Bobtrinity was the tri-force on the little case an Easter egg?
Anyway the husband loves the Hyperions, so small and light, I was surprised at exactly how small ans light they were, even after seeing scale pictures. First thing he did was put his favorite dubstep mix on and he had a smile on his face. Said they are absolutely perfect in terms of sound and build, like everyone else his favorite bit out the build was the cable, oh and the fact they actually stay in his ears. He seemed impressed with the detail and enjoyed the overall balance between base, mids and treble.
Unpacking them and handling them it is difficult to believe they retail for only £30, due to the look, feel and the amount of accessories, this is emphasized even more when you hear them. For this price and size I half expected them to sound a little tinny but they didnt at all. Seriously if £30 quid is a steal, the kickstarter price was just plain dirty.
I have had a little listen to them myself and I mean little - hour or so, when I wrestled them away from him. Initial impressions are that they are surprising and just not what I expected from something so tiny and light weight, they sound clean and have maybe an airiness to them? Handles base well and gets low, is not overpowering, mids I would say sound detailed and clear, the treble shimmers and didnt seem harsh from my very limited time with them. I have paid much more than this and not been as happy with the product, for what it is worth from a audio n00b like me, I am impressed.
I looking forward to seeing the new stuff soon. Will you send test units out like last time to some of the reviewers Bob?
