I ordered one mostly out of curiosity, and because I wanted something a bit more fun to listen to than the Dioko, mostly based on Ian Fann preview of the prototype.
I really hope it's good, but at that price I'm not taking a huge risk.

I just order then on matte black + GRAMR cable.

Sure the will be a nice pick to use with the STEAM DECK 🎮

I got my Celest Gumiho this morning, and gave them a quick listen.
I'm no critical listener, but I really like what I heard, especially for that price.
They also fit my ears very well, I just put a pair of KB07 instead of the stock eartips, mostly because they were a perfect fit.
All in all, definitely worth the price I paid to me.
I'll give them a more detailled listen later and I'll try to compare them to the Dioko, but at first, they seem to be less fatiguing.

Glad to hear!

I've never listened the dioko, but I want to know about the bass response.

Waiting for your impressions

I love the attention to details even with packaging.
Been listening to mine a bit more today, and all in all, I think it's the best IEMs I have, as I do prefer it's tuning and it's soundstage compared to the Dioko or the 7Hz zero that I also got recently.
That being said, it is definitely tuned in a more fun way than both of those so I wouldn't use them for the same things, but yeah, I do think those could be my daily drivers.

The packaging is superb, really impressive this quality box, accesories, cable and build.

First impressions, with open-bore white tips are nice. Nice layering, over-average stage (better than s12) but the most impressive is the quantity of information it provides.

I would like to compare vs the fa7s (the more resolutive iem Ive tried)

Review settled to next week

This is the new "square planar" Celest Gumiho? I'm not sure I would want to try that in my ear!! Maybe they look way bigger than really are!

Im not a "burning believer" but after 4 hours of usage I feel them more open and less blurrier.

I'll try to compare on the next days versus the s12

Bass get some air, and I dont feel them bright (Im not so sensitive to the high frequencies) but this performance on 50$ range... Hard to believe something of this quality on the price.

Need to compare versus a "bigger wallet" iems, but the hype is real

Im surprised about the amplification need of this earphone.

The BTR7 via 3.5mm cant move properly. Need high gain to get the bodyness of the planar bass.

oh ? Interesting. Didn't really have any issue when using either my Qudelix 5K, the Creative X-Fi Dongle or my Sony NW-A100, but I didn't really try to pay attention to that particular aspect of the sound.

I'll try to pay more attention to it.

The unboxing of Gumiho. I think I'd like the matte black faceplates without the artwork more.

Thats exactly my model.

It really looks nice with the white/black cable.

Its impressive the level of the packaging, only fault is the no inclusion of case
