Fisrt of all I'd like to thank Hisenior and Gareth for their kindness and easy communication. Everything was very easy from pre-order to delivery (I'm living in France).
I'd like to precise I'm not a reviewer just a passionate who share feelings and pictures of its own collection.
When I received my new toy, I totally fell in love with it's look and quality. Better in real than in picture.
I can only speak about what I have ordered, I mean Okavango and WhitWhale cable, no stock cable in my order. WhitWhale cable looks really good, really light and well finished.
It was not as easy as with others of my iems to find the right tips. And finally, the game changer is Tangzu Sancai. Now, perfect fit and confort.
I meanly listen to Blues, Rock, Bluegrass, Country.
First impressions with standard settings ( soundstage +) are good, I like what I hear but I need more tests and of course more time to make my final opinion.
I quickly change to balanced settings which seem to be the favorite settings among reviewers. And I need to say I prefered this option too. Nevertheless, after several changes, vocal+ is the winner for now . It can of course still change.
What I hear is fun, with organic bass. I don't know if this is very understandable but this is what I feel. And I think in some kind of way I can compare the bass to my Kennerton Vali headphone. The fun fact. Yes, bass is fun with this iems. Very different of my Thiedaudio Legacy 4, bass is thin on Legacy 4. And this is good because I really wanted a different sound.
I won't say they're basshead iems but like Erling Kildal said in a previous review and I totally agree with him, they're fun and energetic for sure.
I'm very sensitiv to highs and have to say it works better for me with my R6 Pro II and my RU7 than with my R6 2020. With saber dac it becomes a little bit harsher.
IMO, soudnstage is not the best I ever heard but good anyway.
To conclude my feelings, I have to say I'm very happy with my choice. Okavango are what I was expecting : FUN, beautiful and qualitative !!!
