I'd like to see an improved version of the Andro!
I've been listening to the Andromeda on a 2-week loan and my impressions are quite positive. I like it better than the Jupiters (which were very good as well), with the Andros being cleaner, less warm in the lower mids.
I like the overall balance, love the detail and clarity, pretty good timbre and coherence for an armature iem, too. Subbass extension is passable, could be better for use during commute, but I like that the midbass isn't overly boosted in realtion to the subbass. The treble extends well for me, up to and past 16k, which is just peachy.
On a slight negative, there is a hint of sibilance and harshness on the volume and recording and ears I'm using
not bad at all but it's there. I'm only noting what I'm hearing in case someone is sensitive to treble, in which case I would avoid the Amdro, but most people won't have an issue with 95%+ of their recordings, I would guess.
These are very sensitive iems. With my apex glacier I do get a slightly fuller sound with more bass (welcome) than my ipod, but both are fine and lower on the volume scale. And there's some hiss, I should note, that's another red flag for some, depending on gear, etc.
The housing can be a little sharp, so I'm glad that it's being smoothed in future Andromedaa, I've heard. Also, the paint is just beginning to wear away already, not good, but doesn't affect the sound, of course.
Overall, these are really top-tier, glad to hear them.
