Not single Hunter, Master 6 or Air has been delivered


 
As far as I remember, there was a issue with the screw supplier for the Master 6 so this has likely caused a delay, and the Hunters had to be heat treated manually before they could be packaged. Once they get these issues sorted I am sure plenty of people will start receiving them. I am not sure what the issue with the Air is although I vaguely remember some issue with the volume control or something.

What did you compare them with? Amped or unamped? Just trying to get a better understanding what they are like and their overall characteristics. Over the years l learned to see that people here like different sound and flavors. 
I like clear, neutral sound signature while some may feel it's boring. Anything too energetic and bassy l find fatigue. Fit is also something l would like to know more about.
Judging from the photos both the Icarus III and the Master are pretty much taking over the whole concha. I know this might be a hit and miss for some but can you tell us about the isolation too?

I can't really compare them to any high end iem's due to the fact that I've always been the guy that buys something cheap (I use them at the gym and wear them on my crotch rocket) with the expectations of throwing them away after a few months of use. I recently started getting serious about music again (back to making my own music) and thought that it might be time to invest in something nice. Oh, you asked about whether I listened to them through an amped source...no, just my LG V10 phone which has the "Hi-Fi DAC" function which made all of the iem's on display sound nice and loud.
I'm not really one for the terminology on here but I can tell you that as far as sound goes I listen mainly to heavy stuff, like Korn, Sevendust, older 80's metal like Queensryche, Lynch Mob, Dokken etc and after going through the tuning filters I settled on the red ones. Perfect amount of bass, clear mids all while allowing vocals to shine through seamlessly. Zero distortion even at the highest volume on my loud ass phone.
The fit on all three are very comfortable as well. Once I threw a pair of large Kombi Tips on them (which was done by the sweet young lady at the booth) and stuck them in my ears I immediately noticed how all of the crowd noise outside of my head almost disapeared.
After listening to all three I was immediately a fan of the brand. If I could choose only one Trinity iem that was there that day I'd go with the Icarus III. Those reminded me of the last time I stood in a recording studio and after taking a few minutes to walk around the room finding that "sweet spot" where you want to stand and NOT move away from because the sound was just that good. And I could wear those things all day long. So lightweight and comfortable and let's not forget the finish....they're almost like jewelry.

To a Head-Fi member at least. I figured, since if they had the thread would have blown up with images.
Oh well. Hopefully the right channel on my Meze 11 Beo doesn't completely die before I get the PM6. If it does I will have to move on to a sub-par solution for a bit, until they either arrive or my patience finally runs out and I do something drastic like buy a Campfire Audio Vega.

EDIT: WARNING - NOT A FINISHED HUNTER! JUST A DEMO. Please don't get excited. I'd delete the picture, but I can't delete those who copied it into posts afterwards so not much point.
 
Nothing personal lol, just couldn't resist

Thanks for this awesome bit of feedback! Really kind of kicking myself that I didn't order the Icarus III

Kasabian / where did the love go, with fiio x7/am3 in my ears as i speak :grinning: the masters shine with good recordings, smooth, detailed, lovely layering and the thing that drawed me to them in the first place ( through sabre) soooo musical , makes other iems i have bought ( not naming names ) at twice the price seem, well flat!
Please dont give up guys , i am in no way connected with trinity at all! Just dont want you guys to miss out on what i feel is a bargain/ sonething special.
All sound is subjective and you might not hear the same as me ,as the guy who went to can jam and tried master and icarus said " immediately a fan of the brand " ...i bought/heard sabres and thought i gotta to try the master and then the Hunter if this is what they can do with £100 iem.

To all , understand frustration and respect which ever you choose.
