Hey man I really enjoyed the review!
I'm relatively new in the "Audio World" and I was wondering if you could recommend me something like the noble Trident C, I already own a pair of Sennheiser urbanite XL's and I'm looking into growing my collection, with a pair of earbuds, and custom in ears really sound awesome. Is something like the Trident C going to compare well to the Sennheisers in terms of quality? (I understand that they might not have the same sound signature.) Or is something like the Trident C not worth it for me? Or maybe something like the Savant?

Again really enjoyed your review!

Can u specify the music genres u like?

 

[luisandre]

Could someone give some feedback regarding K10 being a better pair with a "more analytical" DAP rather than a more "warm/analog sounding" DAP?
For instance: AK100II+K10 or AK300+K10
Thank´s!

I hope you don't mind me side tracking a little here. I took delivery of the Dulce Bass earlier this week. I wanted to dip my toes into the world of Noble Audio with a mid priced set of IEMs to see what their sound is about. I've had se846, IE800, so nothing major but the latter did punch above their weight. 
 
The Dulce Bass have confirmed I need the K10 CIEM in my life. I cannot take the Dulce Bass out of my ears. The bass isn't as hard hitting as I thought it would be, but wow, they reveals layers of bass I have never heard before. It is complimented by very nice, if a little recessed mids although I would say in the most slightest way. Vocals are very detailed yet smooth and a few rows back from what I am used to. If the K10/Satana excel on what I am hearing then I will be a very happy guy. 
 
So Kudos Noble. You have a new fan. So much so, your sticker has made its way onto my second main product in my life (Mac Pro). 
 
I cannot wait to get my impressions done, and finally pull the trigger on the K10, or, perhaps the Satana subject to what I hear before committing with aid2hearing in London.

Glad to hear u like them, and im also glad to hear you have a chance to demo products at aid2hearing

Hi, thank you for your reply.
 
Both Audio Sactuary, and Aid2Hearing are superb personal companies to deal with. As a company owner myself I won't part with money unless I deem the transaction worthy. I procured the Dulce from Phil @ Audio Sanctuary and look forward to meeting Gisele in November when I am next in London. 
 
Coming from what was a very coherent IEM with the single driver IE800, I cannot believe (although I can) i'm listening to 5 drivers. The benefits are clear, i'm left thrilled no matter what I throw at them - all genres except for classical. I shall be introducing a friend to Noble when I visit London, another keen IEM audiophile. As above, if the K10 or Satana excel in a few areas such as HF and soundstage, I will buy accordingly, I just hope the bass is akin, or not too far away from the Dulce. You have tuned the bass on the Dulce perfectly. I have played many many tracks and the layers of bass are an utter pleasure to hear they really are. If music wasn't such a huge part of my life I would happily live with the Dulce but they are intended for gym use, and K10/Satana for outside the gym.
 
For any Dulce owners, listen to James Blake's Retrograde track. For the first time ever I have noticed the mixer/sound engineer gently increases the bass with each note from the start of the track before levelling it off. This has never been apparent before regardless of setup. This includes the Beyer T1 / Hugo TT.
 
I've had endless pairs of headphones over the years, Senn 600, 650,800, Beyerdynamic T70p, T1 / T5p2 etc but only the Nobles grab and immerse me into the music. 
 
I am hoping there is no sound degradation by using the iPhone mic cable?
 
Many thanks.
 
Pedro

No sativa was used or harmed during the design/build process of the Katana

Hahaha. Apologies, Katana! Nothing strange going on here I promise. I currently have Dulce, hence the side track but will be hearing both K10 and its evil brother Katana in November. I am seeking the bass of the Dulce. It's very very addictive.

+1. Although my days of that stuff are over with. Good memories though.
