Yes, it was not my intention to say that Blacks are mid-recessed, they definitely aren't, but in my experience with pros, vocalists need more 2-3kHz peak - between 3-5dB more than what Blacks offer.Interestingly, compared to the large sea of IEMs I tested to date, I'd describe FIBAE Black as laid back and relaxing, but the midrange is still fairly forward to me, or at least it is at balanced levels. To say the least, they clearly don't have a recessed midrange
My first impressions coming soon to this thread!!
Anyone going to be there that wants to spy out the Custom Art booth for the rest of us? Off the cuff, I was looking at CA's Instagram and saw this post about Can Jam. I know I shoudn't be reading too much into "we have some surprises" and "Experience the full FIBAE line," but that's not how hype works, right?
Also, I am slowly trying to convince my church's band leader to try something CA. He's a lead guitarist (electric and acoustic) and vocalist but he says he wants bass kick as well. Fibae 2, maybe? He's trying to keep the budget down, so I don't know if Fibae 4 would be a bridge too far.
).FIBAE 2 would be the direction I would go. Also, the ME is great for his liking.Off the cuff, I was looking at CA's Instagram and saw this post about Can Jam.

The word "giveaway" is an instant +15 beats per second to the heartrate, that's for sure but certainly not on the level of something like "surprise! new models!". I'm sure you'd be more interested in the AMA if you hadn't JUST interviewed Piotr. (I'm assuming that's who the AMA is with? I'm not familiar with Music Sanctuary, are they a local company?) It'd be nice to know how the process for developing their 3D printing capabilities beyond black acrylic is coming. Hopefully that's something that has been coming along. Of course, with Fibae Black orders still getting churned out, I imagine they haven't had a lot of machine time to experiment. But, if my Fibae Black order mysteriously comes out in some other color, I'll be surprised but not unpleasantly soI will, but I'm fairly certain nothing new's gonna be there. By surprises, Piotr probably means the AMA and giveaway that Music Sanctuary have since announced. But, I'd also love to be proven wrong.

Huh, I wonder why that was... it's almost like a bunch of IEM reviewers were given some blind samples and gave such glowing reviews that people who hadn't ever spent so much money in one place suddenly flung their wallets at Piotr <me: looks at spot on table where wallet used to be, glares at Deezel, sighs, checks email again for the 40th time today to see if email from Custom Art came in [even though I know it's 5am in Warsaw and a bunch of the team is probably in Singapore]>
I will, but I'm fairly certain nothing new's gonna be there. By surprises, Piotr probably means the AMA and giveaway that Music Sanctuary have since announced. But, I'd also love to be proven wrong.
