Any sound difference? Or just for looks?
I was aiming at Clairvoyance or Monarch as my next IEM, but when the Oracle/Excalibur came I went for the Oracle. If it is as good, but at $200 less, then it is a bargin.
They are smaller than expected, but build and cable seems solid in quality and the same for the accessories. Only one size spin-fit tip, but very cool unboxing.
Fucking finally, after those days of me resisting a lot of urge to buy some IEMs/Headphones, I finally have this fella! My first DAC/AMP ever, and I must say the sounds that I am hearing from these so far have been enlightening to say the least. Time to listen to The Strokes more with these on.
Be careful of audio cutting out as my roommate had to return one. Sounded good otherwise tho.
I am seriously considering one for my first tube amp as well…
What DAC/DACs are you planning on feeding it from?
That K702 Anniversary Edition is a nice buy. They don’t show up on the used market as much as they used to. I actually like the K702 AE more than the K712, which I like a lot.
I use the K712 pretty much for classical only, really like the soundstage and the added bass compared to K701/K702 but it’s pretty meh for vocals; K702 Anni is pretty great in that regard. I am actually surprised that K702 Anni comes up a lot less often than HD580J
I got mine couple weeks back. Very nice amp, pairing with bf2, hd600 and eikons sound great to me
I’ve got a bf2 on order but I’ve got a el dac paired with it for now
Beyer T1.2 Ninja style!
Finally on my head. This pair made me realize, end game would be upgraded dt880 at this level. But where? And when? No more headphone hunting until this happens…
Its very hard to beat kimber if the money is there. They look so darn good. I dont know if ill ever make that level of cables possible but thats where ill go when i step up from the mogami standard
I wish iems played well with my ears, i always liked the senn iems and im glad these seem to be a hit
These came in today
Did not buy them, they are on loan but couldn’t resist taking some pictures.
This thread should really be renamed to something like “what arrived in the mail today?” orssomething along those lines
At some point in the near future this thread is going to reach the end of the line, just like Part 1. Maybe we could start petitioning for some new names. I submit “Show us your stuff.” “I love my mailman.” and “Shiny new things.”
Post Mailman Stress Disorder, for those times inbetween orders or before/after just receiving something.
