The discovery thread!

These just arrived, had ordered them months ago, another Indiegogo crowdfunding project. The twist here is that they come with a kind of putty that you heat, mold, and create your own version of a custom iem, perfect seal in theory. Threw them on out of the box, not bad sounding, mid centric, wide stage, decent detail, maybe a bit harsh. Compared a bit to the burned in Narmoo, Narmoo sounds smoother, richer, more open (listening to "All For Nothing", by the Replacements, some great tracks on this thing, "Bastards of Young", "Alex Chilton", and "Can't Hardly Wait" got most play for this). Got to throw them on for burn in. The material that seals the headphones is available separate from the iem's, and I got some extra, so I will try them on some other iem's as well. Seems like a good idea, see how it plays out...

Was hoping someone talked me out of it.

Are any of u guys aurisonics fans?...asg2 would be perfect for me if it had more sub bass. Hoping the upgraded 2.5 or 3.0 (who knows) will remedy it. Lookin forward to rockets impressions also.

 
 
I love the asg2, and I own the AS-2. I haven't heard the 2.5 yet, but I trust Dale and his magic in creating a sonically appealing earphone.

Well, the Tenore I will hear, but will not buy. That's one hype I will not buy into. The Doppio is plugged into my Schitt DAC and amp, and the sound almost moves me to tear up thinking about how glorious it is for what I paid for it. The Doppio is my universal neutral BA champ without a doubt.

I think Doppios kinda takes a while for them to fully develop and they do seem to take advantage of better sources more than previously thought. Seems like we are just now really getting to know their true ability. Spacious sounding low impedance out sources excel with the Doppios. They sound sublime with the Geek Out...

I was ready to sell the Doppio's but I listened to them with the geek and got hooked. Really no other BA that sounds like it. Can't believe the Tenore's are blowing up a year after we got into them. Maybe people should pay attention to the discovery thread more.

shotgunshane preferred the Tenore much more than the Doppio, he felt the Doppio was too dark and lacked the range. No matter how good it is, 2 BAs isn't enough to cover the spectrum imo.

Some of us are a bit slower than the others.

This thread mostly recommends basshead IEMs IMO and give it a month, the IEM is forgotten for a new one.
