Pros

  • Paradoxically, they sound good in general and even unique in some specific aspects. And let's admit that $930 is really affordable and moderate compared to $2,500 that Softears wanted for the predecessor of this model, Turii Ti, in 2022....
  • Twilight have a different advantage: they give you the effect of 'maximum detail' of sound. You know, there are some headphones whose sound exposes subtle details of music records. It feels like you can hear 'more' and better than usual,...
  • At 94 dB, the distortion does not exceed 0.4%, and at a frequency of 1000 Hz, it's even 0.028%. This is an excellent result for a dynamic driver.

Cons

  • The cable flexibility is normal, it's convenient to use, but its decorative value is frankly lowered.
  • The case is not even made of faux leather, but covered with vinyl with a 'leather' print.
  • Last, but not least is sound insulation. It's poor due to the fact that the compensation hole (in terms of the total area of the slots) is very large, so it perfectly transmits sound in both directions.
  • The hygiene issue is much more significant. The problem is that dirt gets stuffed into the microchannels that encircle the shells. And to pick it all out... I spent an hour getting the earphones into a state where the pictures of them wo...

Paradoxically, they sound good in general and even unique in some specific aspects. And let's admit that $930 is really affordable and moderate compared to $2,500 that Softears wanted for the predecessor of this model, Turii Ti, in 2022. Looking at it that way, buying Twilight is saving!

Twilight have a different advantage: they give you the effect of 'maximum detail' of sound. You know, there are some headphones whose sound exposes subtle details of music records. It feels like you can hear 'more' and better than usual, as if additional miniscule elements appear on the usually rough texture of the musical flow. Twilight give you the feeling that you can hear just everything that can be heard in the track.

The hygiene issue is much more significant. The problem is that dirt gets stuffed into the microchannels that encircle the shells. And to pick it all out... I spent an hour getting the earphones into a state where the pictures of them wouldn't be dreadful.
