Interested in the CL750. Is the housing the same as the standard MA750? So they tuned the driver, hopefully it sounds more engaging. Currently using the V-Moda ZN so would love to see how it compares.

Hopefully these will be available soon in the Apple stores.

I don't think that ever happened, since they all ready say this won't have in-line control, but maybe the L1 made it.

Is there any internal schematic, cross-section of the CL1? I am trying to figure out how the entire thing is meant to interact and work.
Many thanks.

Edit: Found one.

Here are some pretty positive IFA impressions:

from the video, "mid-october" seems to be the latest ETA

Can't imagine isine IEM are ergonomic in the slightest. They look so bulky / clunky. Hoping to get a listen to both at RMAF!

Here's me wearing them. Big but light.

Yes, October. The iSine and the new RHA IEMs are completely different sounding, I especially liked the CL1 on the copper SE cable and the balanced silver one

Hey guys, thanks for all the enthusiasm so far!

Lots of questions in the thread, I'll be running through them all tomorrow morning in a big post!

Couple of things that might be worth noting just now: CL1 is 150 ohms, and yes, we are looking into bundles for CL1 + Dacamp L1!

excellent news it will work with the Tera mwahahaha

Thanks for the pic. Trying to wrap my head around those...

LOL, nope

Even though I'm a hardcore sci-fi can, I'm trying to figure out if I could tolerate something that looks that wonky sticking out of my head

Glad RHA's offerings look nice AND ergonomic...

I know the circumstances under which you listened to these were not ideal. However, could you give us an idea of how the iSine(10 or 20) and the CL1 sound and how they compare? Like you, I'm leaning heavily towards the CL1 but the iSine is still interesting, albeit wonky looking. Thanks!

I'm kinda disappointed that RHA isn't garnering the attention they deserve with these new products

On the contrary, there is a ton of content out there on the iSine already. Anyhow, here's a video from IFA. The camera guy clearly didn't have OIS on his phone but at least he posted something

At that size, might as well get the on-ear Sine.

Thanks for posting those.

Great balanced specs, but sounds like the L1 is made more for iems and low-impedance headphones. Writer says he couldn't go past 4 on the volume dial using the T20. Assuming those are the 16 ohm RHA T20s, may not be much power left over for hungry headphones (even with the balanced out).

EDIT: Makes sense as RHA has yet to make any headphones.

I think he was using the lowest gain setting and the L1 has three. I thought it could drive headphones up to 600 ohms.

And _not_ look like a Teletubbie as an added value. /sorryhadto
