I don't think I have yet created an end product that sounds bad yet.
Maybe our sound is not for you. Such is life etc..
Reality is that we using this combination because it sounds better, the high frequencies are better controlled and just really nice.
I think we have been more than accommodating but I would say reserve judgement and comments until you read reviews or impressions.
I don't like the lack of certainty since I had hopes for what the atlas delta could do. Thus I preface with the reason for my discontent.
I wanted to express these emotions because I know I am not the only one having them.
If you are receptive then you will understand the reason for this communication... My words are not attacking, though they may be challenging. My words have an insecurity to them that is significantly prevalent in other individual's posts. This is a bit of the ripple from these changes you were aware would have this effect. It must be expressed.
It's just that you built this company off the that delta sound. I haven't seen such a high percentage of positive impressions about any of your models since the delta vII... And the language used to describe the delta vII has not been paralleled by other IEM's you have released.
I just hope you're not throwing something away/ willing to ditch a beautiful sound signature... willing to ditch customers made loyal off that sound signature... I hope there is control in this movement of yours, I hope your momentum, which is necessary for this progression of your company, isn't abandoning what worked before... Isn't abandoning who supported before.
Yes it may be an older model, but that was probably, IMO, your timeless sound. A sound signature with a tonality you can always count on going back to and I will be so bold as to say, that this analysis is very true. It is not just a personal opinion, but an observation of people's reactions to the delta vII... to the release of the previously purported atlas delta.
You don't like the, "in BOB we trust" and such cult behavior... that's good. I just hope you are not willing to exclude customers made loyal off your original success, due to expressing valid emotions to valid uncertainty many share. Just because you acknowledge ripples that will be made by the changes you make, doesn't mean the ripples won't be expressed/won't happen. And if you are using exclusionary language to defend against this expression of uncertainty that many share... Than maybe it is getting a little too cultish... even for me.
I of course will give you the benefit of the doubt... It is apparent why... I want that sound.
Just please understand... The way you executed these changes were going to effect others negatively with uncertainty, and discontent. Thus is the nature of such change. Not for everybody, but for many. And the only way to appease that in those, and not just myself, is to come through successfully. I hope you do. I want you to succeed. I want to hear that sound that built the foundations of your company and the foundations of many supporters of your business.
I guess... do the best you can. Try not to leave people behind.
I may not have liked your other IEM's, but i did recommend the delta vII and atlas delta to anyone and everyone.... I hope you can understand.
