I think a signal to rear line-out is coming directly from OV4627 pre-amp, and to front headphone-out goes from OV4627 through MAX97220, which has more power for low impedance load but more distortion. It's absolutelly normal when pre-amp has better sound for use with hi-class external.

For example the internal digital filter of DSD1793 can be disabled and the DAC is then paired with the external DSP processor. Usually its presence determines the class of the device.

How about battery life? I didn't find anything about it in the specs.

Hi. That designer was me. So, what about Gulag?

And coming soon...

May be Þekkr (Thekk) - "Welcome One", or "Desired"? Historically, this is one of Odin's alternative names again.

I have one day to complete the assembly of six headphones for the exhibition On Tuesday, our boss flies to Singapore

Our partner is located in Shanghai. But customs clearance took place in Hong Kong. The weight of the cargo was matched to the packing list. Therefore, the headphones were stolen after customs clearance, i.e. either in Hong Kong, or in Shanghai, or on the way between them. Shipment was carried...

Attention, please! Thror with the serial number THR033 was stolen from our distributor and good partner in China. It is not clear yet where it has happened - at their warehouse or while transportation. The headphones were stolen from a sealed box and then the empty box was repacked and taped...

Hi all This headphones use the same driver as Thror, but little differences in housing and damping. Grid not the final. It is just a first prototype of headphones for sound tuning. A final grids probably will have a T-design. The weight of this prototype is 395 grams. Headphones very flexible...

Thank you, Eric. Please note - many of the statements in this text are relevant mainly for Russia and are aimed at inexperienced users. I just wanted to open the door to the wonderfull world of audiophilia for them, and tell a little about our headphones. Unfortunately in Russia people not to...

That is unnecessary. Thror with old cables were received only by the first five clients of Pierre. You're THR013 already have the renewed cable)))

Custom Litz cable was supplied only with preorder in special offer. All other headphones are completed with standard cable. But all buyers who bought Thror with Odin's cable, will get renew cable with next supply to Pierre Paya.

We finish the produce of FA-011 and decided to make the last items more premium. It is a standart FA-011 in Vali exterier. Only 25 pieces are available, but 10pcs will be sent to distributor soon. This model will not be release more.

Sold

Don't worry about glued-together wood blocks))) They are much stronger than they seem.

Hi guys, hi Eric. THR001 - It's just a beta-sample (with final exterier) for testing and checkout a stability of new drivers. We want to test some different materials for magnetic system (carbon, fiberglass). Also I setted new molded plastic grills, and new leather headband (like on Moon Ebony...

The first pair of composite grills is installed on the ODIN Pale Moon Ebony. Who will risk being the first owner?

If this new parts not be too brittle, I will try to set them in Pale Moon Ebony, or another case in some b-stosk (they will sale like prototype). Unfortunately I could not to mold all grilles without little cosmetic defects (1-2 micro bubbles on surface). It's complicated handwork.

"They" = I am Sound with carbon is good, but it will be already another sound. It will not be an Odin anymore))) So... Odin will stay Odin, and for another sound we creating Thror now. We not plan to change Odiin's sound signsture (so we will not change the driver materials), but we hope to...

Because: 1) This element is part of a magnetic circuit and affects the sound. We do not want to change the sounding of Odin. 2) Carbon is more expensive than steel.

Hi Eric) Some explanation with my google-translated English This is our new custom cable. It contains our vintage Soviet litz wires like in our early custom cables. We already produced several pcs for sale. And we want to know your opinion about usability and sounding. This is test cables...
