“Operating under the philosophy that the cabinet has the greatest effect on overall sound quality, in order to control unwanted resonances (what they refer to as “box colorations”) the chassis is “meticulously milled and turned on modern multi-axis CNC machines from a solid block of 6061-T6 aluminum.” As to driver technology, they have chosen to use a single dynamic transducer, adopting the principle that the best way to maintain phase coherency and to eliminate crossover distortion is to use a single full range driver. Once again to quote DITA “To fully exploit our ultra rigid chassis, we needed to design a state-of-the-art driver that is ultra-lightweight, ultra-fast and rigid driver. The combination of both lightness and rigidity gives us a smooth and wide bandwidth response curve, along with stunningly quick impulse response.” But DITA doesn’t stop at the chassis and driver, they consider the cable to be a major factor in the sound and have taken great pains in the design and manufacture of their cables down to the use of Van den Hul silver solder and the non-magnetic carbon fiber TRS connector.”

” Onto the overall built quality and we have housings that are also a hybrid of sorts, with a plastic ring around a metal barrel. Being a majority share of metal I can’t find any faults and obviously I have said enough when it comes to the cable connectors. As for the actual cable it is what we have seen time and time again on the last haul of Dunu products which is a solid enough cable with the fancy little cable wind up. The only worry I have is where the cable goes into the MMCX housings it seems to be quite pinched. I am excited for the next two models as I have seen some pictures of them with some fancier looking braided cables!”

” It is not an immediate IEM in that respect, it is for someone who knows what they are doing and what kind of sound they may be after and they are prepared to chop and change and develop a setup to maximize what it can offer. Countless matchups yielded different results with the ERIB-5A and I could well understand if some liked it and some did not because it simply comes down to what you want to pair it with and how you will wear it and what tips you stick on it. It can do desktop though and it does scale but only after about 50 hours burn in. Patience is a virtue with the ERIB-5A”

” The bass is typically balanced armature sounding in a lot of respects due to its speed, punch and lack of absolute rumble, it is boosted just enough to handle some bassier genres and also meet demands of a lot of folk. It is also just soft enough to make it pleasant on the ears without going over board like the InEar SD-4 which is very much categorised by a soft and spongey bass. Compared to more neutral products such as Hidition’s Viento-R it has a bit more bloom but is still way too polite to even draw a comparisons to Jh Audio’s Roxanne on the lowest bass setting! I would say therefore it is nearer to the Hidition in quantity, but still noticeably warmer. While it does not pull off the rumble of a dynamic driver (or Campfire armatures) it does have a great equality through all aspects of the bass, not rolling off too soon or being overly thick in the mid bass.”

” Regardless of the cable, having NS on is simply a choice. You can listen to it off and then turn it on when you so desire, with immediate effect and easy access. When off these are no different to simply listing to a 6mm CCAW neodymium magnet, dynamic driven earphone and that could be your thing but if you want to actually take advantage of the acoustic crossfeed and involve the second 6mm driver you will want to turn NS on.”
