it seems share sound signature of Ier-z1r and/or Trio. I feel safe with my wallet now.

Wouldn't be a bad thing if it fell between the Nio/Trio signature... Can't imagine getting much better than that for what I listen to. By falling between I mean perfecting both and combining the signatures. EE knows what they are doing. Jack wouldn't have been all swagged out in his interview with Jude if he wasn't extremely confident of the end result they achieved. That AND they dropped an IEM no one saw coming in which is probably going to garner a larger portion of the market at the price point. When female vocals are done right, it's hard to ignore.

Wellp.

Side note, I'll be demoing Odin soon as local rep gets stock thankfully. See how the cable stacks up. I'm not a fan of 2.5mm but if there's a good adapter anyone can recommend to 4.4mm maybe it won't be too much of a detractor for me. Is Empire releasing a adapter specifically for Odin cable or just one they have already?

Attached are some pretty stout adapters we had PW manufacturer for us. We've had questionable adapters from a few other manufacturers where they cut in and out but these have held up with my day to day abuse for the past year.

So looks like most USA dealers are saying Sept shipping for the Odin? I suppose my impulse buy here is met with some resistance now, ha

Trying our best to fulfill orders in full within these next few weeks. Dealers could potentially ship sooner if we did.

Odin - Headfonia Review

Good review. I like the fact it comes with a PW 1960s 2w.

There's a video mentioned on earlier pages, but where can I find it?

was reading the headfonia review - one thing stood out to me the most was driver flex

i've never actually experienced this before - is it a normal thing in EE iems? (ie. legend x, nemesis, valkryie, bravado)

The weapon need to reload that’s the flex just a joke .. it appears with many DD iems or hybrids

Yes, Nemesis has that, a few crackle pops every time you insert them. Quite disconcerting first time you hear it, but nothing to worry about as that's normal with the design.

Am I alone in saying that when I insert my legend x very slowly as to avoid the pops, I enjoy the sound much more when compared to inserting quickly?

Since the shell is vented, I’m surprised there is driver flex.

 

[rantng]

I believe EE has a lifetime warranty for the W9 drivers if they are ever damaged due to driver flex so no worries there. If you’ve never experienced driver flex it can be a little disconcerting, but this is normal behavior for dynamic drivers.

i find driver flex with thinner diaphragms usually, thicker no problem

idk about venting either, cause dunu luna has driver flex from reviewers, and that is supremely well made iem

but ya driver flex should be harmless for well built iem

What do you hear for a difference?
