An innovative hybrid IEM
The Darling is a hybrid IEM with one dynamic driver and two Sonion balanced armatures per monitor. It features a number of innovations, such as adjustable depth nozzle and T-APB air balance eartips. This IEM is a great option for Tanchjim fans eager to experience the company’s foray into hybrid design.
One dynamic driver and two balanced armatures
Unlike traditional IEMs that use a single dynamic driver, balanced armatures are smaller, lighter, and provide greater output for less power. By allocating different frequency ranges to different balanced armatures, the Darling is capable of producing a more detailed and clarified response.
Adjustable depth nozzle
You’ll notice that the Darling’s nozzle has not one but two eartip fastening rings. These allow you to choose the depth at which the nozzle penetrates the eartip, which in turn changes the depth at which the eartip penetrates your ear canal. The depth options present different sonic qualities like bass extension and staging. (Just be careful you don’t shove the Darling too far up your ear!)
