I think this is the flattest Ziigaat release I have seen so far. Or any graph even.

Yup, looks like.
I thought the Arete was flatter but no, it’s the Odyssey

Do you hear the flatness in the ear as being similar to the graph? I’ve noticed that your coupler seems to be smoother in the high end compared to others.

Mine is in red

Dunu’s Vulkan
Go check all the other squigs ( show me one closer)

Unit Variation is not a mic’s problem :+1:

Would anyone be able to provide any information on the deuce as in power requirements?

Saw somewhere that they require power so I am slightly concerned if I will be able to drive them with my current DAC (xDuoo Link2 Bal Max)

Thanks for sharing your testimonial, Cooler! I too gained a deeper appreciation for the Dead once I started dipping my toes in higher quality audio.

I’m considering a purchase of either the s15 or the S08 during 11.11. They seem to graph similarly. Anyone got experience with how these sets compare?

I’m sure it’s pretty reasonable, but it’s always a red flag for me when companies don’t give clear impedance and sensitivity/efficiency specs.

ok yeah that is pretty bad that they dont specify that for any of their iems…
A 20 usd multimeter is all you need to at least get the impedance…

Dc, but the spec is usually at 1khz. Gets you some idea though.

Holy crap, man. I think it came a bit too hard.

I am now thoroughly terrified of attempting to change that cable. I guess at least the stock cable looks awesome.

Oh no! I hope FF haven’t spent or reinvested their revenue just yet, this fault is looking like a bit of a ratio for just the first days…

If not a full recall, could be a lot of replacement sets and fearful buyers slowing down rate of sales.

Not trying to cause a panic, but three shells out of the sets received so far (admittedly unsure what that number is) seems high enough to inspire caution, same reason I’m wary of drivers failing on OG Teas.

I recall Rode handling a similar issue pretty tactfully. On the NTH-100 headphones, there’s a hinge that is weak on all sets and for lots of people they eventually break. Rather than fix it by correcting the way they’re made, Rode just decided to put out a statement saying they’ll warranty them for life on that defect.

The best or most ideal solution? Maybe not, but I was happy to find out about it when mine broke.
