I have sneaked a listen or two while the burn-in is going on, and I'll just say the top end is glorious

  Okay, okay, okay......
 
I got my Solars back - the Veil is lifted! Sammy had his technician fix the end of the nozzle on my Solars so that the treble tubes weren't blocked by my ear canal.
 
The scales have fallen from my eyes.
 
More to come (I am pretty jazzed)

Any updates - how are the Solars doing now they are back?
I am really interested in hearing how you would compare contrast against the K-10 and the Westones
 
I can't audition all the iems, so I am narrowing it down to the K-10, solar or the galaxy.

speaking of the NT6, can anyone post thoughts on those with the Galaxy?  the NT6 seems more similar to the Galaxy than the Solar.

head's up for those who wondered where did the Rhapsodio tour thread disappeared to....
 
I was informed that it's against the forum rule to organize a tour on behalf of a non-sponsoring manufacturer, so the tour couldn't be carried out as what I had planned. I apologized for raising up anyone's hope to have a chance to demo it.

@tupac0306 posted this chart some time ago: http://cdn.head-fi.org/6/64/6427ef06_841408908.png
It includes his opinion on the NT6, Galaxy and many other totl iems as well, on a detailed level...
 
Can't escape the sun.

I'm toast.

 
Lucky you! You should know by now that it's a privilege to get burned by the Solar

Well, this would have been my 2nd guess, after The Twilight Zone of course

It depends what tonality you want. Slightly warm and u shaped will be Z Solar or K10, the Solar being more airy and spacious to my ears. More neutral, clear and fast, Galaxy.

Yes Galaxy will be closer to the NT6 than the Solar, but still different. First, the NT6 is brighter, besides, the Galaxy has more air movement in the mid bass, due to the dynamic driver. All I can say as I have not had the NT6 for a while.

I'm rather surprised that the Solar is considered that warm... I really don't hear it that way. Also, that the Galaxy, being a dynamic, is so fast/neutral in signature. Usually it's the other way around for BA vs. DD IEMs. I'm a bit curious about the Galaxy now!

Is the Custom Solar the same price as the Universal? $1,350?

Their website shows that the Solar custom is $200 more ($1,550).
 
The Galaxy would be more to my preference.
