Agreed the tuning on the BA end is very complimentary of the bass end. I know folks might have some reservations of the driver count on the Orb but I can assure everyone your gonna get a complete sound. If you can tune a full range of sound on a single BA..Which is much more difficult to do vs using a single dynamic. Add the dynamic and your getting a much more richer experience.
I have them in my ears during lunch time at my work today. Vocals sounds absolutely superb on these as they did on the Spheres. I mentioned how good the coherency is between the dynamic and the full ranged BA used in these and I stand by that.
A bit of a discovery on these. So I got these Penon made cheapos.
Just for grins I threw on a set of these cables. $15. Since the Orb does not come with balanced cables. Throw one of these in there. These match up much better than you would expect on the Orb. I was pleasantly surprised how good the Orb sounded with these. In balanced of course. If you plan on going balanced with the Orb and don't want to spend much.. These are solid cables for not that much and matches sonically with the Orbs. https://penonaudio.com/accessories/earphone-cable/mmcx/mmcx-silver-plated-replacement-cable.html
So here is something new. These look like a newer basic cable but with a purchase of a new item you get a $10 discount. Nice.
Havent tried this cable but looks like even a better deal. And for cheaper if you get another item with it. Ends up being $10
