In Ear Monitors

Got them today.



Sound great to my ears. But my ears are old, so YMMV.
For instance, I really can’t tell the difference with the impedance adapter inline. Fit is good. Lots of tips, as you can see. Wore them for an hour without ear fatigue.

To me it was a bit duller. Like pressing the Dolby button. I know you know what that is on a cassette player, :joy:

I’ve seen people joking that the real product is the impedance adapter and you get some free headphones with it :laughing:

Cool! A choice of tips turns out to be the best feature on in-ears :slight_smile:

No, I’m really happy with my original timeless for now so I’m sticking with them. Let me know what you think of them when you get them :slightly_smiling_face:

I can adjust to most tunings so the biggest thing to me is fit and the timeless fit me great! Nice solid build too, I really enjoy using them. I like my Truthear hola but they definitely feel cheap.

It arrived this morning I only put a few songs through. I only tested the standard (installed) cap it looks like it comes with 4 different cap set. I’d love more sub bass but the mid bass is excellent and the clarity is exceptional.

I’ll live with it for a few weeks and will report back.

Sweet! I look forward to hearing more about them. I like that they decided to delay the release rather than get something out faster that wasn’t as “good” as it could be. Looks like it has some nice features I like the tunable nozzles, what is the case like, it’s hard to tell from the photos?

I like the planar “soft” bass, it’s not super prominent but it’s really tight! I usually use the apps Wavelet or Poweramp EQ to tame the treble and add a bit more low end on certain genres. The Timeless is the first IEM/headphone where I find them noticeable sibilant on some music.

I’ll live vicariously through you for now and just put on some Steely Dan, Aja is one of my favourite albums for enjoying great IEMs/headphones :blush:

It looks and feels like a milled aluminum with the pyramid grid design that match the IEMs. I like it although unlike plastic like material when you open and close there’s noise, :smile:

I have not tried the nozzles just yet. I’m still in the middle of tip selections. The process that usually takes a few minutes but this one has dragged on for a few days now.

I love the favorite included the clear silicone with read core as it offers the best balance. The problem is that it kept coming off and stuck in my ears. Then the search for the alternative began.

The only thing that came close when it comes to bass balance is the foam tips but in general I don’t want to go directly to foam tips because it unnatuarlly blocks out to much ambient noise.

Sounds-vise, I’m enjoying the Timeless II very much it has this freakishly clean and clear presence and great punchy mid bass. It works really well with the type of music I listen to live performance from Funk to Rock like Cory Wong, Vulfpeck, Clapton, Marcus, Jaco, Micheal Mcdonald.

I’ll update the progress later

Edit: sorry forgot the pictures @sshoihet
