I just got home to them, sound impressions to follow in a day or two. The whole presentation, from top to bottom though, just exudes “premium flagship”. Kinera Imperial Loki “Emerald” aka International tuning, in the Monochrome colorway with no logos:
Every last piece of the IEMs and Cable that could be scratched is shrinkwrapped or has a pull-off film. They REALLY want this to get to you in a pristine condition. Also, the cable is a very reasonable design but the Y-split looks like you could beat a man to death with it. Doesn’t really weigh all that much though, which is ideal.
Edit: cross-post from a group chat on immediate impressions, since the inevitable “Storm or these” question came up lol:
Just popped them in for some Yung Bae, holy shit these are engaging and the bass is so satisfying. Too early to call between these and Storm to pick one, but man, I think it just comes down to taste tbh. These are obviously a better value although neither one is in any kind of “price consideration” category. Also worth noting that Storm is like driving full-size insensitive planars where these are as easy to drive as MEST mkII was aka runs to deafening levels on literally anything as a source.Storm is more like monitors and a blended sub or two in a treated studio, these are big Monkey Coffin PA speakers at a BBQ, but with enough finesse to fool you into thinking you’re in a concert hall with live musicians.
