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 see now...a written commitment to customers need to be taken as is...a commitment come what may

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...

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...

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

Tiny bottle of fish oil...

71 refers to the year 1971 when it was established, I think?

Where do I sent my money?

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

Can direct me on how to make a fitting appointment online? Cheers

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?

Loved my Sony 1Z so much...the SP1000 better impressed the 'ell out of me for me to part near $3.5K for it

I am using the Sandisk 200GB microSD card with my WM1Z...and it worked perfectly :thumbsup:

Good to see this thread revived...looking forward to more feedbacks from those who owned one. Will be making 3 trips to Japan between now until the end of the year so I will definitely check it out

How was the process of having one made in Japan? how many fitting/impression do you need to go through and most importantly how is the sound quality?

I would guessed there are some "less than 5-stars" reviews in between...just that there are now no-where to be found

Like I have said...some guys just take a piece of their gear far too seriously, oftentimes without realising how lucky we all are to be able to splash this much money and resources on our hobby. I owned many Noble earphones...from the good old Noble 6 to the Kaiser 10 (that was my main go-to...

Fellow 1Z owners...I'm getting better SQ (dynamics and micro details) from selecting high gain than choosing low gain...even when both are played at similar loudness. Is that your findings too? Do share...

Many so-called "leather dressing" especially the cheaper ones are no more than silicone based dressing, which does more harm than good. It is important not to shop cheap and go for reputable brands with solid history in this industry. Leather are just like our skin...they need to breathe so you...

The 4-wire certainly don't sound like a copper cable at all...to me it sits at the top of my favourite iem cable with only the Leonidas 8-wire coming close. *of course I have not heard them all but I've heard quite a number

Guys just took it too seriously...god forbids if you express any negatives on a piece of their favourite gear. Try that in the Noble thread and see how long you last
