Intime SORA: Giant killer IEMs from Japan?

Probably keener to hear the Sora 2 than any of the e-earphone limited editions at this point. Hard to determine all the tunings from the info online but I reckon these drivers could sound good in an all-steel shell. Do love the purity of timbre of the VST, it sounds uncannily real.

What is the name of the headphone model with the girl on the package? And where did you buy it?
Cocoro
It’s the name they gave to the project initially. Now they spun off a separate brand name (maestraudio) for that line of housing shapes.

Please show a link to CoCoRo headphones.
As I tried to say, they are not sold anymore. Their evolution is called Maestraudio. Look on amazon jp for those

If anyone is in Hong Kong, there's a place called ect eichi technology international, that's offering massive discounts for intime iems

Only sho dd, yo, go and shu Mai are in stock. The rest you're buying the demo model.

Bought myself a sho DD for what amounts to 70 us dollars.

Impressions

In general intime iems are a bit lacking in imaging, clarity, and transients are only decent compared to the best but honestly it's more than adequate for the price.

That being said the timbre on these guys are really good. And the tuning for most of them are solid. Very easy to listen to.

Miyabi mk2
Very flat and balanced fr, relaxed presentation to boot.

With decent res and inoffensive sound its IMO the most neutral of the bunch. My favorite tied with the sho dd

Kira mk2
Is less even, more u shaped and slightly slams more, with a tad more mid bass. Not for me

Sho dd.
Slightly u shaped but I'd still consider neitralish. Comapre to miyabi it has more and punchier bass, and is slightly darker and less clean sounding .

But in return it has alot more slam with a bigger, thicker more upfront sound than miyabi. Transients are slightly more defined and also images better.

Shumai
Super uneven fr, very scooped mids and raised treble. Still somehow unoffensive, no glare or sibilance and has that good timbre.

Yo
Kinda like a treble head version of the miyabi. It's a bit thinner and brighter, but still overall pretty balanced.
