Im in the same bucket. I own the Erlkonig Blacks. How could a successor start at such a lower price point?

Mm..ignore the price tags and audition the new king (?) preferably with the erlkonig on hand.

Or you could sell the Erlkonig and 'upgrade' to the PHonix without topping up any money. Sounds like a decent deal, considering…

Is it just me? I prefer the Erlkönig`s look so much more over the Phönix!

Price is irrelevant, the EARLKöNIG was a special edition, the PHöNIX will now make that tuning available to more enthusiasts, I applaud the team at VE for not falling into trap of ever increased pricing.

Are you saying that Phönix sounds identical as Erlkönig ?

 

[Wildcatsare1]

My understanding is it's tuned to match setting number 2, I won't know for sure until I get my review samples. With that said, I trust Marcel’s ears and tuning skills.

 

[magicguy]

Wait and see.
I trust too in Vision Ears skills.

But if the tuning is similar to Erlkonig, then Erlkonig are not anymore a limited edition.

I can’t wait to read your feedback on it.

erk was limited E as in you cant get them anymore.

i am excited about the ext. that driver setup might be amazing.

I could be wrong but I don't recall the silver Erlkonig ever being marketed as a limited product. My understanding is that VE discontinued the Erlkonig, that's all.

Perhaps, I missed the Erky launch, that was before I moved over to only IEMs.

@Vision Ears Still awaiting more details/impressions. It’s been 9 days since any significant discussion here; that’s way too long for flagship releases.

 

[Wildcatsare1]

Great news for AudioTiers Members, we will have.tour sets of both of Vision Ears latest art available for tour, I'm hoping to have the sign up set up as soon as we confirm arrival dates, get psyched, I know I am!
