I have absolutely no idea when they're coming! Ordered about a month and a half ago, so it might still be a while. OTL definitely produces tighter, more visceral bass with that texture that it's known for. Mids a tiny bit more forward, and detailed but smooth treble. I've been playing around with the Chiron and Fusion 1 also, and each gives the GMs a unique flavor. The FF gold cable is actually kind of hard to beat. Might sell whatever cables I decide against, but I figured I should try them all on the ciem, just in case there's a difference from the universal. Any thoughts on SQ differences with custom? Thanks!
Yeah, that’s how I feel about the upgrade cable too. It already sounds great so I’m not really in a rush to swap it heh.
When I demo’d the GM the unit was faulty, so I basically bought the CIEM blindly so I can’t be certain about what’s diff. The uni to CIEM MSE was great a positive upgrade though, on the universal I’d get occasional sibilance and sharpness in the highs which isn’t present in the CIEM whatsoever.
