Thanks @gLer for creating this thread!
I have started following Alt-R impressive designs and craftmanship ever since @gadgetgod posted his YouTube videos (in 4 parts) interviewing @Visveswaran Umashankar (Vishy).
In fact, after several video calls with Vishy, I am going to order a custom case from him!!
Cannot wait to start looking through the leather choices and making my commitment
I was pleasantly surprised to find a booth at Singapore Can Jam 2024 from ALT-R selling sturdy leather cases, from small ones for IEMs, to mid-sized ones for DAPs, to even large cases for full-sized cans and amps.
And these are real leather cases, not those "leatherette" or PVC types which are dime-a-dozen.
This shop is the brainchild of Visveswaran Umashankar from India (on the right with our esteemed reviewer @gadgetgod on the left who flew in for Singapore Can Jam on the left!). ALT-R even does customized cases should you wish for, and some Can Jam participants actually placed custom orders today.
Anyway, I managed to get a DAP case, as I have actually been searching for something like this for some time. The case comes with many divider inserts, with a huge carrying pouch, and some smaller pouches and cushions. Outside is hard and rigid, while the internals are soft as silk with all areas lined by velvet.
It is quite spacious internally, and even for this DAP-sized case, it can fit a Sony WM1A + dongles and IEMs easily.
