ULTIMATE EARS PRO REFERENCE REMASTERED CUSTOM IN-EAR MONITORS REVIEW
July 9, 2016 Comments Off on ULTIMATE EARS PRO REFERENCE REMASTERED CUSTOM IN-EAR MONITORS REVIEW
”
The Reference Remastered strikes me as nothing so much as a tool, perhaps THE tool, to help you find and sort all the sounds you were meant to discover in both music and video. It is easily one of the most dynamic, natural-sounding components I’ve ever heard and for anyone craving neutrality, resolution, and involvement; it is highly, highly recommended.”

DUNU DN-2002 REVIEW
July 8, 2016 Comments Off on DUNU DN-2002 REVIEW
” The soundstage of the DN-2002 is very similar to that of the DN-2000J. The only real difference is that the midrange of the DN-2002 is slightly more forward resulting in a more narrowed perceived presentation of vocals. Instrument separation is also beyond average and has always been one of DUNU’s strength along with its expansive sound presentation.”

WESTONE ES60 $1,300 REVIEW
July 7, 2016 Comments Off on WESTONE ES60 $1,300 REVIEW
” Solar has slightly more bodied treble notes with similar amount of resolution, but ES60 sounds a bit cleaner and clearer in treble region. They both are fast and the resolution levels are close. On the other hand, Solar has more coloration, but both have natural presentation with similar transparency and cleanliness.”

DITA Review
July 3, 2016 Comments Off on DITA Review
“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.”

Dunu dn-2002 Review

” 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!”

CAMPFIRE AUDIO ANDROMEDA REVIEW

” The earphones are designed to be worn over ear and as such you wont have any issues with micro-phonics. Memory in the ear guides works well, its a pretty basic design but is done right and keeps the earphones in place even when moving around a lot. A nice little custom CA branded clear jack is found at the 3.5mm point with decent strain relief attached and up the other end the TRRS connectors are equally well done They lock into the earpieces with a solid click and the swivel when engaged is butter smooth.”

OBRAVO ERIB-5A PLANAR REVIEW
June 23, 2016 Comments Off on OBRAVO ERIB-5A PLANAR REVIEW
” 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”
