Just finished up a pair for @pkcpga. I have to say, this transitional grain is gorgeous. I would normally grade the top burl higher than the bottom straight grain, but the character provided by the transition is second to none. A truly amazing chunk of wood.
 
This is what I do, guys!

They look amazing can't wait to see and listen to them, see you Thursday. I'm very happy I listened to your wood selection suggestion.

Well done, Luke. I really like that aesthetic.

Here's a plot twist for you guys. It's not always about burl. Exhibition grade wood comes in many figures. This one is straight grain, courtesy of the brilliant Arizona Ironwood.

Buckeye universal.  After he posted the last pictures with that orange grain, with the discount and then he changed his return policy, I had to.  These and my Nova's will have to do a head to head comparison to see who is the winner!!!!  Atlas for the bass, Nova for everything else and where will these fit in?

I have the buckeye burl universal. These put out some serious high quality through every frequency, where they may fit in, is that they might replace the others altogether lol. They are very versatile, good purchase

I've had mine since Thursday now, I've been playing them with the dfb or my grado amp. With the dfb these buds have some serious bass for balance armature IEM's. They sound warm but still have good extension on the highs. Female vocals are very good and most male vocals are also very good. Only time I've heard a little bit of a hidden male voical is when their is a lot of bass going on and the male voice is very deep then sometimes the male voice falls a little behind all the bass. I did switch the cables from the stock one to my stock cable from my nobles and with the nobles stock cable cleans up the bass and deeper male voices do separate much better even if one is not more present than the other, the more complex or deeper bass does not overshadow the voice. So far the aria are very enjoyable and offer something my Noble savant's can not produce, deeper bass while still having very nice detailed mids and highs. Breath sounds are more present and rapid symbol sounds have a truer sound rather than a clicking sound. Great job Luke in creating a Iem that has good bass and still has great detail present. I do recommend using a DAC with the Aria, it does make a big difference in tonal range and giving the Aria a much more open sound verse playing the Aria straight through your iPhone.
