Elysian Annihilator 2023
It is certainly a very exciting IEM to listen to! I’ve still yet to hear the Subtonic Storm, but these certainly are the most resolving IEMs on the top end I’ve heard, without a bit of graininess or sharpness. I really am enjoying their timbre overall.- Aetherhole

Definitely a subjective hobby. I don’t hear average BA bass or average bass with the Anni. It more textured and tactile than many IEMs I’ve heard. It’s not the be-all-end-all, but to me, it’s still quite good.- Aetherhole

To my ears, the Anni 23 is less peaky and sharp sounding than the Volur or my A12t, or any other 64A IEM with the Tia driver for treble.- Aetherhole

I’m in San Diego for another couple months, so if it happens, I’d love to try to join! After that I will be back in OC, which admittedly isn’t terribly far either…- Aetherhole

@OhmsClaw thank you for reading the review! I love this community and the sharing of new music discoveries. Glad I could contribute back. Yeah, Geoff’s cover is bass intensive and on some IEMs, it is jaw dropping at the low frequency pressure you get from it!- Aetherhole

@smodtactical I dare not take this thing apart. I am saavy, but I am not that adventurous! I’ll leave that to someone else a little bit braver than me!- Aetherhole

@RONJA MESCO its true, the external box is another beautiful box in the same style! That is tucked underneath the equipment rack, hidden, unfortunately, so it was not able to be photographed easily.- Aetherhole

ZMF Atrium - new open-back co-flagship
If I wasn’t already so enamored by the Enoki Atrium I have, I would have LOVED one or two of the Atrium offerings you had today. Simply gorgeous work, Zach!- Aetherhole

Lol! Fair enough. okay back to topic-ish… been listening to the Annihilator 23 a crap ton. Enjoying the IEM immensely. Still waiting to be able to use the Fusion 1 cable I got. Stupidly didn’t think about the fact that the Anni use Pentaconn connectors. So waiting on my order for...- Aetherhole

Off topic: Stupid-grinning because the first thing I see when I came to the home page was my review of the WA23! Off-off-topic… is there actually such thing as off-topic in the WC thread??- Aetherhole

@Leto Dal I’m guessing that it’s due to the single-ended design of this amp, versus the Envy and WA33 being fully balanced, maybe?- Aetherhole
