The Jialai Carat. Recently got a set. Its a bright one just to give a heads up. Has lots of upper mids and trebles related to that tuning. It could use about 5dbs less upper mid emphasis imo. Bass is the best part of it but the sound tuning is fairly a steep V. Just a heads up. I know I posted that deal but thats if you like that coloration.
Second that. It sounds good out of a strong amp and some brain burn in. An interesting different choice, but not head and shoulder ahead of the competition. If one wants to understand the “fake” resolution, get this one, listen to a sparse song to appreciate its perceived detail, and then listen to a complex orchestral or electronic music and see the “real” resolution.

That graph looks more like seismic activity along the San Andreas Fault than a proper headphone frequency curve. Yikes.
To be fair, if you slap a big price tag on it, put a boutique name on it, you will see people going on and on about how this IEMs is unique and you need to have taste for it, how it stands against the “sheep cult” of Harman-ish, how it makes they feel so emotional that tears coming out from all cavities.

I don't mind straying from Harman. But hells bells, that looks more like an old Spirograph than a slight deviation. :)

Nice mid and bass 👍. Is it single or dual DD? How the heck did they manage to force a DD to conform to that curve?

The treble is just sad, though

You are so CORRECT! LOL This is the excuse I observe with so many wonky graphed TOTL's. It's unique. It takes time to fall in love with it. It goes against the grain and that makes it good. For all that money....

don’t be hateful. Your graphs are not correct. You are just saying that because you listen to the graph not the IEM
