@vwinter
: Thanks for your review.  Very helpful and well-written!  Looking forward to getting my Finders in January (and the Explorer in April).

Thanks! Though "review" is a little generous :xf_eek:

Would have definitely missed this.
Nice read!

Looks like they changed the colors of the filters from the review sample (white x black).

We should have a section in the first post for excerpts of impressions/reviews of the filter portion of unboxing notes. I lol'ed when I read yours.

@Gilly87:
 
My email account associated with international Finder X1 order (Pledge ID: 14161686) was deleted.
 
I have a new email now but how to communicate it to you to notify me on dispatch and delivery?

I just spent a while comparing these from a Mojo to my IE 800s. There's not much in it - they're very close and any differences are more down to taste than better or worse. The 800s are a bit smoother, the X1s a bit more detailed and airy (black reference filters). They're both really good and have that great dynamic driver coherence. And these are at least as well built and definitely fit better. At the price this is a home run.

Yes, they seem to get better and better with each listen.  Neutral and detailed with a tightly controlled bump from the mid-bass on down.  They easily compare with the best IEM's at 300 or more.  Some feel the top end is a little hot, bit I don't find it that way.  They don't roll off at the top like many IEM's.  High hat cymbals and shakers cone through where other phones just miss them completely.  It's a cliche, but I'm hearing things in my music I simply never heard before, even with some very respected IEM's and full  sized cans.  These are a home run, or maybe a grand slam.

HI @Gilly87 , just checking when I should be expecting my Finders - I went for the "Early Finder" option but only did so on the 10th December. Does that mean mine have already shipped or that they'll ship for delivery in January? Am fine either way, just wanted to know whether to expect them soon or prepare myself to wait a but longer!
