Great impressions! Sounds like the Mecha nails that warm, musical vibe without overdoing it. Love how Dita keeps their tuning purposeful—even if it’s not the flashiest, it sounds like it delivers where it counts. Definitely curious to try it now, especially as a contrast to Project M!

man i see this and my faith in humanity dies again. I mean are people nuts to actually flip a gear or try to sell it at a premium just because it is no longer available? I wonder if anyone would buy it at that absurd price.
There’s apparently a reserve set for the auction that hasn’t been met so I’m guessing the seller’s hoping for someone who has extreme FOMO…
He have already got bids just over retail. 
It’s no different to those who buy the special releases on Record Store Day then list them on Discogs/similar sites.
I say this as I look at my unopened Crinear meta 
, just not got round to opening it yet
Looks like Prisma is back on the menu, boys!
Two new co-flagships are up for preorder, the Lumen and the Lux!

The site style reminds me of the earliest Microsoft websites created in MS Word. Remember those?

Here are my thoughts after a couple weeks with the Lime Ears Terra. It’s a $1200 IEM with one 7mm titanium-diaphragm dynamic driver, four Knowles BAs, and one Knowles RAU tweeter BA with a 4-way crossover packed into aluminium shells. Thanks to AudioGeek EU for the tour!
I liked these a lot. The Terra has a tastefully V-shaped sound signature that manages to avoid the common pitfall of recessed mids. Instead, the mids are just slightly set back in the mix and sound very natural. This is one of those sets that worked excellently with each new genre I threw at it. a true all-rounder for my preferences.
Terra is engaging and detailed, with nice separation and good sense of space. The bass has great kick while remaining tight and clean, with a fast, elastic quality. While not a massive subbass rumble monster, it maintains a good balance between mid and subbass.
Compared to the Kiwi Ears Punch, male vocals have less body, but they also sound more natural. For hip-hop and electronic music, I do prefer the Punch’s more bombastic bass tuning. Vocals have a bit of distance in contrast to more intimate tunings like the Letshuoer Cadenza 12. On busy passages like double kick drums, the bass doesn’t quite match the separation of the Cadenza 12, though it’s still very good. The subbass doesn’t dig quite as deep as the CraftEars Omnium or Kiwi Ears Punch.
Fit was a little tricky. The shells are light and their shape works well, but the nozzles felt right on the border of being too wide for my ears, despite measuring less than 6.5mm. Still, I could listen for hours without issues.
The Lime Ears Terra is easy to recommend if you’re looking for a fun, engaging, well-balanced set that performs great across the board. Well done, Lime Ears!

Well, the inevitable has happened. Once I got a few sets into the arsenal and started listening with regularity, I started experiencing pain in my ear canals and deep headaches. And I was having fit issues with the right side, as I suspected I would. This has nothing to do with the IEMs themselves, this is all on me and my surgically butchered ears. It’s a real shame, too, because I was really enjoying the technology. But it’s just not meant to be. I will keep the sets I have and will use them occasionally, but the main vehicle for late-night listening will have to revert back to headphones. And that’s OK. At least I found out now before I went too far down the rabbit hole.

Tried open back iems? They may still work for you. But if its just from the insertion, then thats still a nope.
Tried earbuds?

I really think it comes down to the insertion. I tried buds but the right side always falls out. Oh well, I’m just damaged goods! 
What buds and what shells?
They were both like OEM buds that came with devices. One was from a phone, and the other was from a Pioneer XM player. So probably not the best quality etc. I couldn’t tell you what kind of shells they were as I know next to nothing about buds. I do have one pair that actually fit pretty well and sound reasonably good which I still have. I can take a picture when I get home so you can see.
I also have these Soundpeats wireless buds that worked pretty well.
They sound great but again, the right side won’t stay secure and I’m constantly fidgeting with it.

Yeah in that case you should give the modern ones a try.
Try the Vido/Yincrow X6 (MX500 shells) and the Qian39.

I will look into it. Thank you for the input. I made an edit to my previous post that shows the last set I tried.

Certainly not the most tips in the hobby but in the past 4 months I’ve amassed this collection that doesn’t include the numerous that I sent back. I too have some ear canal issues and find that a larger tip, either M or L depending on the IEM and the tip, work best for me. A shallow fit otherwise the canal becomes angry. Both sides, no surgery.
The right tips have been key to my continuation and finding a proper, comfortable fit.
Upper left - Spinfit W1 M and L and Omni M
Upper right - Tri Draco tips, wide bore and Kiwi Ears something that work to nicely tame treble, a Fiio in there too, meh, some TWS tips in there too 
Middle left - NiceHCK that came with Himalaya - white ones fit me perfect
Middle right - Penon ePro EP01 - L is best, M is OK. Fantastic all day wear, vocal forward
Blue ones were ‘free’ with Penon EP01 - junk. should toss.
