Bottom line is, If people are buying a $2400 product, it is priced ok. Doesn’t make it affordable. If the Wizard had to a fleet of Noble Bentley’s to pick customers up at the airport, maybe I’d start to question their margins. For now, I’m just happy I’ve found my personal TOTL.

Looking at some of these iem's, I'd imagine the car to be a hand built special

Oh if only it were gullwing!

Alas, it's just a standard Wizard set that I still thoroughly enjoy with my ZX2. Personally, I prefer the more non-descript (ie. plain) Noble shells with the smooth curves.

What tips are those on the Khan out of curiosity?

Those are the SednaEarfit XELASTEC tips, in medium size.

We still get occasional requests for a plastic/classic K10 from time to time. The trouble is, they are actually more difficult to build than the aluminum due to the hand finishing work.

There was one of those 300SLs on the way my buddy and I walked to school as 13 year-old kids. It was the guys daily driver. Hard to imagine it’s a 2.5-3.0 million dollar car today?

I live close to a "secret" restoration shop for them and last time I was there they had two that were being worked on. Amazingly beautiful pieces of machinery but unfortunately they wouldn't let me take any photos.

That's really interesting to know and am glad that to hear I'm not alone haha. Different strokes and all...

greetings, can i ask bout the fit of the sultan, as i like iems that can give deep insertion as i have deep ear canals, and for me many short stem iems are an issue, i like the fit of the khan as it provides the exact amount of deep insertion that suits me, would the sultan be having the same fit, or is its stem shorter

We used the khans physical shape as the foundation of the Sultan.

John pretty much answered your question already but I do have both Sultan and Khan and can say that if your Khan fits well, you should not have issue with the Sultan fit. For me both fit well and for me the Sultan gets a deeper insertion.

I would like to add that as I spend more time with each, I find them to be excellent compliments to one another. Both are musical but the Khan has more tightness, intimacy, and detail. The Sultan is extremely Euphonic with a large soundstage. The sound is bigger than life.

I am enjoying each immensely.

One of my personal favorites from an older batch of Prestige units. John's been on fire recently, I can't wait to show some of the newer stuff. Crazy we've come so far!​

Hey guys,

I’ve had a tia fourte for some time now and was looking to sell it and buy something priced lower. Also, I pair the tia fourte with the effect audio Horus cable and always found the sound to be a little fatiguing on the higher end.

Right now I’m looking at either the tia trio or the noble audio sultan. I also checked out the U12t and thought it would be a good option, but I read reviews comparing it to the trio and it seems like the trio has more micro detail which I prefer. However, maybe u12t with the Horus would be a solid combo.

that said, maybe I could demo the trio and u12t to compare and keep the one I like, but I also have my eye on the sultan because I used to have the kaiser 10 and loved it.

Any input would be appreciated!

Just noticed audio46 and bloom are selling Khan 2ND GEN. What's changed in this revision?

 

[Facta]

Curious. Might there be any reference Noble UIEM/CIEM for sound mixing and mastering use? General brand image seems to be IEMs meant for fun listening.
