Congratulations! What color did you get from Thomas?
The gold glossy launch edition.

Does someone tried Raven with games? How is the experience?
I don't think enough people received their Ravens to wiggle or pull the cable, so gaming impressions may be hard to get

What is the sound difference between Raven and Odyssey? Anyone have any comments?
While they seem to measure very similar from what I've seen, when I listened to them back-to-back at canjam it seemed that Odyssey was quite a bit warmer and less spacious sounding than Raven. I also got a much better fit with Raven despite its size.

Speaking of winners, EE’s handling of the situation was exemplary. They recognized a problem and dealt with it candidly quickly and well. One simply cannot ask for better customer service.
Whether EE handled it candidly, quickly, and well is debatable. Some of us preordered the very first day it was available back in August, and have yet to receive ANYTHING... a v1 or v2 Raven... and still don't know when it's gonna show up. So, especially "quickly", from my point of view, is not a description I would make.

Agreed, they handled the entire launch and the subsequent mayhem very poorly. The one thing customers want in any niche like this is communication. Most of us are very patient if we just know what’s going on and what to expect, and get updates quickly if time tables are slipping.

I wonder, did they sell Raven’s cable separately? I would like to swap out onto my Odyssey. The more I think about it, and listen to it, the more I want to keep this IEM.

I'm not sure what they will charge for the cable on the raven, but I really enjoyed the PWA FT with the Odyssey and the Raven while I had it.

Soon Mid December, still no Launch edition in sight. I start to loose hope to get it before 2024.
Not many people seem to receive them, judging by how quiet it is here.

My distributor is annoyed as well, no news at all. Just radio silence and timelines that are missed.
