The Hugo2 is much richer and full sounding that Hugo 1 so it should sound sublime :)

We're using the same setup to the tee haha. Actually, I recently swapped out AMP11 in favor of AMP12W, but still very similar I think we have similar tastes! Considering you picked up my Caldera too :)

Great review as always and incredible looking pics. Anni23 is definitely a looker! Glad you appreciated your time with this IEM. I know it may not have been up your tuning alley, but figured you'd still be able to enjoy :beerchug:

That’s exactly the point I was making :) There are many more outliers beyond the objective measurement at play, that could yield a better experience with a different calibrated vehicle/ IEM. Like you mention, the suspension, the brakes, are all very crucial secondary components (think eartip...

Good lord, too much science up in here! I jest… but really I think there’s a couple factors people don’t talk about which breaks down critical analysis to a very efficient degree. 1. Volume-dependent HRTF I hate that this is a thing, but it’s probably the biggest contributing factor to...

Looking to downsize the audio collection, so parting with this mint condition VEX. Item is spotless, accessories unused and complete, leather pouch even smells new and rich. Photos and fresh measurements attached. Free to answer any questions you may have, thanks! :)

I think it's fairly easy to hear a marked improvement in fidelity going from a Simgot EA1000 to kilobuck IEM's. Not all, but some picks out there are well above the 10% improvement range. Having heard the Storm, I can say without question any single person who does a blind A/B would come away...

The interesting thing about the Tia treble is that based on people's high frequencies hearing ability or loss, the timbral qualities change very much from one person to another Also that the crazy Tia peak being in a frequency range that does not render much actual instrument information, it...

Some little birdie said W2022 will be there. The birdie's name is Pat :beerchug:

Right, Volur is an interesting set because it does some things exceedingly well, and then other marks are missed and just so unfortunate because it could have been a homerun. I see it as having a bit of an identity criss between being a monitor first and foremost & being a listening enjoyment...

I kind of know why there's an influx of Anni sales as of late. I know of 2 specific sets being listed in budgeting for the upcoming Dio, although timing is really up in the air 1 user impulse bought and moved on feeling uncomfortable about the price premium over Monarch MK2 Another one I...

Very neat! Headband design origins to the current Hi-Fi line-up :) How does it sound?

Do you have a link to this discussion? I would be curious to check it out :relaxed:
