Rumors and new releases thread

Did you notice the rise of Square Planar Drivers? Currently only 3. Let’s see the 4th

I imagine they are much cheaper, haven’t heard the gumiho but according to reviews they are not exactly at other planar’s level.

I actually like how those look… think my hearts set on a A90D though

The volume screen is a nice addition but the L70 still seems to be current limited.
A90d will still outperform this amp with heavy loads like low impedance planars

Any rumors on a new fiio utws?

BTW: dynamic range on the L70 is literally insane. That’s 24 bit of dynamic range

what does exercising muscles, stretching tendons have to do with coming to love something?

LOLOL!!!

I know…just playing on the word. :wink:

The price difference shows it’s results. But you get what you pay :wink: If it was in s12 price, it would be a sad K.O. for it.

Winter too! Bone conduction and dynamic (sounds like IMR Na Le)

That one is likely just a piezo driver rather than something more exotic lol.

the Reecho & Peacock spring is still one of the best looking sets imo, still sounds pretty good too

My heart is beating with BQEYZ Audio Winter. I hope their silence for the last days come up with something good.

Things I collected so far:

  1. It will have hybrid and Bone Conduction config
  2. Size is big. No need to deny it since comperative photo here proves it.
  3. Price will be like $300

Considering nearest priced UM Mest Mk2 is around $1500, this is sweet. I hope the many times reduced price is the result of both UM’s brand image and tech used being older than Winter’s.

This is going to be a huge hit or miss IMO.

Dunno if anyone saw this already, there’s a new Mangird product it seems.

8DD would be crazy.
Under details it says
1Dynamic Driver+8Balanced Armature Drivers

Pretty expensive for the driver config, this is already tri-brid territory.
