Massdrop x Noble X Universal IEMs Review / Preview

[Barndoor]

That is indeed true. Somehow the RE00 just slipped my mind when I was writing it.

Will amend it when I can. Don't have the chance right now.

NP, nice review by the way, although my wallet may not think the same!

Does Noble make small size of their silicone or foam tips? The majority of the time I have to use the small sized tips when using iems and I noticed on massdrop that these only come with medium and large.

Noble doesn't make ear tips, we buy them etc.

We offer the ear tips on our web site

Well, both foam tips that came with Noble X are too small for me. But I don't think I have particularly huge ears, the big silicones are too big for me and so are the big spinfits.

I've found Spiral Dots to work best with Noble's latest universal shell design.

You should just order some small tips off Amazon. Small spinfits would probably work well for yours. I use large spinfits on my 5u and 3u. I like spiral dots too on them, but spinfits seem to work the best for me on these.

I prefer Spiral Dots over all else. I'm using the ML ones on mine.

It seems more like it's just the shipping label has been created, not that the individual items have actually shipped right?

My understanding is that they've been shipped, the labels have been created and that we'll receive our first tracking update tomorrow. I may be wrong though as I've never ordered anything from abroad. Pure speculation on my side.

Hopefully someone can correct me but the previous email stated
"Thanks again for joining this drop! Shortly after the drop ended, we submitted the group's order with the vendor for the Massdrop x Noble X Universal IEMs. The vendor informed us that the bulk order was picked up and is on its way to our warehouse. Based on the tracking provided, the order is scheduled to arrive by 5/12."

So it sounds like Noble is shipping the items to Massdrop, whom will then individually mail them. I suspect that it's just that the shipping information has been created in bulk

I just spent a few hours listening to my Noble x's with comply T500 tips and they sound excellent indeed

Agree, probably just creation of shipping info. From my past orders with MD I wouldn't expect any movement to happen on the tracking for a couple of days and it to stay as "en route to dist. cent."

I'm so excited to see my Noble X has been shipped. Some people stated that Noble X does not worth the price, a lot stated it sounds great. Guess I will use my own ear to judge it.

There will be a bell curve of satisfaction, some will say they are crazy awesome, a bargain at 250, some will say, definitely worth the price, and some will say complete garbage.....

This is a subjectively judged product, so I expect comments to range all over the place. That being said, I do hope for positive comments.
