I cannot find any mention of a giveaway on this thread. But you have to be in it to win it, and so count me in.

The GaeBoig looks pretty cool, and if it sounds anything like it’s big brother the Thummim then it should be a winner.

Additional information coming from discussion with Joseph, as I'm a happy owner of Trinity SS :

- Internal parts are all mounted on 3D printed chassis with all sound wave guide printed in one piece -> improves accuracy and stability of sound and overall performance
- better Dynamic driver from Foster Electric in Japan
- latest Estat driver and new high efficiency transformer from Sonion (different from trinity one)
- high purity pure silver internal wiring and special solder from Eletech
- new 0.78mm 2 pins socket with internal spring structure that improves life time and "plug and pull" life cycle (should not loosen easely)
