About this deal

The Gems are able to deliver a punchy low-end, although no one will accuse them of being bass-heavy. When the music calls for it, they provide the goods to nod your head or tap your toes. All the while they remain clear, fast, and snappy sounding. It’s an engaging sound signature that reminds me of the experience of listening to good monitor speakers, rather than massive subwoofers.

What’s unique with IKKO Gems OH1S is its SVAS (Separating Vector Acoustic System) Acoustic Cavity Technology which makes the sound reflection and diffusion angles optimal in a small form factor. It is made from both resin and aviation-grade aluminum alloy to achieve a physical frequency division effect. The leather cable tie and storage pouch are definitely unusual in design. They are both constructed from soft brown leather. The storage case does its job, but its soft design doesn’t offer any form of protection beyond scratch resistance. The folding wallet style technically will hold the IEMs and cable, but the long leather tie is pretty useless for holding it closed. If nothing else, it is certainly unique. Cable Imaging and soundstage for both devices are pretty good for their price range. Imaging on the Heimdallr ITB03 is exceptional showing better layering and feels more well-composed.

The iKKO Heimdallr ITB03 comes in both lightning and USB-C cables whereas the Dawn needs a separate USB-C to Lightning Adapter to be usable in iOS devices. Performance Given that the Heimdallr is better than the XO, the Heimdallr ITB03 is indeed more expensive, around 50% more expensive than the Hidizs XO. If you don’t need the BT streaming, and battery support of a stand-alone device, the Hidizs XO is still a close alternative that delivers above its price range. KIMONO展」の広報大使に任命される。拝命を受けてのメッセージとして「2020 年は、東京オリンピックが開催されます。世界中から日本が注目される時でもあります。皆様にもこの機会に、改めて日本の美意識の象徴である「きもの」に触れていただく、そんなお手伝いができたら幸いです。」と発信している(一部抜粋)。 The mids are the highlight of the show thanks to the OH2. Both male and female vocals sound silky and without any hint of aggression or artificial metallic tone. Male singers have a slightly weightier presence and stand out a tad more than female voices when singing duets.

The iKKO Heimdallr comes in a neat little box, nothing exciting. It does contain the necessary accessories such as the manual and 3 necessary cables – USB-C to USB-C cable, USB-C to Lightning Cable, and USB-C to USB-A cable. No surprise for a v-shaped sound signature, the midrange is somewhat recessed in the mix, but thankfully with the OH10, it remains reasonably detailed and natural sounding. Voices and instruments have good timbre and clarity, even if they don’t jump out of the music. The upper midrange shows a bit more energy and adds a touch of liveliness to the sound. Tanaka is also widely recognized for his posters designs for Noh productions and other performances and exhibitions staged in Japan and beyond. He was active in realms of typography, exhibition design, and book design as well, and his publication Japan Style was released in 1980 alongside the Victoria and Albert Museum exhibition of the same name. As a leading figure in postwar Japanese design, Tanaka is also credited with playing a role in the professionalization and expansion of the discipline. The Aztects [sic] fashioned flat sheets of Obsidian into scrying mirrors, and ancient peoples created arrowheads and axes with magical properties. A strongly protective stone, Obsidian forms a shield against negativity, providing a grounding cord from the base chakra to the center of the earth. From what I heard in orchestral music, violins have slightly less tactile feel compared to electric guitars, not being as detailed. Nevertheless, I found that in Schubert's works, the coherence among the ensemble of instruments (winds, strings, percussion, etc.) was exceptional and very enjoyable, despite these not being IEMs focused on music analysis.From 1992, she established "Atelier IKKO" and worked as a hair and makeup artist for magazines, TV commercials, and stage performances. In addition to appearing in magazines herself, she also appears on TV, in commercials, in theater, on variety shows and on talk shows. She worked as the exclusive hair and makeup artist for Masataka Itsumi until his death in 1993.

Despite their diminutive stature, the Gems deliver the impression of a remarkably spacious soundstage for a pair of IEMs at this price point. Likely due to their clear and articulate nature, instrument separation and spatial location are well conveyed. The Gems tend towards a leaner and more analytical presentation, especially when compared to the Obsidian. Lift off the foam and you’ll discover an envelope containing the manual and a customer service card. Underneath are nine pairs of ear tips, another box containing the cable, and an unusual leatherette storage case. In the box The bass between the two is very similar. Neither boosts the IEM’s natural bass response, so pairing does have a heavier role in influencing the lows. Both do display the IEM’s lows quite transparently, with no discernable differences between the two. Wide and dynamic soundstage and imaging can be easily expected with the iKKO Heimdallr ITB03. Imaging is well executed, it neither feels monodirectional nor artificially spaced. The iKKO Heimdallr ITB03 has a dual AK4377 and while the XO has a dual ESS Sabre ES9219C different DAC chip inside. Although both DACs support decoding capabilities of up to 32-bit/384kHz PCM and DSD256, only the XO has MQA support (up to 16x).TC44A can supply 50mW of power at 32Ωs while the XO can give a lot more power balanced, with 32mW SE and 125mW balanced @ 32Ωs on 3.5mm SE and 4.4mm balanced respectively.

The vent hole and lipped nozzle are clearly visible. The USB-c port is found at the bottom, which can function as a USB-DAC port and charger. And yes, it can be used at the same time. When plugged into a device, the settings can be toggled to draw power from the input device.Ikko Tanaka (田中 一光, Tanaka Ikkō, January 13, 1930 – January 10, 2002) was a Japanese graphic designer. Concluding Remarks​IKKO iems are totally underrated in the internet’s echo chambers that cultivate herd mentality pushing überhyped yet short-lived products to promote compulsive buying habits. IKKO iems have a long shelf live for a reason. The XO can give more power with the balanced side, with 195mW+195m compared to Dawn’s 230mW, which are both evaluated @ 32 ohms. Design
