Going to be moving so clearing some things. Price includes shipping and all original accessories, shown in the second picture.

Always appreciate your contributions Joe. I tried this one out and did some quick listening tests, and in my opinion it's not as "realistic" sounding as the Foobar config you last made. In comparison, this one sounds more "closed in" as well. Seeing as you can use this for 5.1 channel content...

 

  Did you record the reaction? That'd be awesome to see I think.   The inflatable ADEL was personally one of the coolest things I saw at the show, and Stephen is getting a lot of support from various places you wouldn't imagine (or perhaps you would, Jude). It's moving to see these kinds of...

15 pages already, nice!   The weekend was incredibly awesome. I loved showing VR to everyone who wanted to try it.    Big thanks to @Gilly87 and everyone at Echobox for all the help and charity outside of just providing travel arrangements for me. Really a cool bunch of people to hang out...

You too man.    Actually Friday may work for me, since I'm also planning for the weekend. However, I haven't gotten any hotel reservations yet, so maybe that isn't such a good "idea"... I absolutely do plan on going both days though, even if I have to go a sleepless night whiling away at my...

Hey everyone, so now that I'm finally checking back in here since October, did we ever get the extra time/day for just hanging out? I'd love to show some cool technology I own actually so something like that would be great.    But anyway, I may also still need a ride to the event, from UCLA...

I obviously can't say anything concrete as it was a demo at an event, but honestly I think it was at least as good as the HD598's audio.    Actually, in a response on Reddit, Palmer Luckey himself said that it was on par with level of quality you would get on something like an AD700...

Shamelessly posting in a legendary thread. No excuses.   But I will say that I've tried the Rift Crescent Bay prototype and the audio is indeed not slouching. That hardware is now more than a year old. And the Rift is launching very soon. It's going to be great.

Love all the comments about the "realism" of these IEMs. It's really quite amazing how, if aural cues match up to what your brain expects, the feeling that a sound is coming from a physical object in real life is magically enhanced and multiplied. Vertical soundstage wasn't quite the best to my...

  Soon. In the meantime, have a picture.     

I'm using the new B3 with my VR setup and it's some crazy magic to hear things accurately in 3D space with head tracking. When your brain hears the sound coming from a visual cue at the exact same time and place... Everything just becomes so convincing and no longer as if there's a barrier...

Heh, not for me. I used binaural tracks and very quickly noticed that something was a bit different. It just sounded... natural, as if I was hearing things in real life rather than through the medium of transducers. At that moment, the IEMs disappeared, becoming transparent - and so too did my...

  When I try adding the convolver VST, it says this:    "Could not load VST DLL. You may have tried to use x64 DLL or there is an internal error in the plug-in. C:\Program Files (x86)\Convolver\Convolver\convolverVST.dll "   Any idea how to solve this?   EDIT: Never mind, it works now. 

I will, thanks! It's pretty awesome what I have to show off was designed for mobility then. Well, actually it would be better if I could lug around a whole beefy PC, but that's out of my scope for now. All I'm bringing is just a half full backpack really.

UCLA. It'd be nice.         An extra day just for hanging out with each other would be really cool. I'll have some pretty cool stuff for demo. 

I'm so glad this is happening again. Last year was so amazing. I'm all in.    Now just to make plans for how to get there from LA. I'm sure this time will go more smoothly. 

I was curious about the new packaging so I contacted Penon. They are saying that "only the packaging and the accessories changed" and that this change took place "over half a year" ago. 

The title is kind of ambitious sounding, but VR right now is at a point where it's about to blow up, and it will inspire innovation in many industries. One may be audio. Currently, binaural audio hasn't been very popular, wide spread, or accessible. With new technologies that incorporate head...

I for one would be very tempted to get one.    But then I remember that we still have yet to get coverage on the U series, not to mention a lot of other IEMs coming out, and, of course, the ADEL and it's implementation is still being researched and tested. We may see even more improvement in...

So how many people here believe the A12 is the best overall sounding IEMs yet personally encountered? How long do you think before something else tops it, perhaps another 1964 Ears IEM?

That's some great stuff, Mython! I'm shocked I wasn't aware of those resources beforehand. It'll take me some time to get through everything with how busy I am these days.     Well there we go.    Also, I can't remember exactly, so I may be wrong, but in one of the videos, I think I saw...

That may be a very good point. I don't actually know a lot about the difference in mechanical design from a BA to any other type of driver. I'm really curious about the overall design of the system now. Anything to say about this, Vitaliy (I know you're here)?   EDIT: He's gone now.

I'm deliberating on whether I should make a sound science post instead, but basically, the idea I have is that the ADEL allows adjustment of the acoustic impedance difference to near zero. I'm not entirely sure if I'm using the terminology right, or if it's a valid hypothesis, but I think the...

Ah yes, this is exactly the sort of impressions I've been waiting to see! I'm glad I wasn't the only one who got impressions like these. Amber's album is a really good demonstration for these IEMs. I especially like Tundra, where the violin at approximately 1:25 starts going into the distance...
