    I see what you mean - also at the 2:50 mark.

    Those percussion areas seemed to sound best with the Simgot EW200, Letshuoer Galileo, and Raptgo Bridge. I got a much better sense of “toms surrounding my head - THUNDER” than with with more top-to-bottom detail-oriented sets like the Monarch (v1), Etymotic Evo, or Aful Performer 8. I think the percussion sounded better on the Galileo than the Kiwi Quintet, even though they have very similar graphs.

    I think the common denominator here (other than just the tuning) is how much is handled by the DD.

    Just for fun, I tried out the Blon Z300 with this song. It’s a bit muddy (the tuning), but it also has the big percussion sound. Even the Moondrop LAN, which has much more “polite” bass still has the “big toms” sound. I think the DD is the key. You might audition a good single DD set and see if that gives you the realism and intensity that you’re looking for.

    I ordered one myself and will give it a review once it finally arrives.

    I’m a neutral-listening kind of guy, so your review is (for me) an endorsement. :-)

    Either way - I’m excited to see what they can do with a 1xBA set.

    Thanks for the detailed review.
