Youtube Video Summary

Symphonium’s Triton takes the Helios’ concept and makes it sing: a 3-BA set around $900 that simply works with gear the way it should. Where Helios felt picky and “flat” in system matching, Triton is amp-friendly—plug into multiple solid-state amps and it just plays, with only subtle flavor shifts. The tuning clicks into place: one driver clearly handling low-end weight, one the midrange body, one the treble air, all in lockstep. Staging opens up, the mix feels cleaner, and the bass hits with more impactful authority. In plain terms: across detail, bass, and imaging, Triton comes off as the straight-up better listen.

On music, the set flips the “neutral = boring” script and goes full musical. Macro-dynamics have a bit of that “violent audio throw,” imaging is spectacular, and micro-details pop—think cymbal choke textures and pinpoint effects appearing exactly where they should, not smeared around the head. It’s not the ultra-diffuse, gimmicky kind of stage; it’s a natural, precise panorama that still invites head-bobbing. Tube amps remain a no-go for BA sets (distortion climbs without real gain), but on clean solid-state power Triton is easy to love and easier to keep in the ears.

Build mirrors Helios—big shells, long nozzle—and the stock cable is abysmal, but once music starts, those gripes fade. In performance tier, Triton can square up to sets like Moondrop Illumination or Softears Twilight (Twilight wins in cable niceness; Triton matches the wow factor). Within Symphonium’s own stack, this is the fun, “listen for hours” choice versus Helios’ more “accurate” stance, and it puts real heat on the cheaper Meteor. Net: a top-five-sounding IEM in this price class and a straight win for anyone who wants impact, stage, and detail without the fuss.

Pleasing tonal balance and coherency, but not the last word in detail, especially relative to the Helios.

The more musical one versus the Helios Cutbacks in clarity, a little too smooth sounding
