Savant has more bass than the Savanna, it has been described as the baby K10, I say get a Sage instead. Which is the Savant in its current form.

Interesting. Considering the Savanna has 4 BAs and the Savant 2, I kinda didn't expect that response.. I still wonder how the Savant did what it did with only 2 BAs... crazy ... In retrospect I should've kept the Savants but it's fun to try new things.
Thanks!

I'd love to get the Savant 2 but that'll certainly be out of my budget for a secondary iem..

Then you would really be shocked what the single Dynamic Bell does. :wink:

Can anyone briefly compare the original Savant to the Savanna? I had the Savant until I got the Katanas but am looking for some iems for work and thought maybe the Savanna.

Savant 2 = more bass than the Savannah

I read the feedback on the random noise with the Khan/cabling issues mostly with the apple adapters......and I think someone mentioned something similar to what I'm experiencing....but first thing I did with my Khans was change the cable to Leonidas II from EA with a 2.5mm balanced termination. I'm running my iBasso DX200TI with an amp8 with a 4.4mm to 2.5mm adapter.....so I plug the Khans in with no volume (0 on the player) and tried to start a song before I slowly crank up the volume....all I heard was whines and static before my player turned off. I restarted and the same thing happened again. If I change o the amp1 that came with the unit and just used the 2.5mm balanced output, the Khan plays fine apparently. Could someone (John/Noble hopefully) shed some light on what this issue is? I'll try these on my SP1000M/SP1000 later as well to see the results. Thanks.

All our tests thus far show that the Khan will work seamlessly with the cables provided by Noble (black standard or the heavier black silver)

I also have a Dx200 and use both cables without issue directly with the DX200

What we have found is that if one attempts to use an Apple + dongle, artifact can occur, and the standard black Noble cable will resolve the issue.

With black and white braided stock cable from Khan, only my Note9 has static noise.
DX200, Q1PR, WM1Z, IPOD CLASSIC WITH CV5 AND CDM HAVE NO STATIC NOISES.
Black only stock cable from Noble has no static noise with Note9.

So are you saying you will not correct the issue with the Kahn so that it will work with the iPhone dongle and the Kahn’s own cable? Please let us know. Thank you.

BTW, Twister 6 put out his report on CanJam NY. Here is a quote:
"After skipping NYC show last year, though Noble was there in 2017, this year they were back and with a brand new flagship IEM – Khan. Ironically, I think the real star of this table was Head-fier Watagump who was helping Noble at the show, and prior to that spent a week pumping everybody up on Head-fi, promising pizza and candies. It was fun chatting with Wata (I believe the real name is Eric), and I left the table with Twizzlers treats!" Pretty cool Wata!

Way ahead of you my friend, saw it when he posted. Its looking good that I might finally get to meet you in person at RMAF. I booked my flight for Axpona yesterday, so only 2 shows left after that for me.

There was some vague mention of a parallel flagship to the Khan so maybe it is that?
