I’m not a native English speaker, so everything will at least already be known to both Turii Ti and Singularity owners; to my ears, both models are
apples and oranges - both in terms of wearing ergonomics and in initial impressions
Firstly, the body material is completely different, which leaves an imprint on the signature: the aluminum chamber in Singularity gives a
very clear articulation of bass, which immediately extends to the entire FR and from which you surprisingly don’t get tired - it’s almost the same light sound (without touching the low frequencies ) which I happened to hear in the beryllium Dunu Luna! I can’t say that the treble sounded excessive on my source - although I’ve read about this from owners, especially in synergy with A&K - but it’s definitely on the dark side, as if a “do not disturb” sign was hung on the doorknob and you don’t hear the annoying knocking; I seem to have seen Sngl from
@MatW together with
Eros 1AE, but due to the fact that my experience pushed me against this cable in the previous pairing - Eclipse+ErosS - I decided to follow the ET path and took
Raphael, because it smoothes out the upper and brings the mids to the forefront: in short, my instincts did not let me down))) I clearly heard the difference with the stock cable, and the subtle changes that Raph made made me feel the strengthened mids and smooth structure of the Sngl signature; I agree with the discovery that these IEMs have a certain
graininess to them, as if the sound is Kodak light-sensitive film that is nice to see on the big screen - Sngl as a quite tight IEM (it's made me crazy when I couldn't understand what gain is more preferable with my P6P - L or H) with too short nozzle for my deep insertion eartips fit has the picturesque image but lacks the resolution (and maybe depth?) seen in titanium Turii
Secondly, illustration of my thought about note weight of titanium
(copied from the previous post): I’ve had Eclipse for a little less than six months: it all comes down to assembling the setup; If
@Scuba Devils doesn’t let me lie, then the MA has a slow passive speaker that gives sparse bass and generally reacts in a peculiar way to lowering the tone - what I mean is that I certainly liked them! I listened to mine with an EA Eros S cable, which gave a good spatial shift across the stage and a rise in the upper-mids; NJ has a completely different sound, due to the material of both the body and the camera itself - aluminum - with
fast transient attacks and tactile lows, which works ideally on electronic beats, industrial samples and hip-hop loops, in other cases the bass evokes a non-Newtonian fluid (variable viscosity dependent on stress) - it all depends on the tempo, but one thing I can say for sure is that Singularity
plays more lightly and piercingly in an effective manner than MA
Thirdly, Turii Ti was initially positioned as the most widescreen western epic movie (pardon my 2nd cinematic metaphor), in
which crystal timbres stand apart, and the silver cable oversaturates the treble to such an extent that IMHO it is impossible to listen for more than an hour, but nevertheless, Ti has some of the best upper-mids that I have heard in the last couple of years - I won’t even mention Sngl here, they are masterful at other things! I also noticed that in Sngl the rough edges in the recording appear more clearly, they take you through the melody like on a roller coaster and now you are again standing in line for a ticket
, on Ti everything is more linear, like on a cable car-cabriolet with a silver Colt in a holster - that is, the first for shenanigans, and the second for a real bank robbery
in addition, I can say that I first saw Ti with a copper PW cable at
@Kiats - it surprised me, I decided to repeat: indeed, the bass has become more powerful, like a Winchester, the energy has increased - later I connected
FTS... I became interested in the shielding effect, because until you try it yourself, you won’t know) I didn’t recognize them at all! Ti turned into full-size headphones with bass more prominent than PPT (Dita), and the height of the sound wall extending beyond the perception of DD as such - I will immediately make a reservation that the synergy only worked with Ti
The conclusion to all of the above is the following: despite the superficial similarity of the graphs,
Ti and Sngl meet different musical tasks, and their narrowly focused use can reveal both disadvantages and advantages: each has its own source, its own discography, its own eartips, but I find Ti more universal, than Sngl in relation to my sound material, and accordingly I prefer them a little more than the latter, that's it
