So my Gator bag has been packed, as it will appear at Can Jam SoCal. It's a little bigger than I was expecting, but that's also a plus, as I can pack extra things in it like my laptop (won't bring that to the show, but leave it at the hotel), and pre-show, use it almost like a suitcase/carry luggage. But all my organizational bags all fit nicely and snug in the parent bag, and with the strap, it was actually fairly light. Super impressed with the build quality, and the space. So that was the last pre-show prep that needed to be completed, and that's done, so now the 140 days (exactly) wait until the evening before the show.

Another under the radar company that I have no idea how long they've been around, if they have anything else available, but this IEM's description caught my eye, as well as the store coupon that brought this down to about $25.00 from $35.00. single dynamic Graphene driver. 32ohms. Japanese copper voice coil. Carbon fibre faceplates with resin shell. It's a gorgeous shell that reminds me of the Archangel faceplate design, just a different color. Initial impressions are very spacious stage, nu-meta style treble, so safe, but incisive (not the airiest), clean midrange (like Kefine Klean clean), that's very clear and has good (not class leading) instrument separation, detail retrieval, and spatial cues. Bass at the moment is a bit sub bass focused, and a bit light in the energy and punch in the midrange. This is obviously a reason why the midrange is so clean and clear, as there isn't much the mid bass is adding to the lower mids, or the mids at all. I threw it on the burner to see if maybe the mid bass will make an appearance after some break in time? We'll see. So far it's a very good IEM for it's price range, but nothing exceptional. Maybe that changes later?
