No, looks like they took all the feedback and came out with a way to appeal to both crowds.
bass terminates at 200Hz instead of 150. If I am reading it right?

Oh man - the feedback Iâd heard about Nimbus was that the tuning differed. This is one heck of a contra If the BA bass sounds like DD bass now⌠then wow!
Iâm still happy and excited by listening to my current set, and itâs been months so far, so I donât need to try these, but I know they sound great if they have Lokahi tuning + proper bass timbre. I canât believe they achieved such close tuning.
My favorite warm-tuned IEMs ever.

It was a lag with tool updating
Still a tighter bass than the epic N3A

I think they have been almost constantly in back order since they released the OG ver.

Well fortunately where I live Linsoulâs Lazada shop keep a couple listed in stock(just checked and they have 4 of each Monarch and Clairvoyance) because the platform doesnât allow pre-orders, and theyâre required to ship them within a limited timeframe otherwise itâll automatically refund the purchase and affect their seller stats. Though they do keep their listings very limited compared to their official website or AE, so probably gotta ask them in chat to open stocks for a particular item if they have it in stock.
Itâs how I got my Oracle in 5 days from the 9/9 sale for $500 including taxes, though got unlucky with a problematic pair, hopefully Iâll get them back next week. Does Linsoul even do express shipping for returning repaired or replacement units?

Audio demo channels is such a rarity in the music gear in general. Danâs channel is a gem.

Zplot also does way before Dan but mostly for budget iems.

Demo is the most useless thing a reviewer can do.
Youâre listening to some iem, on a youtube, on your headphonesâŚ

I really enjoy this channel and find it quite beneficial. Yes sound demoâs are not 100% due to limitations with the mic, room, yt compression, etc⌠But I have found the way this channel does the source material, chart, and then an A->B comparison it highlights how the two speakers will contrast.
Then when I went to listen to the same monitors in a demo room I was able to draw very similar conclusions to their performance.

You can easly tell if an iem is darker or brighter by listening demos. They are not that useless.

You can see that from the graph too. So again, itâs useless apart from that itâs a clickbait.
Any serious reviewer should have measurement tools unless you have IEC microphone built in your ears like Dsnuts on HFI has.

I think it fills out a space that was kinda empty. He found a way to distinguish himself. It is more a way to open up the conversation. Even himself warn that the demos is not the end of it all.
If you donât like it, donât listen to it, thats it. No need to bash on him or the people that do like the concept.
I like is take on it.

Might be useless in some situations but in terms of character, itâs a good point reference. Itâs not accurate yes, but it tells a story how the iem behaves. Which, IMO, determine purchase choice. Might not work for you, but works for me.

Totally agree with this statement. I know how Tea sounds and in sound demo it doesnât sound like how I hear with my ears but I can understand the character. So, gives me another dimension to compare with other iems and some ideas how others can sound.

Information, even if its not accurate, its still useful. Efforts to make the sound demo in the channel is appreciated.
