Ohhh my goodness …. You must be in heaven good sir.
Yup. 
The DIVA bass was what prompted me to take a chance on the Maestro SE to hope for a tribrid with more energy and …bang…got it.
Bought DIVA to keep and explain the journey to the Maestro SE cuz it is very relevant
Welp, guess it’s time to not buy much but basic necessities for a while. 
I think either of the colored jelly beans are worthy of premium cashola but I prefer the blue …pill
If that does not scream black friday I don´t know what else does! 
or did you paint them?
All metal chassis (Shell/cap)
Different tuning 
Now that’s interesting, I’ve been looking for an excuse to get a planar for a while now… The original seemed neat, but I hated the purple, so this is already an improvement.
x HBB version? (Don’t say if you can’t yet)
i think i found my first planar
It looks pretty dope. Sounds nice too (always a very very good thing 
)
Gotta compare this with the Timeless AE.
do you have a date yet?
Chris needs to plug in IER Z1R again 
Love everything about it - color scheme, different tuning? Wonder what has changed but if I had to guess - +3db bass and -2db gain or somewhere in the treble 
Imho it really does not need more bass, even though i love bass. Amount and quality is really nice already.
If it could need anything that would be a highshelf of 1-2db (depending on genre and mastering) at arround 8K to give it just a tad more sparkle
I ended up with 1db more at 8K and Called the EQ Profile “Zetian Wu Sparkle” and TANGZU should do the same with the IEM…Black and Sparkly Edition
Let us see what Mr. HBB has in store for us - I personally think just the new color scheme and cable are a nice little edition. If the price were to be the same, I think it gives people who haven’t purchased yet a nice option between the two.
When people describe vocals as being “forward” do people generally mean that the vocal seems to originate further FROM your face or that the singer seems to have made a step forward TOWARDS your face?
I think some people use the same words but mean the opposite.
It’s been bugging me for a long time.
