Impressions:

These are the EarAcoustic Vinyl series IEMs, and they indeed sound like an analog vinyl filter was applied to the sound.  F718s Fortuna features balanced tuning with a warm, smooth, analog, textured, resolving tonality.  It has a very musical tuning, with a deep, textured, tastefully elevated sub-bass rumble and a rounded, blooming mid-bass punch.  The bass has a masculine weight, without overwhelming or bleeding into mids.  Mids are smooth, full-bodied, musical, and colored with a warmer tonality, but they still have plenty of natural resolution to be rich and detailed at the same time.  Treble is very smooth and natural, with a delicate crunch that prevents vocals from becoming dull.  This tuning works great with classical and jazzy music, as well as with any vocal or acoustic performance where you want to hear the natural, non-fatiguing timbre of vocals and instruments.  Fortunate has a premium look and is tuned to stand out, offering a smooth, premium-quality analog tonality and a musical tuning that can even make poorly recorded audio sound great!
