Bass monsters. The Hyla CE-5 is the top of its class with a tight bass response and well-extended sub-bass. It is a hybrid-IEM, consisting of 1 Dynamic Driver, 2 BA's, and 1 Ceramic driver. Crisp, energetic, and slightly v-shaped.

Hyla Audio was established by parent company Cyras Co. (owners of sister brand Oriolus) in Japan. They are well known for exceptional craft, and bold experimentation with sound signatures.

The construction of the IEM is solid, minimal, and tasteful with its violet hues. The shell itself is made of German imported resin, and the structural design is made using a 3D process, which is normally reserved for jewelry design.

This particular IEM comes in all its original packaging, which includes:

• Hyla IEMs + cable
• Van Nuys soft pouch for portable storage
• Silicone and foam tips along with cleaning tool
• Original receipt

All of this comes in a premium appearance, laid inside premium packaging lined with soft black cloth.

Only 200 of the Hyla CE-5 were ever produced, making this an extremely rare find.
