Leaves us only with the question, what kind of driver is inside. Same question i still have of that "magic" MG4+ and MG5PRO drivers from Future Sonics.

It is an armature, not sure fio the same as the Image, it is indeed a little bigger, but not that that big neither (maybe an extra millimeter or so)...it is slightly bigger in diameter, honestly I do not think they can fit two drivers in that space, things have shrink a lot overtime, but not that much...

Neutrality, accuracy? OK, just ask yourself first: Do you certainly know how the recording is supposed to sound? Sorry, but for me euphony is all about!!! Please do yourself a favor, stop listening your gear, and enjoy the music instead!!!
