Question: What 3 IEMs most own your heart right now (today, not necessarily "all time")?
I’ll just be voting “New” IEMs I’ve heard this month that I really found enjoyable.

1) Viking Ragnar (This is extremely source dependent and I honestly almost sold it. But boi… It’s just amazing paired with the TAZ.)
2) Fourté Blanc (This was just so much more enjoyable to me than the normal version. But with the arrival of the IEM below, I’m not sure if it’s gonna be able to hold its spot for long once I thoughroughly compare the two.)
3) Trifecta (I was honeslty, ready to say this IEM is “ded” but boi, did it surprise me yesterday. It definitely has its own issues but issues I could live with. I just really have to see how it compares to the Blanc, Z1R, and SK to see where it’ll be in my top 10. But so far, I say, I like more than the SM overall.)

Cross posting from the FiEar thread:
It's a bespoke 6 wires cable from Nightjar Acoustics, thanks to @efftee collaboration !
It sounds like the Aqua but without its stiffness :relaxed:

That’s gorgeous man!

Where do you place the DC Ti right now? What’s the most “similar” IEM/s to it that you’ve heard?

Same thing happened to me when I heard it at CanJam. I went in expecting to hate it but it ended up being my favorite thing at the whole show.

Xe6 x11
Jewel x8
Traillii x8

I love how Traillii is still #3

I love how XE6 is getting so much love. I had a love hate with that IEM. When it was good, it was goood.

My favourites are the top three, but there is so much I have not heard.

#1 Traillii
#2 XE6
#3 Jewel 💎
