14% off all our products!

From 19th till 22nd - free designs!

From 23rd till 26th - AURUM in a special price!

And to finish it all off - from 27th till 2nd od March - our Craft FOUR with a 14% discount + a free design!
Thank you everyone, many years to come!

@nioh
We do have UIEMs in the offer I think you would love the Genesis series. It's our fun, and musical series. They still deliver excellent resolution, and sound staging, but the tuning is more relaxed, and forgiving. Argentum, and Aurum fit your description the best

Congrats! Happy Aurum user here.

Yes mainly the ZX507, balanced out high gain.

The EU version? Or the normal one?

The EU version? Or the normal one?

Normal one, I actually have the WM1AM2 but somehow prefer the ZX507 on most days

The convenience of a smaller one, or..?
Shame that EU models were hampered so hard. Sony is an icon in the audio world.

The convenience of a smaller one - Definitely, the aesthetics and the smaller footprint really makes it more enjoyable.

But it's also on SQ somehow............I found the ZX507 more neutral even with the DSP all on............the new WM1 (both AM2 and ZM2) sounds a tad too warm, too euphonic to me even if played direct. Still incredibly good sounding and less coloured than the likes of AK etc. but when all things add up the ZX507 is a winner.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Certainly, more expensive is not always better. We think that it is always about the synergy between the gear. How long have you been searching for your end player?
