My most recent concert was when I visited Spain (just came back). Went to the Palau de la Musica Catalana. Watched a very talented solo pianist, Marta Zabaleta.

What a lovely day today was, Been drizzling since morning. I just love such good weather. And such good weather always calls for a sweet little music session. Spent like 2-3 hours straight with my IE600 and RS2 listening to some Coke Studio <3

Some of my favorite tracks(mostly in Hindi and Punjabi Languages):-

My daughter took this excellent photo on our flight this morning, early morning over Dublin.

I'm really loving Twilight, especially now with the W1 SpinFit tips - the sense of diffusion is incredible, such a wonderful distribution of sound on a expansive/holographic stage - excellent clarity and sense of air, but also a nice midrange warmth that is incredibly engaging and has lots of the all important emotive connection. From lows to highs there is excellent balance and again that wonderful sense of clarity really stands out. They aren't a detail monster but no slouch either, certainly a set you can just kick back and enjoy.

One of four sets that got to come away on holiday with me... the others are Szalayi, IE600, and S12 - I think Twilight will get most of my ear time.

Playing with beautiful synergy on P6K.

Hi all!!

I've been lurking around for some time but I guess i'm more of the shy type. Lately I've been very curious about the upcoming Subtonic Storm, anxiously waiting for its release and obvious reviews. Looking at them as that potential end game and be over. That being said, there is not that much info out there except from some impressions from those that were lucky enough to try them briefly.
Yesterday i stumbled across this and thought i would share as i see there is quite some curiosity (and well warranted!) about them.

It really depends on the sound you are seeking. Storm could be your end game and then again, it could be boring to you. Reference sound is not for everyone. It depends on what really is most important to you.

There is a lot of hype surrounding Storm and not a lot of people have heard it. We should know where it sits by the end of the year.

My reference monitor is Jewel. We will see how they compare.

At this time the Subtonic Storm is vaporware. They couldn’t even get a demo unit to SoCal CanJam this weekend. 🤭

I don’t expect to listen to this IEM until sometime next year.

I think Anima is one of next best things in my book.
I’ve tried that very same X 😃

The other thing we should acknowledge is that the impressions from CanJam London were mixed at best. It wasn't universally well received like Traillii was when it first came out. Some people really love it. Others didn't.
