If you had to choose just one, Zenith or Atlas, which would you choose and why? I am looking to buy just one and keep it.The Zenith is more forward and in your face with it's sound. Excellent wide stage and can be a little aggressive in the top end. Very snappy and full bass sound, the black filter is default and I stuck with it on the Zenith as opposed to the pink one on the OG R1.
The Atlas is one of the most engaging IEM's I have. Allow yourself to adapt to the sound as it definitely is not a "first listen" IEM. The bass is deep and the treble extends well north, there is sparkle up top.
From what you say the Zenith has the bigger soundstage?
When you say the Atlas isn't a first listen iem what do you mean?
Atlas is 3 times the price of Zenith, which I am happy to pay if it's worth it. Though I'm getting the impresion they are not so far apart. Is that true?
Wish I could demo them both.
On a secondary note, I see you have Legend X... I wonder how they compare...
