So I'll make a Cavalli New Products Update thread in a few minutes and you can ask him questions if you like. Or me for now if that works.

And as for you Buke9 ....you tell him that ...I'm not going there hahahaha :grin::headphones:

Thanks for all the Cavalli Audio news. I had no idea I'd get so many answers when I first asked about it. I feel sated that there is a $4000+ solid state flagship replacement coming. As well as a Carbon 3.0 not named Carbon. On the flagship solid state model you may call it Liquid Snake.

Hahaha. I'm not so sure a snake is made of an element like metal. Well I do own a car that is metal and its called a SuperSnake :grin:

Well it is a "Metal Gear Solid" videogame reference. Solid Snake's arch nemesis is Liquid Snake, AKA his evil twin clone brother. They fight for control of a walking nuclear tank called Metal Gear... not making it up :grinning:

Jason,do you know what DAC will be used in these amps?
 
Apr 19, 2017 at 1:13 AM Post #487 of 521
I don't know. I know suggestions have been made to him. Alex has mentioned 1 (never by name to me) he's leaning toward.

There was a time when the ESS DAC was ground breaking. Who ever this DAC manufacturer is, it seems he believes this DAC co. is equally as impacting on digital audio performance. I'm looking forward to see and HEAR what he comes up with.

Let's not get too far out in front of this. These are "Idea" plans with DACs. What's real, "something you could purchase this year" is the Spark, Tungsten, Platinum & Ambiance ...all analog with that Cavalli sweetness

What you're referring to as the baby liquid crimson is called a liquid platinum. It currently has a projected sell price of $1500. Lets hope it can meet that price and not go up. The Liquid Ambiance is the other PCB sample on display at CanJam and its solid state at the same projected price. And for those that love the Liquid Carbon we have great news. It's getting a total redesign and it's being tested soon with an onboard DAC. All these should be available in time to stuff your Christmas stockings with well before Christmas.

So if all goes as planned there will be the
Liquid Spark (currently at $500 but will go up to $650 -$700 real soon
Liquid ****** (formerly known as LC) $999
Liquid Ambiance $1500
Liquid Platinum $1500
And the Flagship Liquid Tongsten $6000. - $6500

After all the pre-orders are filled on these products a large additional run will be started to accommodate the "buy now" type of buyers on all these new products. I know you've all been told this before "Cavalli is changing for the better" but this time it's real and I'm actually watching it happen in real time.

 
Do we order the Spark through you? Because there doesn't seem to be a page on the Cavalli website for any of these products.

Currently through The Source AV or Music to My Ear or eventually on Cavalli's web site

So Alex told me this morning that "Ambiance" is its skunk works name not its final name. He may decide to ask for suggestions from the headgear community on the name but that hasn't been decided yet.

Jason - does The Source have a physical location with several amps available for A/B with my headphones?  I am thinking a little ahead, and might want to A/B several amps before deciding on one...  
If not - any idea where can I A/B some amps?  Does Cavalli have a show room / store??
