Oh no no no, I heard them at CanJam so I wasn’t curious enough to blindly pull the trigger.

They’re a good IEM, no doubt. Not for me tbh. I think they’re built extremely well with a classy and handsome design. For $250, I think they’re well worth it.

That would be even worse IMO as he would be toying with peoples wallets…

Not the first time something like that has happened though…

Better hope this aint the way he is doing things with his own brand moving forward…he should be setting the bar for others to follow. Not fucking lowering it…

God damn this is just like what happened with Apple in the UK, Apple of all companies (literally nr 1 in the world) could have easily told the UK to fuck off with wanting to deactivate their encryption or else threaten with just leaving them…

Respectfully couldn’t disagree more since he’s not a government or monopoly. People can just not buy :person_shrugging:t2:

That isnt the point, the point is to set the standards for others to follow. As he isnt just a random company, but THE audio guy that MANY look at.

Like I don’t want to defend crinacle because I’m certainly pro disclosure of specs but I mean I personally think aside from the obviously illegal stuff he can do whatever he wants with his company :person_shrugging:t2:

And in saying that if people don’t like what he’s doing they can just show that with their wallets. But seeing as people are buying well…

This is crin, anything he sells would obviously be sold out asap like that. THAT is exactly why I hate how non-transparent he is, cuz people dont give a fuck anyway.

They are slowly climbing up that price ladder but presentation and accessoiries remain as lowkey as they have been…bummer

Why odyssey over Arcadia for most?

I’m almost happy that none of his collabs really spoke to me. The 2nd version of the Salnotes zero is the only one that is somewhat enjoyable imho.

I was kind of hoping that he’d set some sort of moral example for the sets he’s making. I never suspected that that moral example would be completely backwards.
Btw, did he confirm that EPZ is the oem? I’ve seen that statement floating around, but I don’t know if it’s confirmed or not.

If the drivers aren’t on the list, does this IEM even exist? :thinking:

What tuning priorities does their selection so far not already cover? Getting hard to keep track of their similar looking releases that aren’t wildly different each time. Looking forward to hearing the Arcadia soon.

As @Ohmboy says, the new Letshuoer DX1 have a tonality that’s similar to the flagship Cadenza 12(ofc not at a technical level, but still decent for what price will be)

I really enjoyed it today, built like a tank and has a refined tonality that work well over a wide range of genres.
