Hopefully not... I bet big on Dream haha.
+1 (also in my top 5)

I've auditioned the standard (non truth cable) Dita Answer twice and already liked that one.
As all iems in this shootout are judged based on their stock cables, I thought the Dream might have an extra advantage there :thinking:

You can keep the Dream, but something's abnormal with Warbler.

However we are in the participation trophy generation :unamused:

Don't count them out yet. They aren't, after all, the generation who came up with the participation trophy. That would be their parents. Imagine the resentment over being seen as to NEED such consolation. When they hit adolescent rebellion, whose to say what they're do.

Dude...do you always have to be my voice of reason, my cold splash of water on my face?

I considered the Dream and the Warbler Prelude to be the 2 dark(est) horses in my top 5 gamble prediction.
Oh, and isn't abnormal just normal in an abnormal world? :wink:

Waiting in suspense for the upcoming #12 in the meantime...

I've listened to all of these iems and they all suck, they should all be last ex æquo.
Well, maybe in Nic's universe one iem just sucked a little less than the other :wink:
