I'm trying to restrain myself from buying a new pair of headphones this year. However, it is impossible to resist. I wanted to give a chance to 7hz Timeless, which has become quite famous lately and especially thanks to Crinacle. This is my first planar sets in my collection. I'm critical of all reviewers and the same was true for Crinacle. But in order to have an idea, you have to have it. I ordered from Linsoul with great deal on 11.11.
The accessories are great. Especially the case! For the first time, I'm planning not put the case aside but really use it, keep the IEMs in it. This is a solid aluminium case. Very heavy, very secure. The included tips are also great and they come with their nice cases as well. Everything touches my eyes gently. The presentation is great.
My first impression right out of the box was confirmation. I was keeping in mind the highlights of other reviews whether positive or not. I can say that if you can buy it for under $200, I would definitely say buy it without thinking! Definitely such a planar set of IEMs should be in your kit.
What catches my attention is that it locks me up while listening to music and makes me drift away. It has a very lively presentation and I can now understand how planar drivers sound like. You are really into the music. It has a very interesting presentation that I still feel a little strange to recognize. Its soundstage is unique and you definitely need to give some time to understand its depth. So, I'd say brain burn in is required here, you need to get used to these and how they convey the sound.
They are full of micro detail and resolution. Details are conveyed to the end. There is a harmony in the music, the consistency is quite good. The tone is just as good.
Bass is quite adequate. But not at a bass head level. It rumbles very well, it can go deeper, it can move from one to the other quite agile. The mids are a bit recessive, but it is sufficient for me. I like female vocals more than male vocals on these. The notes are complete. As for the treble, the technicality is very good, giving it to the last bit. I don't have such a high end headphone, but I found the ultra high end really successful.
Imaging is great. Timbre is great. Tonality is great. Soundstage is the interesting part. It seems like it lacks depth at the beginning but you need to give it some time to make yourself get used to it. The vertical and horizontal dimensions are very well but the depth is the interesting part that it sounds like not deep but it's actually good. For the sake of having that imaging, detail capabilities, i guess you should be okay with some minor cons.
I definitely recommend it. I totally agree with Crinacle's review. You should have one in your set.
