I'll throw in this...Highly recommend you go from 1:30 onward at the very least but the big ticket slam is a bit after 3 minutes.

Here ya go
here is another sub-bass massage if you like dnb I recently got the Rn6 because of all the hype and it has really good sub-bass balanced with other regions but I think it is too expensive for what I get out of it (as usual with hifi gear..)
so I whish sometimes to compare how much of a difference with scarlet is

When did you order it?Waiting for my Grand Maestro to get sent any day now. @Sebastien Chiu do you have any updates?
I am sorry for the picture spam but wow.. FATfreq certainly stepped up their “packaging” for the Grand Maestro.
I’m not one to care for extravagant unboxings if I'm honest... I’m perfectly happy with what I received when I got my GM back in March, or even the cardboard box of the Traillii. But this is some Erlkonig-level unboxing here. Very lovely stuff, and the new puck case has sets for 3 modules (there are 2 more in development/soon to be released I believe?)

Looking to buy a Maestro SE if anyone wants to sell theirs for a Grand Maestro after seeing that packaging

Holy smokes, that is incredible. Finally they've pushed the packaging/accessories up to a level deserving of that premium price.I am sorry for the picture spam but wow.. FATfreq certainly stepped up their “packaging” for the Grand Maestro.

Regarding the extra modules, I'm crossing my fingers for a Scarlet module If that happens (if that's even possible), that's it. I'm selling my house for a pair of earphones.

I auditioned both (Scarlet mini and Maestro mini) at CanJam SoCal 3 weeks ago. The FR graph reaffirms my subjective observations:Holy crap this graph is even more insane xDDD

* Scarlet has more bass and sub-bass (although to my basshead taste, the Maestro is perfectly fine and not lacking).
* Maestro wins by a big gap (for me) on details and instrument separation. I believe the extra energy in 4kHz to 10kHz could explain that.
So for me, Maestro Mini is better.
Scarlet is not positioned as an upgrade but rather as a companion or side-grade. That is the right way to position it, as I am sure others would prefer the Scarlet...
