Midweek madness – Ultra madness edition

This here is the Mysticraft Tet, a behemoth with 1DD, 4BA, 4EST and 1BCD. Of course, not the first IEM with such a complex configuration, but it is one of the most impressive ones I have heard to date. There is something magical about the way it replays music, building it piece by piece and placing you in the middle to marvel at everything. Details are layered in depth, in height and in width. Not simply an onion-like presentation like, say Fatfreq GMA, but a more complex one, with the same elements interconnected via different planes. And everything done in a very coherent way, nothing sounding out of place.

The general tuning is warm and slightly dark. But it’s only an apparent darkness, upon listening, it becomes clear that details are abundant, textures have a life of their own and there is no harshness whatsoever.

Big, heavy handed bass, that gets out of the way when not needed, but gently reminds you it’s always there, always ready. Detailed, probably the first time i can say about a bass that it’s sparkling. Velvety mids, even buttery to some extent, with weighty notes, perfectly chosen decays and a lush timbre. Treble, while polite has one of the best textures.

As usual, a full review is in the making.
