    RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis

    I listened w/Feliks Envy which was superb. If I was not tubes then the AHB2 since these were developed on that amp. Plus reviews on the Benchmark are all stellar

    I wished I would have listened to the listener next to me for how much "sound bleed" there was from these. This will make a difference which room I'd have to listen in (Wife+family factor)

    You called it. When I spoke w/Danny he explained it was buyers not wanting to possibly miss out by not buying the top. FOMO for sure

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    The LINA could go louder. I listened to Kind of Blue "So What" It was good but not better. The size of these were much larger than I had thought they were. Plus the $$. I'd rather spend that money on maybe the RAAL triple ribbons. Those were great. Again I wasn't able to A/B those either and...

    I spoke w/Danny while there. Super nice guy and answered all my questions.

    Now I have to decide what I'm going to do. It was one of those deals where like a great concert you find yourself asking: "What just happened there".

    Yes. He told me I think 60 Immanis sold so far and zero Magna.

    Positive. I was AXPONA today and visited the booth/table twice. I was told how many they sold and they too were surprised about the result. Buyers are reluctant about not spending up and possibly missing out. As far as headphone rigs go this is definitely at the high end. The Immanis were beyond...

    Buyers are only going for the Immanis. No Magna sold yet. The Envy did sound good. The 300B tube deal is just an expensive end product with all the tube offerings.

    Just listened to these at AXPONA. Fantastic. I'd love to listen to them in my own system. Always difficult when so many others around.

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    Just got back from AXPONA. Spoke with Colin from Chord for a bit which was fun. and informative. Listened to the RAAL 1995 Triple ribbon headphones which sounded fantastic. Finally got to listen with a Feliks Envy (nice) and the DCA LINA stack (Nice but I prefer the Chord. The only thing I liked...

    Anyone here attending Axpona outside Chicago. I'm thinking about attending but unsure if it's really worth it: waiting lines etc. I wonder if Chord might have a preview of anything as well.
