The Original "Black Sheep" of the Simgot Family. Warmer and less bright than it's siblings, can still be fatiging for some. Imaging and soundstage are great. Nozzles can fall off with use, QDC Connector isn't ideal

Great resolution and tech, one of the smoothest iems, but uppermids will get hot on energetic tracks at higher volumes. Slightly warm but also lively. Recent units are brighter than first batch.
