I was bored at work and started thinking about IEMs… are there any planar + DD or planar + estat IEMs? DD + BA is so common, but havent heard about many IEMs that would combine planar driver with something else. Is that even possible or would there be some issues with the crossover?
This is becoming more popular for iems actually. There are quite a few planar or estat + dynamic driver or balanced armature (Shuoer Tapes, RHA CL2, etc.).
I’m of the opinion that it is rare to find a hybrid iem that sounds tonally balanced however. I expect this to change when newer technology advances further down the road
With the size of the drivers I wonder if it is using the planer driver for,bass and dynamic for mids… A BA in the nozzle is a semi warning for me tho. Can be harsher sounding that way.
It should be Bass - 5mm dynamic driver, Mids - 10mm planar magnetic driver, Treble - BA driver
Also interesting is that now its “Pro” version with improved bass and also option to get a different cable right away. Previously in reviews it was said that its too bright. I guess that should address those issues Price is tempting, maybe should order for lulz
