Haha nothing actually. Tomahawk easily the best sounding of anything besides customs that I ever auditioned recently. It's just I'm pretty astonished by what earbud can offer. It open my eyes to how good sound it produces for small price. It made me wonder if I'm missing something up in the line.
But if theres anything I would complain is the fit. But I can live with it. Minor pain in ear after 2-3 hour is actually good measure that I shouldn't be listening for too long anyway.
There's also news that Cygnus might not always be available since they're limited NOS driver. I should grab one just for the sake of it.
My current iem is Soundmagic e80 and even that is brighter and sibilant prone Hawks just right to my ear. Perhaps I wish hawks mid could be a little bit sweeter? I have a hunch that hawks very scalable with source upgrade. I will look into auditioning a couple of dap in a few weeks
BTW Cygnus are bit tame in the upper department?
The Cygnus' sound signature will be "duller" when compared to the Tomahawks. Soundstaging is also slightly less (in terms of width). Details on the other hand, Cygnus will win hands down (to me at least). I find the Mids of the Cygnus to be more natural as well.
