The Raven's outlook really not attractive as Odin and Odyssey.

Btw when will Empire Ears know the way to make a IEM with metal or other materials.

Raven is metal FP.

Raven is metal FP.

That'll be great. Because I have really bad experience with their acrylic shells on my Odin and my Odyssey.

That's intense, did you reach out to EE for repair ?

Sure.
The left side broke, other than remake shell of left side, they also charge me Cleaning, Relacquer, Retube, New resin for right side....,,

Cost much expensive than Vision ears and noble audio.....

The worst is my iem sound volume huge difference of both side after service, i need to send them back again.

I've got my Odin dialed in finally. Sticking with the Stormbreaker since I like treble. The 1960 smoothed things off pleasantly, but I like sparkle. Azla Sedna tips, the black ones. And my AK2000T set to no tube, instead of my AK1000.

It's like a ballsier Zeus. I'm keeping the 1960 on that one, and use the Hybrid or full Tube to give it a bit more punch.

The Odin delivers plenty of bass without ONLY delivering bass. Try The Beatles Abbey Road Come Together is you want to hear bass in a rock track.

i loved everything about odin; comfort, bass, treble extension (pairs really good with centurion cable by the way) except the too hot upper mids. after listening to traillii or mentors it started to feel too unnatural. so i’m regretfully selling them.

Hard to say. I personally prefer Raven to Odyssey for the treble transparency and extension alone, but there are a few other subtle differences elsewhere. I cant drop a deep dive yet but when I can, I will.

Agree with this conclusion. However, this is hearing a pre-production Raven at show floor conditions (CanJam Singapore). I would upgrade to Raven if I could sell Odyssey but for me the difference are close. You are talking about single-digit percentages here. I do like the Odyssey as a total package (including the faceplates) and so it would be a hard decision to part with them. Decisions!

Raven has competition

Raven has competition

If VE ended up tuning the X based off the Red prototype, I think it’s more apt to say that the Raven has a companion. X (if Red) + Raven would be my ideal endgame setup.

Not competition - companion. It's red!

+ the huge shell size of the Raven might be a factor in deciding too.
