I recently tried Jomo Serenity and it blew my mind. It's not regarded as those beast of hi-res and details
But it is open and musical. Feels like listening to a big headphone rather than an IEM
As a music lover, I would rank it above those TOTL flagships

Brise Fugaku
Jomo Serenity
Subtonic Storm
PMG Apx
Fitear DC TI
Fitear Titan
AME Mousa
Sony IER Z1R
Canpur CP74E
Shure KSE1200/1500
Sony Justear Listening
Acoustune HS2000mx mk3
Campire Trifecta

I am exactly a DCTI CM and Titan Universal owner
But Titan Universal is too uncomfortable so I am waiting for my CM to come. Just ordered in late February, hope it would sound better than the Universal one

In what aspects Erlkonig Black and Macbeth are superior to Serenity?

Tri I3 Mk3 bumped off?

 

[FreeWheelinAudioLuv2]

@Steve_72 - Yep. I might place it in the top 12? But with bangers like the Archangel, DX1, and Defiant dropping recently, yeah, some will slide. It's inevitable. But the i3 MK III is still top 15 for sure, and most likely top 12, and it still gets plenty of play in the rotation. Hard to beat that treble.

And no place for an ISN H20... Oh boy ))

And no place for an ISN H20... Oh boy ))

I absolutely love it!! But it's too polarizing. If folks would take my suggestion for tips and cable, i'd place it top 5 for sure, but since most folks who post their H20 haven't taken my suggestions to heart, it's just too polarizing, and some folks, like myself, love it, and others hate it. I posted my top 10 budget rec's that I'm confident won't be polarizing in the least. Mostly. But yes, I'd throw the H20 in there 8-9b if folks added a silver/palladium/foil cable and AZLA Crystal 1.
