Aegis should be bassier/warmer than Legion. If Aegis is thin and shouty, you have a lemon
Measurements aren’t everything but they sure would suggest otherwise, especially if people are sensitive 4-6k
looks like coupler variation to me rather than the iem its not that drastic.
I’m super sensitive to 4-6kHz. There is some elevation there in the Aegis, adding clarity and edge, but not sibilance. If you do things wrong like not using correct tips, an ill fit and subpar power and source, it can become a bit too pronounced.
But again, under right conditions, it only serves to help give definition and clarity to the mids, cutting through the warmth down low.
Chi-Fi be Chi-Fi’ing. But you know how that is: Paying more doesn’t always get you more (except for when it does).
Also micro planar vs EST treble…
I think hbb said in his review that he prefers the Punch Audio Martello over his collab. Is there an actual difference that you notice?
I took it that he meant considering the significant price difference, but not in absolute terms.
Also EST>Planar for treble.
MARTILO is more energetic and less bassy, not as smooth but more “fun” in a way
Oh damn, it looks really good
I do get a bit nervous when 4-6kHz is the highest point on the pinna Definitely nice and warm/full through the mids though.
I think you’re gonna enjoy this one @VIVIDICI_111 , though I would personally put it more in the “mid-low” volume category (my usual volume):
I should just get the top pro & call it a day
