I shouldn't ask this question but I will. Where would one go if they were to consider a similar purchase?!
You can either contact Effect Audio directly via their website, but even better, PM @EffectAudio on HF and they'll point you in the right direction. This was my first time dealing with EA, and the experience has been nothing short of stellar so far.

I’m giving away this little red van nuys tube case that came with the traillii. I’ve since replaced it with something else and I don’t use it anymore.

not sure what it retails for by itself from van nuys, but the first person who wants it can respond here. I’ll pm you and I’ll drop it in an envelope and send it over.

hope everyone’s having a great week!

What are you using instead? I wrapped mine around this maybe twice at first but it has sat unused in the case since!

Perfect, thank you. I'll hold a couple of weeks but looks very appealing and I love the idea of ConX.

Speaking about the rabbit hole has anybody heard or own these?


Well so far MAD24 is still my go to IEM.
Tried the Traillii, sold it.
Tried IE900, will sell it.
And a big bunch of other things.

It's just a love story. So technical and musical, best BA bass heard, moist low mids, clear mids and high mids, extended treble. Never shouty. Sounds so natural...

Great job there and certainly highly underrated.

Also, this is how I pack mine. I do use the red piece to hold the W2.

Seeing all this talk about conx reminds me… recently launched in HK, the Mogami by Lake People iem cable, swappable connectors on both sides, japan sourced ofc cable, parts and assembly done in Germany at Lake People (violectric’s mother company)

The lamp cord looking one is detail and clarity oriented, the other is more euphonic according to local reviewers

I bought the below from Campfire and it’s a MILLION times better for me.

Yes, I use this for all my IEMs. I ordered a bunch at MTMTaudio.
I was on the EU Ambient Acoustics tour back at the start of 2021. I had the MAD10, MAD16 and MAD24 for a week.

I wrote up my impressions on the AA board If you would like to read them. My post is #110 ( sorry, I do not know how to link the post directly)
