Shure SE846 Impressions Thread
Been looking at the Linum. Looks nice, but it is a high price. Do you have the ear-hook version? Do you remember the name of the cheaper option?- chomskyan

Shure SE846 Impressions Thread
Just got these. I did not like them at all. Then I found the right sleeves. I started with the standard medium foam sleeves that come attached, plugged into my ADI-2: disappointment. The soundstage had the width of the box the SEs came in. Moved on to the soft-flex sleeves, the type I've grown...- chomskyan

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
Most worried about finding the right XLR cable that will work with the Elegia, probably gonna have to get a custom Corpse :xf_rolleyes: Seems like I might be fine with the front SE outputs though, since the Elegias don't need a lot of power. What do you think?- chomskyan

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
Turns out the Meze cable was fine all along! The culprit was balanced output of the iFi Zen DAC. I had received the Zen the same day, and tested it with the Meze. It was my only 4.4mm option at the time. I had concluded the cable was at fault, due to both the rear and front Zen balanced ports...- chomskyan

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
Ordered the Meze 99 4.4mm cable to replace the stock Elegia cable, which had broken in less than an hour. The cable-gods are not smiling upon me, as the 4.4mm end was half dead on arrival. This time it was the right side that wasn't working, when fully plugged into the balanced port of an iFi...- chomskyan

Good 4.4mm Female to 3.5mm Male Adapter?
Hi all, I need some help.. I'm looking for a good adapter for a Meze 99 cable. It has 4.4mm termination, and I need to adapt that to 3.5mm It will be going into a Dragonfly Cobalt, which I think is unbalanced? Do I need a balanced adapter if the Cobalt is unbalanced? I've found a couple on...- chomskyan

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
Sent an email a bit ago about the cable, hopefully they replace it. They refunded me 200 after I called them out. No response, just a refund. Ha.. Which cable did you go with Croc?- chomskyan

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
I stayed away from the NewFantasia's because of a post I saw in this thread, but they were tempting because of the price. I just ordered the Meze 99 cable, do you think it's worth it? Meze is a balanced cable, and I don't have a balanced dac. Should I go with the NewFanstasia instead?- chomskyan

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
I bought a pair of these on Amazon, supposedly new. Right out of the box, there was a strong odor. Perfume-like, emanating from inside the case. I unzipped the case and found the source to be the pads. It's not an unpleasant smell, just very strange. Ironically it smells somewhat like a high-end...- chomskyan
