KSE 1200 : Game-changing IEM

I've long been an advocate of electrostatic speakers - Quad and Marin Logan have been my companions along the way. More recently I became an owner of Stax earspeakers too. All of these produce music in a less fatiguing way than their counterparts. And the KSE1200 are no exception. Explaining audio and sonic effects in words is always a challenge. These IEMs push sound / music into your ear canals in the truest way. One can almost feel the gossamer texture of the air coming forth from the singer or acoustic guitar in its transient immediacy. They follow the amplifier's signal perfectly and deliver a full-range experience. Even listening to EDM or Massive Attack delivers real power and bass. Switch to piano (the true test of a transducer) and you hear a piano. Outstanding nuance and detail retrieval and conveyance of dynamics. for example, listen to a violin and it shocks one with its dynamic envelope unfolding from a performer like Oistrakh. Beautiful little amplifier too - very well made. These IEMs are addictive and get you closer than any other IEM I've heard. Recommended!
