Poly gets the best sound out of mojo, but poly is a half baked product right now, you should wait

Thanks for the warning. I would be very happy with your current rig minus the fiddling with the Poly. I wouldn't feel the need to upgrade anything.

Whoops, jumped the gun on the happy birthday @Ethan Groover. My mac's time zone is set to HKT (UTC +8) so sometimes don't dial back the time... Cheers..

I always thought this was crabdog

Yeah, when I read about it my mind just went wild with possibilities.

If one of them can do a 5DD IEM, what are the chances of others will be able to do it as well I wonder...

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I haven't even heard the BAMDAS5. It could just be madness, yet.

I for one trust Jack and Dean to use the appropriate number of number and type of drivers to achieve the sound they are aiming for.

Maybe I missed it, did anyone post the Freq graphs comparing the Phantom and the SE5U?

I don't have the urge to upgrade a thing.... Well... Maybe upgrade thr allotted time iIhave daily with it. Haha

Hearing about the new line not being midforward with more clarity/resolution, makes me more than content with Zeus

Happy Birthday tomorrow Ethan!!!!

Dan, have you seen the new faceplate designs that Catherine came up with? I got one as I couldn't resist. Getting my wife one of them just because of the cool looks. lol. I have a Mojo that I'm about to post for sale. I was going to get teh Poly and just didn't like what they came up with. Got the ak380cu and am not looking back.

As an update to your initial post, I did manage to find a video showing some of Empire’s new faceplate designs on ellementhailand’s Instagram page. Monochrome, Graffiti, Circuit Board and Skulls are particularly interesting.

Hmm, you have a point there.

Yeah, let's see how EE team will manage with their dynamic drivers.

Not a great pic but you can clearly see the graffiti design.

All those look amazing as heck...damn...

Anyone knows the price for the vantage?

$1399 USD is the price quoted a few pages back. I haven't seen anyone correct it so I assume it's accurate!

looks like Phantom is kinda sidegrade to XIV (with more bass) and Legend X is kinda sidegrade to R (with way more bass)

since i already have XR (which let's not forget is XIV and R together in one shell) i can not justify spending an extra 4K for Phantom/Legend (as great as they seem)

so like you , i am still 100% happy with Zeus XR (and also 4K short f getting PH/LX)
