For me - yes, Rah has what atens are missing, good mid frequency range ) After Rah it's so obvious that atens are really missing a lot here

I'm afraid it's not possible to say before we can listen to the Halcyon... PB one is a big update, we know it because we saw Rah and we know PB one is similar but with bigger planar driver, Halcyon is still a dark horse. I solved this problem by ordering both: I hope to receive them, compare...

Mee too... But I have a concern though. Given the price policy (used Atens are £120 now, I paid £360) and the speed of rolling out the new models - I have a feeling that the previous models are getting cheaper faster than other brands models. So you can't sell previous to buy newer and cover...

Don't you have a loyalty discount 35%?

"Only" 37 out of 100 is pretty much I'd say.. Because of timing / lots of announced models interest to them seems to be not so big?

Hmmmmmm Looks like there will be same DD as r2 and Rah have responsible for the bass, It probably will be not smth too different

Interesting about 100 instead of 200 - maybe, too much of new models announced and people are not so eager to buy R3 right during Rah are arriving/just arrived. Too much too often maybe?

Lack of that case in R2 kit became a real big deal for me (((

How does the small carry case look like? I had one with R1 Zenith, but my R2 were without a small case ((((((

Who has received RAH - could you share photos of what is included? Thank you )))))

Here is fresh announcement from IMR for 2020: ... So today I am writing to you to let you know what I have in store for you in 2020. I am limiting my special builds to a maximum of 200 units and limiting it to just 3 models due to the complexity and significant costs. All 2020 models will...

R1 zenith and R2 aten - I love both of them, in a different way, I have big expectations for Rah, ordered them same day when available. BTW there are few left for pre-order at the website, after sold they will not be available

I have Q701 and 400 and K702, I could try to compare, however, I am not good in describing sound (((( I will try to drop some impressions later this week

GMP400 are better to my ears, more balanced and natural, I'd compare 400 to K702/K701/Q701 instead, these are closer.

Yes, they worth buying nowadays, I believe I bought them for less than $200 Of course, listen to them first

I like my HD 600 too ))))) Together with few other "old school" not expensive cans: AKG K702+Q702 and German Maestro GMP 400; I guess these are really good sounding and affortable, highly recommend

I didn't like the 58x at all((( Unbalanced too "juicy" sound, really hard pads, It was painful to listen too. I have traded them to fisher audio ti003 which sounds much better for me. The new owner said he did a kind of pads mod and the sound became significantly better. What sound I do like...
