iāve seen the penon serial mentioned on head-fi before, and it was being hyped due to just using DDs and doing that really well, but then there werenāt any reviews from external sources ā¦ so i never really bothered looking into it more. itās nice to see that head-fi wasnāt full of shit on this one

Bought mine. Very satisfied.
Best 3DD implementation I have heard and among the best in its $$ range with a library like mine.

Was there a specific question I missed? Here are my initial Serial impressions: IEM discussion thread (Part 1) - #2352 by thoohil
What changed over time is that they play more stringent than fresh out of the box.
My most expensive IEMs are the the Dunu EST 112 and the Moondrop Variations and I favor the Serial any day of the week.
While tribrids are technically well thought out and executed I came to realize that itās kind of exhausting for me to listen to them for longer sessions. They demand too much brain cpu load. Itās hard to describe.
Planars are similiar but still unmatched for electronic music sessions.
@hawaiibadboy Great Serial review! I can subscribe to all points made. I was wondering how far totl IEMs are from a pearl like the Serial?

oops sorry, not sure why that didnāt link properly. Hereās a question from @nymz that I thought you could answer as well:
Ah ok, Cymbals sound perfectly fine. Clear, not piercing and not recessed. I did a quick comparison with the S12. Reverb and decay are actually better on the Serial.
Favorite Cymbals Meinl Byzance Vintage Sand Medium 18" 
Same with female vocals Fleetwood Mac - Dreams, perfectly dosed imho.
Itās hard to find anything negative about these.

I have a Tea 2 and never heard the original. Also, own the Hook X and Serial. I find them all to be great choices. But, between all three Iād have to give it to the Hook X if only given one choice. Itās just has a special sound to it. Besides the planar I think the open back design helps it shine. I definitely notice I difference if I cover the openings.
