[April Fool's Prank] Vsonic GR08 - Dynamic/Dual BA Hybrid. Exceeding Perfection?

[eke2k6]

I recently received an unexpected email from a Vsonic rep who expressed his liking for my review of the GR07. He offered to send me a sample of the as-yet unreleased GR08, and of course I had to say yes. 
 
 

 
It's too soon for impressions, but these are probably the best set of audio reproducers, head/earphone or not, that have ever graced these undeserving ears.
 
More to come.

Nice. Looking forward to your thoughts if this is real.

Awesome!  But the title is misleading, there's no review yet.
 
Really looking forward to this though!  Did he say when you'd get it?

 

[eke2k6]

I already have them. I plan for this review to be a progression. I'll update with more thoughts as I listen more, then I'll condense everything.

I am SO glad the review has yet to crystalize in your brain. Maybe guys like ie2han were smart to leave this place, I don't really need to tempted by anything else :l

So you received them today 

 

[eke2k6]

Nope. I got them on Thurs, but I've had exams from hell that didn't allow me any quality time...

You know it's April 1st when...

That makes sense, they probably also need to burn-in for around 2000 hours to reach their full potential..

No they don't really have any glaring faults to warrant extra burn-in

mind posting some pictures?
I still feel like this has something to do with April 1st...............but I am hoping the opposite.

 

[eke2k6]

Well I was going to wait until the actual review, but here is a picture of the box. You'll have to wait for the review to see the actual iem.
