Some also mention SATOLEX Tubomi DH298-A1Bk, also a giant killer from Japan. Waiting for the impressions of these two.
I have the Sora. Yes it is dirt cheap and yes it sounds rather phenomenal, sharing my eartime with the almighty 64 U18 and my long-serving MH335DWSR lately. Very balanced and coherent with outrageous highs extension that's also smooth without too many peaks, kinda polite in the bass with average extension down low. Resolution in the level of mid-tier iems.
Giant killer is a term I don't like, and price is not a standard I'd like to use to judge things. I think no one would be disappointed with its SQ regardless of price. Taking in consideration also the techniques employed and the price of products with similar designs (but of lower performance level) as well as its pure Japanese heritage (only assembly is done in China) it would be a steal even at 5 to 6 times its price.
How come there are almost no reviews of it online?

And that's coming from someone who owns the $3,000 U18 Tzar!? :O
When you say the Sora's resolution is "in the level of mid-tier IEMs", what's mid-tier for you?
Thanks
for 4k + yen they are substantially cheaper on amazon.jp as compared to amazon.com.. reviews on amazon.jp were talking abt built quality and durability though but all praise the sound quality.. interesting..
