WTH is happening with IEM's prices recently lol, 6500$?

 

[Virtu Fortuna]

Is that price confirmed?

Yes, i bought them for 8M KRW with 10% discount
S.Korea is the country that released for the first time

Just buy moondrop s8, probably best value iem for the money

Nearly plunged for it. Bought the Blessing 2 instead. Could you compare the Ori v2 with the s8?

This is a box of traillii, not that fancy looking for the price

I agree, it's a shame to see another manufacturer take the "crazy" route. I loved my Oriolus Mk2, but the price was steep then; now it's just absurd. Bye, bye, Baby.

The included cable is PW audio x Hyla RT-1 Arthur, approximately 230k yen. So the unit itself is about 500k, still expensive tho

Photos not mine.

This has to be an incorrect pricing statement. As it's a 230% cost per driver that Oriolus has used in the past including with recent releases. Assuming that corrections will be issued pretty soon.

Any official info on this? I don't see anything on Oriolus JP site. Comments about sound signature? Out of reach for me but curious

official info not available yet, I heard oriolus jp will release traillii at the end of april but due to covid-19, it can be postponed
7 pc sold in S.Korea, I was one of them
I used 3-4 weeks and I sold them because they were too expensive for the sound
about sound signature they are balanced but slightly low-mid emphasized
compared to empire audio wraith (7ba + 4est), they are different brand but sounded similar to my ears, traillii had wider soundstage than wraith though
in my country, traillii seems overhyped right now, I think they are just an expensive ordinary iem

You sold them already? That's some loss considering the retail price is like 7-8 million KRW...

not a big loss, it’s out of stock right now
they are currently making reservation
hard to buy secondhand goods because people who bought this iem are enjoying them except me

I feel that in recent times manufactors are not like “let`s make a great IEM, no matter what it costs“ anymore but instead literally: „Let`s try to sell an IEM for 6500 Dollars!“

So I can safely say the Reborn is lighter than the Mk2. It also seems to have just a smidge better separation, width and is just a tad less dark than the Mk2 to my ears. These are all welcome changes to this update IEM. Oh and the bass is still king

It`s so interesting that perception of Oriolus seems to vary so much. I`ve heard other people calling them dark, but since I am using Oriolus (Mk2) I have compared them to many other earphones and have never ever thought they sound dark.
They have elevated mids, yes, but to me, they are still on the brighter side of the spectrum. For example, to me they sound way brighter than the Fidue Sirius or NCM NC5V2, that have similar driver configurations. Might just be a question of the definition of the term "bright", which may vary. Or maybe fit?

I always felt the Mk2 had a warm/neutral sound, but was very revealing of source. So if the source was a bit bright this could be discerned w that iem.

Really loving the Reborn. Same resolution, mids and bass that I got used to with the Mk2, but there’s more stage. It’s just that much more out of and around my head.
