What's the sound signature of the Chronicle compared to the Viking Ragnar?

Don't some companies make like these dummies once they have your impressions and send em to you to confirm fit. Also what if you did it in stabilized wood or would that defeat the whole thing

Ultimately,
The Chronicle, like the Viking Full Damascus, is a limited short run IEM.

Is this the actual look of the IEM or is the color schema a wrap, like how they hide the look of prototype cars?

Kind regards,
Lars

At this point in time, no plans.
Perhaps that's because the Viking Ragnar has withstood the test of time, and still stands out relative to current flagships from other vendors. :wink:

It scales really well and keeps impressing me as I've upgraded my chain over time.

I'm currently using it with L&P E7->Shirogane IC->Tur08 tube amp->PWA Orpheus cable. This setup really brings out the bass, warms it up a little, and provides an astounding level of detail and holography, with good note weight. Other IEMs have come & gone from my collection, but the Ragnar has been a constant.

Hi gang,

I know @warrenpchi has raved about Spartacus for a while - @Andrew DiMarcangelo sent me one of Bloom's units in preparation for a SoCal meet on Aug 24.

I was immediately impressed when I spent 5 minutes with these guys in NYC, and they've been in my back pocket of highly underrated IEMs.

My suspicions with these were not taken off, but they were confirmed in the past week—musical, W-shaped fun with an excellent implementation of the two BCD drivers. With this kind of implementation, no DD is needed.

I loved the MEST MK2 and figured this would be a solid upgrade - it is! It is a little warmer than the MEST, but not badly. The soundstage is wider than the MEST vs how deep the MK 2 is. Very atmospheric.

Notably great with classical and EDM.

I am very happy my once-upon-a-time first client is rocking the game and found a good stride. In the house sound of recent releases, this and the Viking stand out to me. Nicely done, @FullCircle! Can't wait to try Chronicle at NYC!

-Seb
