It still state in Product Guide, that they will supply 1.2m cable. Hope that it will be 2.0m.
It'd be great if it really does have such low distortion, whether we can hear the difference or not. However, you have to be very careful about manufacturer specs like this and frequency response, they can be very misleading. For example, the spec doesn't mention at what volume or power input the 0.01% distortion was measured. I mean, technically you could measure any headphone at less than 0.01% distortion if it's turned off![]()
Does anyone know if the pads are removable yet or do they adhere like the rest of the Audeze line?
Same goes for both directions. We really can't hear around 30hz at moderate volumes but we can definitely tell its there even on headphones. I'd imagine the same would be definitely true about higher than our ability to hear in the upper registers. I for one can hear up into the 16khz registers and can't definetly hear if a headphone is rolled off in that register.

Hi all.
I just wanted to ask. Is this EL8 can be driven nicely just with ak240 alone? I love pm1 with ak240. I think 240 have enough juice to drive pm1. Will that be the same case to EL8?
Thanks

there was some discussion on this thread about the cable length and audeze did seem to imply they may be changing the cable to 1.2m per the numerous requests.
I personally think that they should bundle a 1.2m cable along with the 2m cable, but if they only want to offer one cable, the 2m cable makes more sense as they will be releasing a shorter remote/mic cable for iDevices later on. Don't know if they will release a cable for Android/Windows phones.
Wasn't it the other way around? The original cable was described as 1.2M and Audeze responded by changing to a 2M cable - at least that's my recollection of cablegate....
Wow a 20 foot cable? That is crazy long, do you just have your setup further away or like the ability to move without disconnecting?
