    Dita Audio Flagship - "The Dream"

    Can you share a bit more of your experience pairing Encore with OSLO? Listened to the final-tuned Dream XLS and I must say I loved the sound of this...fast, coherent, spacious and able to dig out lots of details of a track. If you like the original OSLO, this updated cable is pure heavenly...

    Look out for the improved Dita OSLO cable...ergonomically much better than the original and I was told the cable internal are also much improved. Still Japanese made. Have not a chance for A/B comparison other than it matched the new XLS beautifully

    i understand where some of you guys come from, and not defending any business with bad customer services whatsoever, but i will give them a pass for this 'once in a year' local trade show that will stressed their resources to the fullest. No doubt there are lots of business partners in town...

    Acoustune HS1690TI

    You’re about right..tried out the 1690 vs 1670 vs 1650 and the 1690Ti matches my listening taste the best. Bass are well controlled, better instruments separation and everything just sounded more coherent. This is one heck of an iem for the asking price...needless to say it will be coming home...

    Dita - Project 71 aka ‘Bumblebee (2019) & Sakura 71 (2021).

    Pretty flexible so ergonomics are a whole lot better than the Truth cable...yes the Truth cable can be a challenge some time

    Cavalli Audio's Liquid Carbon Owners Impressions

    Unfortunately all warranty are deemed expired now that Cavalli has shut up shop for good. I shall cherish my LAu (and LC2) for as long as my ears holds up

    Still digesting this piece of news. The LAu will always be cherished by me and I was very much looking forward to the Liquid Tungsten, but alas family and health will always come first. Wishing Alex all the best with more quality family time

    Looking forward to it. I have all three...but my Zen is a 8-wire config. For some reason (likely due to mathching) I'm liking my Ares II a bit more but they are all very nice, affordable wires. Time to give all three a back-to-back comparison again

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    Was just about to type the same answer...most, if not all are Made in China. I picked up a couple in Japan then later another one locally at near half price all are about the same quality, and yes Chinese made. The only difference are the packaging and the branding outside the box.

    8-wire gold plated silver...interesting. How are these different from a 8-wire Mars?
