Quite interested in the Sora 2.

The "vst" and "hdss" drivers in it are something I have never seen before.

VST stands for Vertical Support Tweeter and it looks like it's some kind of piezo driver: http://intime-acoustic.jp/?tid=1&mode=f4
HDDS doesn't seem to be a driver but a tech licensed from TBI Audio Systems aiming at reducing distortion by eliminating standing HF waves affecting the DD if understand correctly.

I was under the wrong impression that Intime products were single DD. I am not sure if all this makes me more or less interested...

This should please the Trebleheads w/i us.
But in my experience, even that original Sora (that i have) will tone down its well known brightness over months of use.
Or maybe my ears adjusted, idk, not certain. Only speaking out from user experience...
As for me, i'd choose this when the time comes, very easy to tame the excessive brightness via high purity litz copper...

Can you provide sound comparison of the two?
Yeah would be interesting, I really like the Sora 2 so I am looking at Intime`s better stuff.
