Laura and Traillii was utterly epic - I have forgotten the chap's name who leant me his Traillii late on Sunday - if he sees this, thank you!

Don’t tell me that about Laura + Traillii. I’m trying to curb my spending!

Take comfort I'd take Storm over that combo still......

I would really like to have more time with Storm and do a proper A/B with Traillii.

I really need more time with the Storm - it's a very competent IEM, going for a more reference sound, very effortless in delivery. Great dynamics, good soundstage and central imaging. I just don't think I want that from a TOTL IEM, especially one so expensive. I prefer my TOTLs to be a little specialist, to wow me on certain aspects.

Plus the elephant in the room is I have not tried the Jewel, and that is needed to know relatively how things stack up.

reference sounds boring for this price range tbh. Unless it’s technicalities blows everything else out of the water.

Hmm I wouldn't call storm boring. It leans a bit musical. Its more a case of what I want out of my totl iems. Probably more specialists.

I think the First Times Shielding makes a noticeable difference in sound quality to me. So much so that I am looking to buy another one to pair with Traillii and Traillii is moving up in my rankings because of it. Not sure how much, but definitely rising.

Also, I never heard a veil on Traillii. Maybe we are defining it differently. If a cable makes an IEM more revealing, that doesn't mean that it was veiled before it. It just means that the new set up is more revealing. That's one of the benefits I hear from the FT Shielding.

that is why I bought the first-time shielding instead of the regular first time, I do experience more of the sound difference compared to other cables ( haven't yet tried the Orpheus but the price is just so high ), I am looking forward to pairing with either my traillii and FS

I’ll say it again…

I may have just sold my traillii due to it not having pressure relief, but with Orpheus, traillii is still arguably the best iem sound I’ve heard.

Congrats ...

Why congrats?

Well for selling it of course ...

They arrived a day early! I ordered these the second day of CanJam Chicago, and it’s been a test of patience waiting for delivery ever since. @bluestorm1992 apologies for the copy, but I was totally smitten by your model and couldn’t find anything else that moved me. I put the Bird in the same category as my ZMF VOs in that they’re almost like heirloom pieces. I also felt the look was a tribute to the region of the world they come from, reminding me of my travels to greater Asia.

It’s been an R&B night so far, flashing back to my youth with Michael’s Off the Wall and Anita’s Rapture, and it all sounds fantastic. It might be a rough day at work tomorrow.

Now we’re tripling

Now we’re tripling

Hah! Love it!

 

[bluestorm1992]

Congrats to you both!!

I know this is not the perfect comparison by any stretch of the imagination, but out of curiosity I autoEQed my Monarch to mimic Traili. Damn it sounds so pleasing, I can listen to it for days. Hoping for Oriolus to release a mini-Traili for us cheap guys out there
