one more word for the momentum. music completely fills the space. of all the other models, this is the one where I feel the most in music. and I repeat myself, but the bass and sub bass is amazing. I am completely conquered.

Which model are you speaking of, apologies for not remembering, so many people with so many variants? Astra right.

Ooo you lives in da attics ?

See even a boogey (wo)man likes quality audio☝

Thank you for the suggestion and for giving me hope that I may still like them yet. They're burning in once again right now.

I happen to have the Rah with me at work.
Here's some comparison pics.
The Elan fits perfectly for me
Flushes against ears very nicely!

My elan fitting goes deeper than yours. otherwise I have less BC effect. Try the smaller tips and push them deep inside your ears. Then the BC will reveal.

Ah yes Elan, these sound perfect for me by the few early impressions so far.

It's the Elan, sorry sometimes Google makes bad translation.

Anyone has the EDP+? After 180 h burn in, they have excellent sound quality, but I still feel that treble extension and resolution are not great compared with my FiiO FH7. I use the grey plus blue filter combo, other combos increase bass but decrease more the treble and mid resolution...

Fiio FH7 is tunned in a very harsh, sparkling way. It uses pure silver cable. Maybe if you try that sort of cable, it can helps a little bit. but I think it cannot goes as sparkly as the fh7. And cable needs a little burn in too, in my opinion. for me, what is currently close to fh7 is elan and surely ozar. although I don't have it. I also own the fh7. in my opinion, balanced armature drivers cannot be copied. it is to be verified.

 

[Tiaa]

for those who have elan or ozar? have you noticed a more feeling of bass and sub bass sound pressure (spl)?

I am happy to now confirm i am accepting any and all donations of unwanted and disliked IEM's from the IMR stable. Thank you

Nelly, i really hope you can get your dream IEM. it's sad that one of us can't take advantage of it. I would like to have the possibility help you.

When I got back home I moved to my Spinfits and Sednas. I got the best fit with them.

Compared to the Rah and Semper, Elan are the most comfortable fit for me.

Out of the box, these are the first pair of IMRs for me that I am happy to listen to with the black-black filter combo.
I usually found that the increased bass would lessen sound stage, but this hasn't been the case here.

Roger Waters, Deja Vu was a wall of immersion for me and the heart beat sound seemed suspended within there somewhere.

I still have many burn in hours to go, but am quite excited with the onward journey.

Just keep posting your findings of what you hear with the Elan, I shall wipe away the odd tears from my weary eyes and we will all live happily ever after .

Ozars:

First time i don’t feel the need for the eternal burn in that will lead to a we don’t know where destination. I’m perfectly happy with em as they are right now, red/ pink (bt/ top) are making this perfectly balanced with amazing mids and treble extension. They are perfect, definitely worth it. Bass has become more evident with the hours and the mids are turning more and more mature, I’m truly enjoying this pair. I’m actually tempted to get the Ellans, but Bob told me to hold my horses… the east wind is coming…

I also tried with red nozzle/blue filter but mids are shallower and bass increased as compared with grey nozzle/blue filter. The latter is the only combo that sounds fine with mids (voices) that is the best quality of the IMR+, but treble is really poor as compared with BA drivers. I even purchased a graphene balanced cable and it only improves a bit the treble as compared to the stock cable...

So after experimenting some more, I think I'm going to settle on the purple nozzle/red filter on the EDP+. I wish there was a nozzle that has a smidge more low end than purple but less than grey or red but in the absence of such an option, I feel like this is the best I got. Due to the reduced bass response on the purple nozzle, treble does come through a bit more and things are not as muffled sounding. With any luck, another 100 or so hours of burn in increase the bass response a tad bit and I'll be happy.

Glad to see you are enjoying your Ozar. Can't wait to receive mine and trying them out! In hindsight, I should have just ordered Elan instead of getting both Ozar and EDP+ but oh well!

I mentioned perviously, I experienced an almost night and day difference running the EDP+ through a powerful desktop amp. My previous issues disappeared. This is a fairly common experience though with planar drivers - They need more power than most other drivers. With all IMR you really do need to get well over 300 hrs to start to tweak.

Yeah I'll keep burning in the EDP+ and reassess past the 300 hr mark. One thing I'm suspecting is that I've grown quite used to the piezo drivers and their characteristic treble responses in the Aten and the obvious difference between the Aten and the EDP+ is throwing me off a bit.
