Hi.


Coming from earbuds, Chi-fi in-ear monitors and mid-fi not so long ago, then Bravado (MK1), some flagship iems in between, and to Legend X four months ago, the Legend X has the best of both worlds in comfort/fit and a balanced dynamic/fun sound signature with great technicalities.

Legend X also scales and responds well pairing with another cable (of hybrid metal or copper), which makes a fun listening experience to hear and feel more of its character and qualities.

LXSE!

Catch, release and catch again! My IEM pattern. Another IEM I purchased, then sold to an audio friend, and then due to missing them so much I bought the same ones back.

That upper mid tuning bump turns the LX from L shaped to W shaped. With the double DD not as present but still very present!! Such a special IEM!

I still love your two-tone wings the best

I like these too! Nicer than mine where one of them has the wording. Tbh, I really like LXSE, and I find them more enjoyable than Thummim. I find the latter to be fatiguing after a while at the moment (maybe needs more burn in), or maybe I’m just too sensitive to certain timbres.

Personally, I'd rank them in this order:

But I do still love the double wings.

I’m a sucker for wood so really likes the limited edition release from a few years ago…

But I do still love the double golden wings.

Speaking personally, I don't love the logo of the newest release - reminds me of the Louis Vuitton logo.
Just my personal preference.
My SEs are similar to @SLC1966 , except the wings are both the same color.

That looks fantastic. EE really does a good job with beautiful design and fit.

Ooh! Is that an SE or a limited edition OG LX? If it's the latter, I want!

I believe wood-based LX designs were quite common in Asia until recently. This site sold quite a few in the past (none available now.)

I had a pair of these was my first LX

Those are gorgeous. Probably should have kept them.

I pretty much never care for the wood aesthetic, for IEMs at least. ^^those look great though

Yeah, I regret selling them but I had just bought the LXSE and couldn’t justify owning both at the time

I'm surprised 'justify' is in your vocabulary...
