I don't understand how you can get totl pwaudio shielding for this price.
The black background is immediately perceptible, palpable, and delightful.
I own cables at and above it's price and this stands out. It pairs with the UM mest jet black very well.
The imaging feels a cut above, sounds come from the abyss, and still have texture. I was worried it would overly smooth the highs but they still have defined edges and articulation.
Bass has depth & weight, the mids aren't shoved in your face. The biggest surprise is how detailed it is, I still get the micro detail I love, now set against the blackest background I've experienced.
*I was also worried about the ergonomics and yes it is a bit stiff due to the shielding, but I could go for a walk and didn't notice it at all, it's still soft, light, and doesn't move your iems while you're moving like some cables do.
Best $300 I've spent in the hobby so far, getting to hear proper shielding at this price is an insane value imo.
