Anyone know if ISN is going to have a sale? My boss wants to buy the EST50 after hearing mine.

Rocking the Vortex off my desktop with gold plated silver/palladium plated silver, 8 wire cable...astonishingly good.... I was listening to my Szalayi and after a few hours I threw on the Vortex, and it wasn't a 'downgrade' in sound quality, it was just a different presentation. Granted the SZA was more complex in presentation, but the Vortex has this hypnotic quality about it...and I am noticing, the soundstage on the Vortex is actually rather large, there is fantastick layering and depth.
Really looking forward to the Fan2...it's already in the city but because of the holiday tomorrow I won't get it until Friday :triportsad:
I've been showing my boss my audio gear over the last several months, and he now wants to buy an IEM (his first), and his wife gave him a $500 budget. Today I lent him my Globe and my EST50 as 2 possible price points. With the 50 on sale, I hope he goes for that one. But he cant go wrong with the Globe either.

Happy Thanksgiving! :poultry_leg:

The Serial with the Plussound Copper EXO8 cable. Definitely on my Top 3 list of the year from all the IEMs I have bought or listened to.

Looks really nice together with your pair of Serial.

Going to pair my Serial with the ISN C2, taking some time since they are making a custom one made in 160cm length. Blue is cool and all, but I prefer the pure copper or silver look.

If I still had the Serial, I'd probably pair it up with something that would brighten its treble somewhat... I'd give the ISN S2 cable a try on it. I really dig the S2 on my Vortex!

How much extra did that cost you?
I think they do personal requests and price out from what history etc you have with Penon. Better to ask directly, already had a few nice talks with Mr. Penon (Ming)
