Bad Guy Good Audio Rankings and stuff (under construction) (Part 1)

The only reason I wish I’d picked faster shipping is so I can sell my Oxygen sooner! I’ll keep it for some basic comparisons when the Olina comes though. It’s staying on my desk most of the time purely due to fit frustrations.

The Olina looks like such a beautiful hefty pebble from a stream or shore.

Olina really looks sick and overshadows with her appearance much more expensive IEMs. Fantastic color choice! Your photo is very nice. :tropical_drink:

I can do It’s a long steel chrome shelving system. Lotta garbage. 1 in 20 IEM has a chance at being popular…price and performance. The rest is garbage.

You are more than welcome…i have you to thank for pretty much my entire iem journey and with the Olina, i will be out (though i’ll lurk on the forum natch :slight_smile: )
I have few random sets floating about (L4’s, T2+, P1, Voyager 3; L2s; T3; YBF-ISS014) but ive finally settled with;-

The Monarch Mkii (my end game); Timeless; S12 (cos, why not, and i was curious to compare), my trusty S8F (though i may have borked that set when trying to cast some custom tips :frowning: ) and Ikko OH10 which the Olina may very well replace.

All on your recs so muchas gracias amigo.

Time now to spend some money on upgrading my Stax set up.

Damn, got everything prepared for 2PM local time, dollars transferred to Revolt upfront so to be fast. Then shit hit the fan at my work and had war room meeting around that time.
I managed to get out of it to do “important call” and you got me surprised with this Tripowin Noire. Quick research - I would take it as well. 1st payment - unsuccessful. 2nd payment - unsucceful. Realized that the dollars are more expensive now, I can’t afford it from revolut.
Damn, I took IEM only, so to be in first 100 buyers - 50th or so spot that was.

Hype!

Even got a blessing from my wife when I told her the story of the Collab, postcards, lyrics and so one, and usually she hates even when I buy some tips for 10$!

@hawaiibadboy just bought one too :slight_smile: I wasn’t going to (already own O2), but your video convinced me. I really appreciate how honest you were about the issue with the Mele and how you offered to personally facilitate reconciliation between the buyer and the seller. Btw, I never had an issue with my Mele, but I appreciate your response.

I also like that filters are included in stock packaging, on the off chance that some still have issues. Again, it shows you/Tripowin listened to the customers. Dig it :raised_hands::raised_hands:

@hawaiibadboy Pre-ordered the Olina, approximately order #106. Thanks for all the advice you have given on your YouTube channel, and for having such a mature public voice. Hope you enjoy seeing the result of all your work on these collab iems!

Looking forward to Olina, Preordered. Past the first 500 unfortunately.

Holy cow, past 500 already?? Damn, that’s a big success

I also purchased the Mele and now the Olina. I was going to pass on the Olina but I appreciate what you do for the community and I love your tuning and how it applies to my library as well. Also your passion and your rational explanations in your reviews are appreciated.

I purchased the Thieaudio Oracle based on your review earlier this year and I have never regretted it.

I was checking curiously on Linsoul some 30 min prior to launch and it is already live preorder…immediately placed #order no 10 i guess. Thanks BGGAR.

That counter was only up to 100 units. You are still good (it’s under 200 currently).
