Shipped fast and arrived brand new even though i ordered an open box sale item.
Everything about it’s functionality is top notch for the cost.
Its system wide PEQ is worth its weight in gold.
My only complaint is a preventable one. The screen is insanely prone to scuffs and scratches. It may as well be plastic.
I should’ve used the provided screen protector. LESSON LEARNED.
I will be ordering a 2nd unit and gifting this one to my 12 year old daughter who rocks the Dunu SA6.
As always, ordering from here is a breeze and customer service is the best in the business.
I am a very happy and loyal customer.
As an enthusiastic Elysian Pilgrim Noir fan, I was anxious to get my hands on the Apostle, especially after reading a couple of early 5-star reviews, so I did a blind buy to get the early bird discount and I have not been disappointed. As the Noir, IMO, is one of the best neutral sounding IEMs available under a kilobuck, the Apostle adds a bit of everything to that for its higher price: deeper & more impactful bass, better imaging & layering, a great soundstage, a bit better tonal accuracy and clarity from lows to highs, with a fabulous midrange & vocals, and plenty of “twinklies and sparklies” in the treble without any sibilance or fatigue. It’s probably my favorite all-rounder, and a top “desert island” pick for the long term. My only critical comment is about the chin slider, which is so loose as to be useless - a pretty small nit to pick but frustrating on a $2000 IEM nonetheless.
I’ve been chasing detail for a long time — and finally, I found it. The Empire Ears Odin is where musicality and detail meet perfectly for my taste. The layering and soundstage are breathtaking; the bass is powerful yet controlled, the mids are rich and natural, and the treble sparkles without harshness. It feels like rediscovering my entire music library. It's truly a flagship IEM worth every penny! And the MucisTeck team is very proactive during the ordering process. Kudos to them!
