Noice!! I really wonder if it’s actually Beryllium coated and if that actually does something to the sound production lol
I had it last September waaay back. Pink one.
CHU is a much better way to spend $20

Oh wow did you get one of the prototypes for feedback? I wonder if they tweaked anything for the final release. I think this just launched, so they’ve been sitting on it for a while then
Oh, that’s the T1plus. T1S just released. I wonder who names all these lol.
Regarding Chu, I have a guess we are both about to make moondrop very happy lol.

They must make a tiny profit margin for the Chu, which means they need to move a metric ton in sales to make much money. They just did a giveaway of 100 units, so if they’re giving away 100+ units, they must be aiming for 1000s in actual sales!!

Thor Mjölnir MK2 first 30 minutes impressions:
Source: Realme GT Neo 2
Dongle DAC: Cayin Ru6 (3.5mm)
More detailed than I had anticipated.
Very satisfying note weight.
Coherency is of course great.
Bass slam is 
yet it isn’t obnoxious or overdone.
Something in the upper mids seems slightly energized but probably isn’t a problem.
Can’t wait to try it balanced through my laptop, that extra power will improve everything.

I love my Hook for that magic special sauce. No idea how they do it but it’s sooo different from my Timeless and I love it.

I just installed a Tanya filter on the nozzles of the Mjölnir MK2.
That tamed the spitty nature of the upper mids/lower treble.
The sound is now so powerful and so dynamic with just the right amount of energy in mids and treble to balance out the bass.
Also this is definitely an amazing set for low to medium listening as mentioned above.
Edit: disregard Tanya filter… Took a few songs to acclimate to the changes and it kills too much of the air unfortunately.

I didn’t realize I’d had them so long already!
Retrying the small ePro tips (deeeep insertion) after a while away, and it gives a phenomenal warm lush sound, incredible. Rumbly bass!
I’ve been using the A07 style tips most recently, and I do love that for a slightly more detailed and balanced tone, that still delivers a good kick in the bass. It pulls back on the warmth somewhat in comparison.
I think tip-rolling the Serial is enough to be my happy place. The Vernus can be my “complementary tuning” option, I’ll see how that goes.
When I don’t notice how long it’s taking me to do the dishes, that’s the IEM I spend time with.
I absolutely love the Serials.
The shells are a bonus. I find it hard to settle on a set sonically if I find the shells ugly or boring. I kind of want my EDC to be something I love the look of too. Serials check that box.

I saw you were getting rid of your canons and I was very tempted but I think I’m all in on the serial as my next iem

Got my Jewel (or my Sapphires as I call them) today. They will share head-time with the Z1R. The Traillii go back to their daddy.

Those are absolutely stunning. The price tag scares the hell out of me, but regardless, lovely set!

You are right about the price. Nothing justifies it. Fully exaggerated. They sound amazing, though.

Shamelessly, I can say that if I had that kind of coin, I’d definitely be buying sets of this price point, don’t get it mistaken. At that point, it’s not about the sound, it’s about the exclusivity of the set. I work in the luxury automotive space and I can get it, trust me.

I absolutely did not take your first post as an attack/offense of any kind. Please don’t justify yourself.
The Jewel are a tremendous sounding set of earphones, but I happily could live with the IER-Z1R, which I find more adequate for some genre or even the Timeless, which I adore since day 1.
I am deep down in the rabbit hole, but it’s cozy down there.

The rabbit hole is indeed cozy, my friend. I definitely don’t want to come off as someone who judges anyone who drops that kind of coin on a set! I get looks from my friends circle for spending what I spent on my Monarchs, little do they know that’s literally the tip of the iceberg 
The timeless is absolutely a phenomenal set. If I wasn’t so into this journey and hobby, I probably would of stopped there, but I had to get a taste of what the top is all about. I’m happy I did. I’m settled for sure. I definitely live vicariously through you guys!
