    It's nice to get some competition with more appropriate price brackets. Hopefully in the upcoming months, we will get Variations level sounding IEMs at $200 below. I'm one to be hopeful considering how much the IEM market has evolved in the past months alone wherein an IEM with poor/meh tuning gets obsolete right there and then.

    Owner of a B2:Dusk here. Judging by the FR alone, the Aful looks even better tonality-wise tbh. That ~8KHz peak on the Dusk can be agressive at times, I usually EQ it down.

    • @barbasour
      @barbasour Рік тому +1

      that 8kHz is probably the coupler's resonance, most likely. I think it's the "compressed" quality of the BA used, which evidently they are high in distortion, especially when played at a high loudness level. but when you play at a moderate loudness level, it's not even peaky but smooth. it also sounds better with wide bore ear tips like Azla Sedna Earfit Light
