I think the SC is made of Alumiloy® Proprietary Conductor. It is a combination of different metals and only used by ABYSS, correct me if I am wrong.

I agree nothing beats 2 channel with subs :beerchug: My next experiment will be using the 1266 with my 2 "sealed" subs.

Are you referring to the aluminum foam? I was thinking of microfibre cloth but no, it will leave fibres behind in between the aluminum foam. So I suggest the cloth that comes with eye glasses! It is soft and extremely dense at the same time, so no fibres to escape in between aluminum foam.

Do not be too picky about the terms, come on dude. This is not a peer reviewed academic journal. We are here to chill and chit-chat with each other like buddies.

The stock cable and the superconductor are made of what? copper? silver? The website has nothing to say about the cables construction at all. Did you find the SC a significantly better cable with auditable difference? May reviews claim that the stick has better clarity compared to the SC. I...

RME ADI-2 Pro The Pro has balanced output

I got my amp this afternoon and hocked up the 1266.... HOLY COW!!! Is this real? Because it can’t be. The 1266 makes every headphones on earth sounds broken! I know what I am talking about. Let me share a little about myself, so you know where I come from. Few years ago I used to own Focal...

You make me feel extremely nervous about my purchase!

Hahaha yesterday I placed them on my head (no cable attached) and worked on my computer for an hour :sweat_smile: My only concern is about the two rubber strings on both side. When I expand the metal band o the max, it creates a tension on the rubber strings. I am not quite sure for how long the...

Finally I got my 1266 this afternoon :relaxed: Wow wow wow looks and feels great! SOLID Unfortunately, my amp RME ADI-2 PRO will arrive next week :triportsad: I will keep admiring the beauty of the 1266 till I receive the amp. Meanwhile, can someone tel me about the fit and the tilt methods...

I am looking for an answer too. I don't mean to lie down completely on a bed, just to recline on a lazyboy. I just don't understand the philosophy of having a headphones that shifts its freq response and sound every time you slightly the cups .

Thank you so much for testing the 1266 with the ADI Pro. Are you using a specific/brand adaptor? (XLR female to 2 1/4 jacks)

I would like to thank you all for the advice. I ordered the 1266 through the distributor in my country. I am planning to use the RME ADI-2 Pro FS R https://www.rme-audio.de/adi-2-pro-fs-be.html It provides 2.5 watts per channel on the balanced mode. What do you think of this Amp/DAC? I...

I am in between the Diana Phi and the new1266. Is it true that Diana Phi offers 90% of the 1266? Money is not an issue but I am too scared of the 1266 ergonomics. Will I be able to sit on a recliner leaning back with issues? I have been told that the 1266 requires sitting straight because they...

In the manual you can see ports (1,2 and 8). I assume that I will use 8 for the cable between the computer the iUSB3. What about the cable form the iUSB3 to the DAC, which port 1 or 2? Thanks
