Well I did some exhaustive A/B’ing between the old and the new Andromeda last night with the DX220, stock amp 1 mk ii amp.
I a/b-ed the New Andromeda versus the old with cables (new/new cable, old/old cables, new/old cables) - and also included the Solaris and Vega in the mix.
Same tips, same dap.
Its hard to really say because my Andromeda is old an well used and from the first batch way back in 2016.
(Deleted as it started to turn into an essay. And i need to write it out fully).
Basically.....To my ears they have the same signature. The new Andromeda though seems to have more mids, even, coherant full bodied sound.
Very close though.
Who can tell if its new version vs original or just new vs old and well used? Not me. I’d need a recent (old style - unused) Andromeda to be sure.
More details when I write it all up properly
