The discovery thread!

Ordered the 7Hz Timeless from DROP. My curiosity for planar IEMs is boiling over now. Still trying to not wade into tribrids, even though they seem to be the mainstream tech for refined "hi-fi" IEMs. Betting on a decently tuned planar makes sense for my taste and hearing.

Is there a frequency response graph for the 7Hz Timeless? I am interested, but these days won’t buy without comparing to other IEMs…. Not that frequency response graphs are all there is to it, but it does provide a useful reference point…

BGGAR graphed it for his review. There's a little peak right around 2-3k but otherwise it follows his ideal curve pretty closely, which is encouraging. (His library has some overlap with mine.)

Edit: Or, what RikudouGoku posted

@PopZeus & @RikudouGoku - thank you! All of a sudden I am a bit more interested in the Timeless!!

A good excuse for me to hold off on any more TWS purchases until these hit the market…!

My Timeless is on the way, only a matter of...time before I get it.

Well, then it will be Timely…!

I also ordered the Hifiman Sundara, so I have some well regarded planars to compare with. Time will tell if its good or not.

Do you still have the Blon B20?

I do...unfortunately....

Same. Was thinking about getting the UTWS5 when it releases but now I will wait...

Definitely curious to see what you think about those. From your db it looks like they will be your first foray into mid-range open-back headphones?

mid-range open-back headphones?

Only got the Sivga Phoenix.

The revised Triaudio TRI planar-megnetic, now as Pro version. Is a bit smaller than the original and it sounds faster and brighter. Overall, quite an improvement imo. I really enjoy it. The original had some channel balance issue, my new one has an impeccable channel balance.

UPDATE: not sure whether the Pro is actually an improvement over the original. Voices are sharper and leaner, and staging has become flatter. The mids of the original are richer.
