Overview

The details behind THIEAUDIO V16 Divinity.

The Pinnacle of In-Ear Monitors  

With 16 Knowles and Sonion balanced armatures in each side, the V16 Divinity stands as not only Thieaudio’s summit of technical innovation, but also as one of the world’s most capable in-ear monitors. We set out to develop our final flagship model with not only flamboyant internal specifications, but also our most integrative tuning and engineering strategy, culminating in a professional performance unlike anything the market has seen before.

5 Way Crossover System  

With a comprehensive 5 way crossover system, the entire frequency band is divided into highly defined regions specific for each driver type. This precision, combined with a high driver count, allows incredible details, texture, and richness across the whole spectrum. 

Sub-bass are powered by Sonion’s largest woofer drivers and have been tuned to cut off at 200Hz, producing a true subwoofer-like experience that delivers impactful and punchy bass - all without hindering the mids. The mid regions have been split into low-mids and upper-mids with unique custom driver combinations selected to best shine their characteristic traits. The fullness and lush timbre that this strategy allows is combined with a studio-like flat tuning across the midrange, which brings out a next level of definition to note fundamentals without discoloring the sound. Custom Knowles super tweeters were utilized to highlight the shimmery and airy atmosphere within the music and tuned to reflect a harmony between detail retrieval and a comfortable listening pleasure. 

It’s not often that such a high driver count in-ear monitor enters the market, and it is even rarer to find ones that are as thoughtfully engineered as that of the V16 Divinity. This final flagship release is the culmination of Thieaudio’s legacy.  

The Stock Cable of V16 Divinity

With our new release, we have also upgraded its previous cable. We have improved the physical texture of the cable by using a soft braided paracord material. The V16 Divinity's stock cable adopts the ultra-pure silver plated 26AWG OCC copper litz wires, and with the additional strand incorporation, it gives a slightly meatier feel and a richer sound. Most significantly, this new stock cable features the proprietary "Smart Switch", a new modular plug design, allowing you to choose between 4.4mm balanced, 2.5mm balanced and 3.5mm unbalanced terminations, simply by swapping out the plug ends. This reduces the need for bulky adaptors, giving your setup a more complete look and feel. The 2-pin connectors on the stock cable are also updated to provide a more secure fit with your IEMs.

Customer reviews

What listeners say about sound, fit and everyday use.

Write a review

Customers praised the exceptional sound quality with "very detailed" clarity across all tones and "fantastic sub-bass." The 16 drivers deliver precise spatialization and separation. However, some noted the large size may not fit all ears, and complex songs can occasionally lose coherence. Overall considered endgame-quality IEMs.

Almost perfect

This IEMs are one of the best I own, the sound is clear, very detailed and in the hole range of tones you have one of the best IEMs in the market, in special the mid bass range of tones is very detailed. The only "imperfection" is that it will not fit in all human ears, because is rather large, but it fit perfectly in mine!!

Not alwys more it's best

16 drivers is a lot of staff dealing with and they work well often but not always. When song are complex the Divinity sometimes loses coherence an become confused.Are just few song but costs the Divnity name.

Divine precision and sublime beauty

Combine these IEMs with VLC and a good DAC+Amplifier and you can surpass, in the range of audible frequencies of course, the characteristics (spatialization, dynamics, separability and clarity) of the main audiophile IEMs, for example the exceptional live resonance of the final piano forte X / or even the extreme bass of the Sony XBA-N3 (at the level of the IER Z1R), to mention only those that I was able to use to make the comparison. On Pendulum from FKA twigs, you get a better separation of the bass sub-classses than the later IEM (which is shocking because the latter are in theory capable of reproducing extreme bass, lower in frequency ! waouh, there is thus a big difference between restitution and perception!), truly exceptional. On the spatialization+3D side, these headphones far exceed the VR3000, especially with an xspace boost from an ifi gryphon : you hear incisive and sharp sounds cutting your eardrums. They appear bulky on photos, but they are light and the bulk aspect gives them a greater isolation.

U12T has been dethroned

Listened to a friend's Divinity. Fantastic sub-bass that doesn't sound like BA Bass, balanced and details to die for. This is an endgame type of sound....all you can do after this is sidegrades.
