Holy moly, just received my new EJ07 an hour ago. Coincidence?
Why did I buy it? Because I wanted a wired Huawei Freebuds Pro 2 since I got the buds and of course all the positive reviews.
This response graph resonates perfectly and positively with my state of mind or emotional state (can’t find the correct english word for it 
):
First impressions are stick-your-lips-out good.

Dame, Brown, and Tatum? Maybe if they still had Udoka
Do I get to tag along on the Cape trip? It’d be great to have the legend tell me I’m an idiot for whatever dumb take I’m on by then

I’m a born New Yorker but my mom’s family moved to MA from Texas after WW II. And I’ve lived in Boston since I was 17.
So I’m the worst of both worlds lol

@hawaiibadboy @GooberBM a big BBQ with the fams?! I’m absolutely in.
Also, goobs, I must have forgotten you’re from NY originally…
It’s absolute blasphemy here in the Bean but, I’ve been obsessed with NY since I was a kid. My dream is to live there at least one day… don’t tell anyone. My dad gives me shit for it to this day

The Olina was built around a good engine. The Tanch 02. That was a controversial thing at the time but it sold very very well based on buyer feedback and was the start of porting midfi to near budget-fi.
Cuz we can
We all know the markups. Companies charge $300 (for example) cuz…they can.
Dunu is an exception as they invest in driver development and have nice cabling.
Most companies are not like Dunu or Moondrop.
Kailua was an LCP then a CNT and Finaly a DLC /Titanium. Clearly sounded the best (pun intended)

@hawaiibadboy could you do a comparison between the Maestro SE vs Mest mk3 vs Prestige LTD?
Which is the overall winner, or maybe one of your spider graphs would be pretty sweet!
My opinion, my library, grain of salt…
Noteworthy…
Bass Fatfreq is most pronounced but not blowing out mids but husking up vocals a tad.
MKIII sounds really tame in comparison
.
.
.
Mids MKIII and it’s unique upper mids (ear gain) are hyper detailed and helped by polite bass to make a very clean almost analytical replay. Classical/Acoustic…MKIII is the pick
.
.
.
Treble The Fatfreq is just a beast. It balances out the hammer bass with some really excellent treb tuning. Fatfreq is famous for bass but no way they sell so hot with audiophiles with anything less than spot on treb. Not hot, not dark…perfect.
.
.
.
Tonality LTD is a pick I could get with but being able to go from WU TANG to OZZY to Pink Floyd’s “Mother” without even thinking about turning something up or down? Maestro SE… That’s a winner.
.
.
None are bang for buck sets

Awesome man! Appreciated.
I’ve been listening to the Maestro SE and enjoying.
The Mk3 and the LTD are on my list but definitely gonna need to demo and not blind buy. It seems like I may end up liking the MSE over them anyway.

Multi-DD sets, using different compositions to maximize the positives of each is too smart of an idea for it to only be catching on now.
I’m more curious about Kailua than I have been about a collab in a while. So kudos for that!

Definitely demo before buying unless you have a Money tree in your yard
