Atrium is a great choice!! When I had asked Zach directly about that, he said the type of wood plays less of an influence on the sound for open backs really. Unless the wood is really soft, the variation in sound is going to be minimal, according to him. Where it plays more of a factor is for...

I love the look of their silver cables! I just got the Euphoria last week and it’s beautiful. Bright silver look to them is stunning. Also, it’s a beefy cable! The Opera I had (now sold) was thin comparatively. Even compared to the Talos, which is a thicker cable, the Euphoria is a little...

PassionForMusic was a wonderful buyer. Definitely an asset to the head-fi community.

Echo is a wonderful, wonderful seller. Super easy to work with and an even better guy to chat with! Definitely will be working with him again and again!

That’s awesome Alan! Would love to hear the Susvara Unveiled! Crossing fingers that things will align.

I am selling my Arctic Cables Opera v2. The reason for the sale is that I just upgraded to the Arctic Cables Euphoria, so I’d like this to see this go to a good home. This has Furutech connectors. 3.5 connectors for Hifiman and has a 4-pin Balanced XLR amp termination. The cable length is 5...

My system is all set up in my new home! Two 2A3 Two 6C45 One 5U4G

I’m interested it going! 30 minutes away, even! Got something presently conflicting, but will certainly see if I can rearrange my schedule!

This is awesome! Although, my Woo Audio WA23 is all packed up as we are in the process of loading up the moving truck this afternoon. Probably won’t be able to take pictures for a little while..

Thanks!! Also, thank you again for them! Great looking pair and they are certainly getting some good use!

Lycos was a fantastic seller. Received the item very swiftly. Definitely would do business again!

Thanks for that! Yeah, the vent sits right in a place where i can rotate it into place to be mostly covered on the CP622B, but I just didn’t know if that was the intended purpose or not. Good to have some additional context, for sure. Raven’s are chunky!!

It’s highly subjective, but I would say yes. That’s with a big caveat, though. The Susvara can be run on lower tier electronics to loud volumes, but loud is only one part of the equation. The Susvara is very revealing of source chain changes and the scalability is nearly limitless. And...

I definitely do! Did today. No drips, though, since the cable was tucked in my shirt.

I really need to spend more time with the Meze lineup. I heard the Elite last canjam and enjoyed it for the brief time they were on my head. Hard to make a solid judgment while listening on the showroom floor, though. Really want to hear the Empyrean II and the Elite again to compare them...

Those thiefs! You gotta watch out for that veterans guy… shifty… hahaha Met/chatted with him briefly at the Rosson meet up back in 2022 (?).

Definitely need to wear a name tag for sure! Those personalized wooden ones I keep seeing in the OG WC thread are fantastic!

Same! Although the vast majority of you I will be meeting for the first time.

Where was the invitation!?! All good, there’ll be more opportunities.

Question for you experienced Canpur or CP622B folks— there’s a vent on the back (upper portion) of the IEM, is this supposed to be open or covered by your ear? Does this have to do with the BCD driver and should the vent be “venting” at/touching your ear? Or is it supposed to be kept open to...

The Opera is fantastic with the Susvara. I have the Talos v2 and got the Opera. I ended up only using the Opera and then getting the Talos reterminated for the Atrium. I’ll be getting the Euphoria soon (not sure exactly when, but soon), so I’ll be able to compare that to the Opera.

You might also be able to Op-Amp roll with the Burson to help alleviate the treble sensitivity. Just another possible and relatively cheap solution.

Susvara is pretty neutral, so there are certainly other HP that are even sharper up top. That being said, chain dependency can definitely help. A tube amp certainly can help. I’m not familiar with your Merason DAC, but DAC’s certainly can also reduce the bite from the treble. EQ even could...

To be fair, every reviewer is not created equal. I like Sandu’s reviews overall. Don’t always agree, but he is pretty thoughtful and thorough. There certainly are other reviewers who don’t do a great job, but still get paid for it, too. I don’t put a ton of stock into many reviewers, but...

That’s so great to hear about the Envy. I know it’s a real contender, but being transformed because of the May, that’s awesome! I agree, the WA23 sounds great with practically everything that I’ve connected to it, both up-chain and down-chain. I really, really enjoy the May with the WA23, too!
