Hahahah nice first listening feeling. I remember that too. :)

Congrats! They look pretty.

Lol, it’s like walking into a nightclub and standing right next to a speaker.

Initial impression - These are super fun sounding. The treble is a little dark compared to what I’m used to but it’s very detailed. It’s amazing how detailed and separated everything sounds with that epic bass. Impressive!

@Rockwell75 calls them the "basshead audiophile's" IEMs....the bass is amazing, but the best part (IMO) is the COMBO of best-in-class bass AND highly capable across the entire FR. I think I've said before I can have my cake (bass) and eat it, too (rest of FR). Soundstage is amazing, too, although not quite as impressive as the Solaris IMO.
Now, I will be curious to hear your impressions of the LX vs the LX SE :)

I’d have to completely agree with both you and @Rockwell75 it’s ticking all the boxes so far :)

Hopefully the SE will arrive next week :)

Guys, when did LX SE came out and did it compeltely replace the older model? Just wondering which one will i get lol

The Legend X SE was an Asia exclusive and was not offered to western markets (as far as I'm aware). The original Legend X has had the same signature all along while the Legend X SE has a slightly boosted mid and high frequencies I believe.

Do we know how much of a premium it was vs the LX, and how "limited" it was?
