Elysian Acoustics is known for producing high-quality multi-BA IEMs, and it’s good to see they are continuing to innovate and improve their products. With the six high-performance balanced armature drivers on each side and the improved 2nd gen crossover board, the Elysian DIVA 2023 is here. It is likely to provide even better sound quality, clarity, and balance than its predecessor. The stainless-steel nozzle and improved internal wiring are also likely to contribute to a better build quality and durability of the IEMs. Overall, this seems like a promising update for anyone looking for high-quality multi-BA IEMs.

Elysian DIVA 2023 features six carefully chosen and professionally adjusted balanced armature drivers on each side. The use of a four-way frequency crossover with professional tuning adjustments is also impressive, as it should allow for a more precise and accurate reproduction of the audio signal. The resulting sound quality should be excellent, with crisp and wide sound, expansive soundstage, and lovely vocals. The improved 2nd generation crossover should also ensure that each driver unit is utilized to its full potential, resulting in a top-quality performance with lower distortion and a clearer background.

It includes a 3-way rotating tuning switch that allows users to control the level of bass according to their preference. This should give users more flexibility and control over the sound profile of the IEMs, making it a good option for a wide range of music genres and listening preferences. Elysian has redesigned the internal arrangement of the DIVA 2023 with better and upgraded wiring. The pair now features high-quality UPOCC Copper and Silver-Litz material.

DIVA 2023 features exquisitely beautiful ear shells. The Pair has beautiful glittery patterns on the face panels. Elysian made great pair available in three different colors Blue, Black, and Red. Each Pair has an ergonomic design and comfortable fit. DIVA 2023 is crafted to bring an impressive listening experience with exceptional vocal clarity. You can pre-order the Elysian Acoustics DIVA 2023 for just 1599$ (Hifigo) through official retailers.

The new Diva 2023 model comes with an Effect Audio Ares S cable.

I didn’t have a chance to hear the original version of Diva thus not sure about what has changed, but their ’23 version had a rather impressive tuning with color-coded rotary switch (3 positions) to adjust the quantity of sub-bass and mid-bass. With either switch positions, the mids were very transparent and detailed, very clean with a slight forward presentation of a typical 2k-4k pinna gain region. And the same with the treble, being clean, extended, and very detailed while remaining almost the same as you rotate the switch. The soundstage was very spacious, expanded. With switches, you get a baseline “red” with a fast articulate neutral bass, “white” with a boosted sub-bass rumble, and “blue” with a boosted sub-bass and mid-bass. As much as I like more weight in sub-bass and stronger impact in mid-bass, I actually preferred Diva tuning with its neutral “red” setting that brought up more focus to mids and treble. Sub-bass boost of “white” added a nice analog rumble, but I went back to switch it off to enjoy the clean tight bass of the neutral setting.

Hello everyone. I'm opening a new topic on Elysian Diva 2023. We share our impressions, opinions, and reviews. Perhaps someone has already listened, filmed the frequency response

There's a few reviews that have been out for a while. Here's a few examples:

And Crinacle also has them graphed. https://crinacle.com/graphs/iems/elysian-diva/

Friend this is the 1st old version. And now a new version of 2023 has been released. It is updated not bad. Read the information above in the topic. And the graphed should be updated.

 

[Zmey69]

Yes! There are new EA Diva 23 graphed. As a result, there are changes! It's just not clear with what bass tuning they were made

Most likely, this is an average bass mode. White color. I like. They have raised the range of 8k.

Ps: + comparison vs monarch mk2.

Put a pre-order in for the Lapis Blue variant. My first Elysian Acoustics set. Quite hyped!

i can't find nozzle diameter and shell dimensions of the Elysian Diva. Can anyone confirm if nozzle diameter is less than 6mm? regarding shell size, I heard the Diva's shell is also pretty big but not sure how big it is.

It's a pretty big IEM, and the nozzle is pretty big. But there's something about the shape of it that makes it surprisingly comfortable despite both of these facts.

I echo what Gromu said. The nozzles and shells are large, but it's a lightweight and ergonomic IEM. Assuming you can fit the nozzles, the fit is surprisingly comfortable.

As an anti-example, the Symphonium Helios also has large nozzles and shells, but it's heavy and not ergonomic making it a more contentious fit.

does the nozzle insert deep? i would assume i want a shallow fit but who knows, if it's as ergonomic as it sounds.

It's not really that deep. I don't do well with deep inserts.

I have had bad luck with IEMs like the Moondrop blessing 2 dusk, Variations, and the Monarch MKII, but the Diva is fine for me.

 

[FOUNDERZERO]

Anyone know the nozzle diameter size? Curious as to which tips would fit best.

I don’t know the exact diameter, I’ll try to measure it tomorrow. I typically tip-roll a lot but the included SpinFits worked really well for me.

 

[FOUNDERZERO]

Arrived a day early!

Arrived a day early!

Hope you like them! They’re one of my favorite pairs.
