Are you sure ? I think its a true 6 core cable
I wonder if one of the “internationally-acclaimed sound engineers” is KopiOkaya, I thought his work on BA5 and V90 was excellent.https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001045196019.html
The TRN VX aliexpress page is up. Shell looks quite futuristic looking + seashell like haha. V shaped set based on graph? Might be near basshead too!
I see it the same way. I really like the BA5, including its BA bass. They aren't making any claims about the DD material beyond its magnets (i.e. graphene/CNT/etc.), so I'm concerned that it will be more bass quantity but less quality. The DD of lower-priced IEMs are usually not very impressive, in my experience.A bit steep in price indeed for the terminator killer.
But recently TRN have great job done a great IEM like v90 and BA5. TeRNinator vX is coming to fight Terminator zsX!
Probably not going to be early adopter like I did before since I have too many sidegrades on this range. Wonder if they can match with NX7 Pro in that price.
That marketing FR cant be trusted at all based on experience with TRN marketing graph, unlike KZ marketing graph that still have similarity with real FR. Hopefully they have forwarded mids but i doubt it, looks going to be V shaped with much details.
The shell design is kinda cool IMHO, love the Black Knight

That design really speaks to me as well.
I think the acceptable expectation is that they should be good for the price (relative to other chi-fi). Relative to the standard fare of Shure and Etymotic they are already giant killers in terms of how much value they offer (e.g V90 vs Se215), but relative to even mid-fi chi-fi they are going to be lacking a little, though can make up for it with unique attributes. I like them for what they are, and because they can give me unusual / specialist tunings I wouldn’t normally go for (BA5 is a great example of that).I like the design with the armatures radiating around the dynamic and keeping similar distance in the path but then they go and stuff two in front. I bet those two are there to give it the V on the high end. Not gonna complain since a cheaper earphone does these sort of things. Gonna settle to $50-ish range so not expensive but hard to imagine there won't be some issue or oddity that persist in these designs. I like how they tout they took two years to develop the inner structure. "Blah blah" years designing and 10, 15, 20 years experienced guy doing tuning yet they will still end up with the good but just missed it sort of thing. Anyone else thinking this is how they do it and want you to buy the next one and then the next one or some still buying into they are gonna get there one day and make a "giant killer"?

What are some of the mid fi chi fi you think are good? I don't know as many of them besides like Moondrop s8, blessing 2, and fiio fh7
