Custom Art FIBAE 7 announcement & impressions thread
Using stock tips is really unfair for the FIBAE7 Unlimited, I really don't hear the same things with the Sedna or Canal Work tips- Rollk2

CustomArt FIBAE Impressions Thread
Spent few days only with the FIBAE3X3... definitely a bright and bass light IEM comparing to my other IEMs. But, actually, if I really love the way F7u are tuned, I'm completely mesmerised by F3x3 way of sounding. It lacks surely a bit of raw bass power, but that's so clean! I don't say here...- Rollk2

F7U tuning is so enjoyable on acoustic rock and so many other genres. Last time I enjoyed one of your tuning like this was with the Music One. Something like 10 years ago. Kind of fun because both tunings are so different.- Rollk2

F7U won, I really appreciate the smooth sound signature: a touch of rumble, impactful mid bass, melodious high mids and sparkling trebles. F3x3 are way more forward and reference!- Rollk2

Alambic Ears - Impressions thread - Mentawai, Mavericks, Mundaka, Noosa
I've owned so many IEM... but each minute spent with these Mentawaï is a demonstration of what is a perfect all-rounder for me. It handles every genres (from old crappy dub to excellent jazz records, I didn't listen to classical music though) and has a so well balanced bass quantity and attack...- Rollk2

My new Mentawaï are clearly growing in me! Special version: - treble tweak as for others - new filtering design as mentioned by @ian91 - BA transducer for low-end Everything is more consistent and precise. It sounds now like a unison, bass and other frequencies are way more integrated in...- Rollk2

The FIBAE3X3 is still one or my favorite IEM with its neutral approach and high level of technicalities! @piotrus-g , I'm really glad and interested by the FIBAE7U! Is the upgrade possible?- Rollk2

I'm using the Mentawaï with a simple Ifi Go Blu and it works great. I really like Aldo's tuning, a bit dark with top notch extension. On indie rock like Angus & Julia Stone that's as good as on good old electronic music like Prodigy. What characterises most the Mentawaï is probably that big open...- Rollk2

Raw bass power is exquisite with great rumble. Sub bass impact is mind blowing, violent, like never I've heard that... and I'm a basshead. Mid-bass are present but not so much, low impact is really really low and not based on low-mids/mid-bass. I'm glad voices are put upfront of the stage...- Rollk2

Ultra explosive custom IEM I've had VE8, SE5 Ultimate, EM10, FIBAE7 and so many other CIEMs... none of them were as brutal, intense as the Mentawaï. I have read the Trailli were distant and laid back, the Mentawaï's soundstage is direct in your face. The architecture of the Mentawaï is a 5 ways...- Rollk2
