The Globe is all about musicality, lush warm and wide open one, near basshead one too, which will make run away stone cold audiophile purist that only swear on high fidelity restitution to the cost of listening to a cryogenic soul less musicality. Mids: Rich yet clear. Smooth yet detailed. Full yet open. Forward yet balanced. This midrange is absolutely splendid in every way. Instrumentation as well as both male and female vocals are an absolutely joy. The midrange (especially the lower midrange) is certainly colored with warmth, but it is done with a maturity and refinement that adds an atmosphere rather than obscures the character and qualities of the music itself. Again, it is very much like a vintage tube amp in that way.

The spatiality is notably wider and taller with the Globe, making the Lite sound a bit in your head. Imaging is about on par, but the sound layering is more articulate yet feel more compressed with the Lite. Penon Globe should be the fourth IEM i tried(after Penon Sphere, Fan and Orb) from Penon Audio, using 10mm Dynamic Driver handles low frequency, 1 Sonion BA handles midrange and 1 Knowles BA handles high frequency with impedance 10 Ω so it’s supposed to be easy to drive using your phone. Globe using dark shell with colourfull marble pattern faceplate. Believe me....i'm a bit fatigue to be that much of a Penon fan boi...it's really not my type to be like this and well, at least my critical listening grumpyness was able to blossom a bit with the Fan and ISN H30, but not to the point of delivering a harsh review, well, I sincerly dislike H30, but do find good the Fan, which have nothing to do with immense appreciation I have for FAN2 (the real deal with the Serial). This is a simplistic song really, it’s slow and incredibly textured, not only with Brendan Perry’s voice textures but the bass has a distinct tone and characteristic too. Globe has the best height and depth compared to the three, but has the least width (only slight differences)The included ePro EP00 silicone tips are designed to improve the timbre, sound quality, maintain the treble, sparkle and liveliness, without negatively altering the rest of the frequencies. In this very impressive pairing, the Globes' stage is both wider and deeper with instruments given more room to breathe, and even midrage clarity seems to have improved with vocals sounding more natural - though not quite as impressive as the Penon Vocal cable in that regard. Juicy, generous and fun in a luscious way that can benefit mid range too, since yes their a bit of compromise due to lower mid range lift which the dynamic driver deal with too, to add cream to the Global cake.

Should be the main star for Penon Globe, Poisonous Female Vocal which has good weight and imaging, Male vocal has nice weight not as charming as Female vocal but still good one. Detail is good in midrange, life-like string instrument presentation Blessing using DD but almost the same as BA sound, it has weak impact but still better than BA, it's fast This is in marked contrast to the Orb, whose one common criticism was an overly polite or rolled-off treble region - clearly Penon has been listening, because this accusation holds absolutely no water against the Globe. There is definitely a good amount of bite and energy when such is called for — yet it always shies away from the point of being piercing or fatiguing. Blessing is the thinnest and boasting lot of clarity, it's the cleanest at the cost instrument can sound weightlessBass: Though the bass has a significant boost and would perhaps even come close to satisfying bassheads (I am not at all one myself), the low end is not in my opinion meant to be the star of the show. Rather, its powerful weight and authority serves as the foundation of the Globe’s rich tonality, the gravity by which it draws one into its atmosphere.

So, their come the Globe, which is another 1DD+2BA offering, but at even more expensive price than the marvelous FAN2. I have had the opportunity to review most of Penons earphones and in that time I have gotten to know the progression of Penon sound through their earphones. This review represents their newest creation, the Penon Globes. Dynamics are boosted significantly, bass feels more impactful, the stage is wider & deeper, and vocals are beautifully smooth & rich. Treble reproduction is terrific too, but without the feeling details are being shoved in one's face. Essentially this feels like a direct upgrade in most ways to the CS819 pairing, with a faultless balance of great tonality and superb technical performance. Penon house sound does not tune for neutrality nore on the other spectrum, bombastic sounding earphones. If that is the type of sound you're looking for, then it will be advisable to look elsewhere. However for the enthusiast that actually listens to their music vs analyzing parts of it. This is what Penon achieves with their house tuning a certain type of musicality to the point where there is a connection to the music you're listening to. The Globe represents yet another earphone that is a prime example of their tuning philosophy. Sound that is always presented with a spacious dynamism, fluid richness in tone with cohesion, well balanced and always dimensional. These are about sub bass and natural mid range first and foremost. Big warm slam that mix with the mids in an organic way, everything is smooth, creamy yet hefty in dynamic without loud peak, even how the bass hit doesn't really fatigue your hearing and yet, we don't have a boring bass response.

This will favor tone and timbre density over it's texture or presence brightness, this mean that as a whole the Globe is warmed.
