The streaks wound up complimenting the logo and faceplate very well-looks great! EnjoyHi guys,
Rise up this mornin'
Smiled with the risin' sun
Two little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true
Saying', (this is my message to you)
Singing' don't worry 'bout a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright
Finally could receive my precious!!
Felt like a kid during Christmas!
I‘m quite happy with the custom design. It looks pretty nice. Let me know what you think.
I managed to test them on the way to work and at work. As expected, the cable is very bad for on the go use case (sorry for rehashing the cable thing, but after my real use case scenario it’s definitely a problem for me) . The shirt clip doesn’t help and the chin slider is useless since it slides back down every 10 seconds. Also while turning the head, the cables from each earpieces rub against each others inside the chin slider which is very annoying. In the end I have to raise the sound as high or even higher than my open back i4 to compensate for rubbing microphonics and stumps from footsteps. I’ll try with my Billow cable to see if it improves on that.
For stationary use though, it’s fine.
So if you plan on using those on the go or while moving at home, it might be a good idea to try another cable. If you plan on staying put, just sit back and enjoy!
Now for the SQ, no surprises either since I demoed them so many times during the last 2 months. Just amazing!
Today I tested on -After Hours- from -The Weeknd- and the bass, sense of scale, placement and detail retrieval is nuts on this song!
I‘ll try to share better pictures when I have time (probably during May holidays), as well as some sound comparisons against i4 when Traillii is burned in. I’ll also try to throw in some pictures and sound comparison with Billow cable.
Cheers,
Julien
(If you find a cable that offers similar synergy without the microphonics as the 4w, let me know. I have the Iliad to test with it and will share impressions later this week, but so far its a solid substitute for when on-the-go).
