I’ve heard two folks say that Amber Pearl is relative to Storm which makes me keen to try it.
Anyone think they’ll offer it as a standalone IEM one day?

I haven’t heard the OG in a long time but if my memory serves me correctly, the OG has a more “clinical” or “surgical” precision (a Cooler mentioned that it may be due to the metallic fp) - I don’t use these words pejoratively, in fact I think OG renders one of the most remarkable precision (not necessarily equating this with “reference” however one defines it) in terms of SQ. Orph still pairs wonderfully with Prestige, but I’ve decided to keep Orph with AURA. Will try Adam with Prestige insteadBeautiful! How would you describe the sound vs the OG? And that cable...
How are you liking the Aura? The impressions of this iem are so mixed. I was an owner/lover of the phonix le but some have said the le is better and others swear the aura is better. Hopefully I’ll get to hear it myself sometime.I haven’t heard the OG in a long time but if my memory serves me correctly, the OG has a more “clinical” or “surgical” precision (a Cooler mentioned that it may be due to the metallic fp) - I don’t use these words pejoratively, in fact I think OG renders one of the most remarkable precision (not necessarily equating this with “reference” however one defines it) in terms of SQ.

Afternote: I don’t fully understand the nomenclature but I guess this should be called Viking Prestige vs Viking and Viking Ragnar
I did a side-by-side with aura and Phoenix the aura was a very clear step up but I would like to hear her opinion as wellHow are you liking the Aura? The impressions of this iem are so mixed.

OG Phonix or Phonix Le? They are tuned differently..I did a side-by-side with aura and Phoenix the aura was a very clear step up but I would like to hear his opinion as well
Nothing wrong with any of these! My preference seems to be leaning to Aroma Fei Wan, better to me than jewel and any of these. I need more time with Raven. I listened to Anni some more and think it's too bright up top for me, where Fei Wan is one of the most perfectly balanced TOTL I've heard that still delivers a satisfying bass!How it sounds :
Ragnar
Storm
Annihilator 2023
Thank you.
I really want to hear the Fei Wan as I really loved the Jewel.Nothing wrong with any of these! My preference seems to be leaning to Aroma Fei Wan, better to me than jewel and any of these.

No way welp it was OG phoenix The difference was very clear the aura made the phoenix sound slowww and the dd bass was apparent in the auraOG Phonix or Phonix Le? They are tuned differently..
Oh and @metaljem77 is not a him. And After that poop comment you made, you may not get a response from them…just sayin.
I listened to Phonix and X and felt the X was far superior. Much more visceral bass (thanks DD) and a more active, bombastic sound. YMMV, and all that.How are you liking the Aura?

Phonix OG or Phonix le as they have different tunings….I listened to Phonix and X and felt the X was far superior. Much more visceral bass (thanks DD) and a more active, bombastic sound. YMMV, and all that.

Oriolus 4DD
Fei Wan
