How did TERRA start?
"As a young, adventurous lad, all I wanted to do was travel and explore the world. I also had a very strong inclination to play bass guitar. I guess Terra was born out of a deeper reflection of the two. As a bass player, I had a booming, powerful instrument in my hands, but the bass is a very supportive instrument.
It is an instrument that takes music to a whole other dimension. I loved the communal aspect of traveling in a band, the communal
aspect that the bass requires. That defined the contours of Terra for me.
An IEM that combines two sounds - one that I created myself, the LimeEars house sound, and another that most people love, the Harman sound, because the beauty of music should be shared." -- Emil Stolecki, Founder & CEO of Lime Ears
Theme
In mythology, Terra represents land. Land that feeds us. Land that supports us. Just as a good pair of IEMs is necessary for any audiophile, land is necessary for our existence.
But Terra also has metaphysical connotations. In Roman mythology, Terra Mater is the Roman primordial goddess of the earth, which literally means "Mother Earth." A physical personification that codifies the vast expanse of land we live on in terms that human cognition can process.
However, Terra was later also embodied in Latin by the expression "Terra Ignota". Expression "Terra Ignota". Here we see a clear distinction between the land we know the lands we know that graciously support life on Earth and the unknown lands, the dangerous unexplored lands that symbolized limitless potential.
Sound
The historical odyssey you have just embarked on is your guide to the very essence of Terra. This is where Terra begins for us and what we hope to achieve with Terra.
We start with countries that are familiar to us. The friendly soundscape. The Harman sound. With raw doses of power, resonance and space. Terra brings
powerful and organic bass with fresh highs and offers an invigorating, improved version of the beloved Harman curve.
With breathtaking expanses, Terra dominates the soundstage of your favorite songs and entices you with seductive highs that resonate in the soundstage and deliver precise, powerful sound packages. Terra draws from the human desire for exploration and victory. For expansion and conquest.
Terra also draws from the unexplored soundscape itself. Its raw, unbridled potential. Terra is the victorious conquest of this slumbering soundscape. Terra brings the thrill we know from a dopamine rush straight to your ears and makes you feel like a champion.
aesthetics
The pride of Terra is not just its sonic splendor. At first glance, Terra comes in a lush, earthy-green gemstone shell. A figure of natural abundance. Just as nature masters the elements, Terra displays mastery of the highs, mids and lows. With quaking lows, surging mids and airy highs, Terra's gemscape captures the benevolence of Terra Mater.
Upon closer inspection, the treacherous Terra Incognita reveals itself, its menacing wildness embodied in its bright, malevolent red tones.Reminiscent of the deep ruby petals of a rose and its rough thorns and the piercing maroon pattern of a Black Widow, the Terror of Terra rears its ugly head.
Terra's soundscape delves deep into the oceanic depths of sound that conveys the thrill of the hunt. As you gaze into the abyss, every song you hear with Terra will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you wanting more.
Product description
In mythology, Terra is a living, personified being, charged with risks and countless possibilities. TERRA also reflects the relationships between our conscious and subconscious. The known and unknown lands.
Polymer Impregnated Synthetic Opal (PISO), a multi-colored crystalline Bello Opal used on Terra, amplifies the nature we are familiar with and exceeds expectations with a colorful, psychedelic gemstone landscape - a reimagining of the unknown.
TERRA capitalizes on the booming energy and excitement of discovery. By using our TiTE TM module, cutting-edge HERO TM super tweeter and VariBore TM acoustic design, TERRA extracts the bold spirit of adventure and adds a unique Lime Ears twist to the famous Harman sound. Feel the quivering beauty of the fresh highs and organic lows.
Get ready for adventure with the graceful, natural power of
TERRA. Explore the unexplored.
TiTE TM module
Titanium Tonal Energy Module - Terra is built on the solid, herculean strength and power delivered by our flagship ANIMA. By utilizing the dynamic titanium driver also featured in ANIMA, Terra delivers powerful and organic sounding bass that highlights a realism unique to LimeEars.
The titanium dynamic driver - compared to the typical mylar or fringe metals used to make the diaphragms of dynamic drivers on the market, they are heavier and stiffer. This extra weight and increased rigidity creates a powerful, organic sound, an enhanced listening experience for Harman sound.
The TiTE TM module brings out the timbre of every note and sends waves of resonance directly to your ears, giving your music a strong, warm glow.
HERO™ Super tweeter
High efficiency and high resolution - It is known that heroes always come to save the day. With the HERO™ Super Tweeter we have succeeded in raising the high frequency performance to new heights.
This new generation 2023 Knowles RAU Balanced Armature driver offers a
enhanced tweeter performance that provides higher power and resolution without the need for a transformer or high voltage amplifier.
It covers a range of up to 25 kHz, which is twice the extension compared to other BA drivers which drop off at 12 kHz. The greater efficiency is reflected in the significantly increased treble response at much lower volumes compared to our previous electrostatic drivers.
Our new HERO™ Super tweeter features an innovative slot design instead of the traditional nozzle. Precisely positioned at the tip of the nozzle, this advanced linear acoustic directional firing mechanism emulates the performance of an advanced ribbon tweeter* found in professional home speakers, delivering high frequency performance that is unparalleled and crisp.
*(Ribbon tweeters and their wide sound dispersion offer extended high frequency response, faster transient response, low distortion, natural sound and improved efficiency).
VariBore TM acoustic design
Variable Bores - During our research we discovered that the bore diameter plays a crucial role in controlling different frequencies. By carefully designing bores with different diameters, we are able to transmit the different frequencies with increased precision.
This effect is particularly pronounced at higher frequencies, where the The increased diameter significantly reduces air friction and minimizes resonance influences.
The result is a significant improvement in the upper frequency range, which is reflected in
This results in an improved high frequency range and a significantly smoother, more authentic reproduction of highs.
SAAS Core
The robust, 5-axis aircraft-grade aluminum in which this powerful
machines, pushes its durability to the limit. Made of the same material, which the wings of airplanes are also made of, this aluminum is lightweight yet durable and allows ergonomic comfort and reduces fatigue when carrying.
The durability supports the sound production of the TERRA independently and unyieldingly and enables Optimizations that allow us to use a heavier titanium driver while keeping the IEM lightweight!
