First of all, I'm sorry if I caused some confusion about the UE-11 I have. Previously (in another thread) I said the following:



And then I said this:



Regarding the my first quote: The UE-11 is a true three-way design. That means two distinct crossover points, as opposed to just one. Though the UE-10 Pro has three drivers, two of the drivers in the are the same--so the UE-10 Pro driver complement is two low, and a single high, with a single crossover point.

Regarding my second quote: Sorry for the confusion, but the UE-11 I have is a four-driver design. Though looking into the UE-11, one sees what looks like three driver boxes, one of those boxes is a dual armature piece fused together in one housing unit. I believe that one is the low driver. Then I believe the next driver up is a low/mid driver. Then the third box (containing the fourth driver) is the high.

I've been told that what I'm hearing is what the UE-11 will sound like in production--and I'll say more about its sound later.

Right now, I have to sleep.




Thanks for the clarification and stopping by to let us know the truth of the UE-11. We are all very anxious to see and hear this baby in action... at least I know I am.

If you win a pair I will personally hunt you down and steal all your headphones. That would be the straw that broke the donkeys back.

No more for The Monkey I say!

Actually, I think the razor analogy need not be what was intended. The 3 and 4 blade razors are materially superior, at least to my face. I must confess that I find that multi-driver IEMs superior as well, so the analogy seems apt to me.

These IEMs may turn out to be the best ever, but I hope we don't get the "more is better" mentality that Gillette is perpetuating.



Actually, in the case of Gilette I have to say more really is better

I'm quite happy with Schick's Quattro.. i get less cuts than the mach 3!

Are there any reviews anywhere for the UE-11 yet? I keep on checking several times a day for Jude's review.
