Product Information

Iron man - The sound at the beginning is hard to make sound great, great drums, and cymbals, and if done right it feels like an old-school band. Listening to Dimash Kudaibergen’s “Sinful Passion”, the vocals are full of sentiment and the cello is textured but at the same time oozes with an enchanting richness. It sounded tonally balanced, and nothing really bad to say overall about its frequency response, which later measured just as well. This mid-range is a hint warmer with the Hook, not as clean as the Winter, and not as transparent too, it has a thicker presentation as well as lower mids so male vocals are more bodied and forwards, while female vocals just a hint less upfront than the Winter.

If you’ve tried a planar iem before and loved the crisp detail and realistic instrument placement, but wished it had a little more of the dense buttery low-end of a dynamic driver – then this might be the iem for you.It reminds me very much of the BQEYZ Spring and Summer IEMs which coincidentally also contain a piezoelectric driver. Music is at the core of what we do; and it's our aim to help you rediscover your music and help you enjoy the riffs, basslines and solos that were always there, but never heard. These two driver types are among the most sensational driver technologies in the audio industry, and have never been utilized together in an IEM format.

What stand apart is the holographic sense of layering that put forward mids in the center stage without being too compressed. The hook-x has a really pleasing warm tuning which highlights the bass while also allowing for a great sense of clarity and detail. OPTIMIZED INTERCHANGEABLE CONNECTOR CABLE​The new Hook-X comes with a optimized modular connector cable terminated to 0. The back is made of 2 metal part, one with a big venting hole plus a mate black metal mesh, this permit to keep sound leakage minimal while offering a wide venting property that will avoid unwanted resonance or distortion often found with a fully closed shell.Nonetheless, the balance between low and upper mids is very well rounded here and permits a highly addictive mix of smoothness of attack edge while keeping an energic sense of dynamic.

balanced terminations are included, which I appreciate as opposed to including just one kind of balanced connection or the other.

Black was the color of choice for the Faceplate with a raised brighter green metal trim standing out for an awesome look. The overall construction of the Hook is quite nice, it's all metal made by a high-precision 5-axis CNC machine with an open-back design.
