Any word on when we should expect the Meze 109 to drop? Seems like it's pretty far along the prototype process.
I was told June/July for $650-700Any word on when we should expect the Meze 109 to drop? Seems like it's pretty far along the prototype process.
Ooh nice. Thanks for the hot tip!I was told June/July for $650-700
I strongly suggest that as soon you see that pre-orders for the Meze 109 are being taken, order one immediately!Ooh nice. Thanks for the hot tip!
These were the show standouts to me:
HEDDphone – Heard these off the tiny Centrance Hifi m8 v2/Ampersand combo… biggest surprise of the show for me. These were awesome. They had such an effortless, yet punchy and crisp sound. Felt like the music was coming from a deep, dark hole out of nowhere. Nothing was offensive to me. Soundstage width and depth were excellent and I got really into the music. Many will not be able to get over the size and weight of these and that is totally understandable. I didn’t mind it. I sat there for a long while enjoying these… As much as I was floored by the Elite’s - $4k is a tough sell. I think at current used prices, the HEDDphone is what I took from the show that I will be going to seek out.
Also, the Centrance amps were small but mighty impressive!! Was amazed at how well they powered the HEDDphones!!
Also wanted to say thank you for @jude for the late night chat with Justin and me, as well as the rest of the Head-Fi crew! S-Tier folks! @warrenpchi and @third_eye thanks for chatting with me, and thanks again for the awesome event! If I missed someone... sorry, it's hard parsing usernames with the real names/people lol but, know I appreciate all you did! Very fun event!
p.s. man it is hard to capture the color of the Red October lol
Speaking from first hand experience or just extremely hyped?I strongly suggest that as soon you see that pre-orders for the Meze 109 are being taken, order one immediately!
WA8 eclipse is our smallest all-tube amp that is transportable (not portable) from room to room or to enjoy in hotel room when traveling.Actually Mike from Woo Audio was talking to someone else in the room who asked him how to swap the tunes, I learned something about the WA8, according to Mike it is a portable amp runs off battery that last about 4 hours and he said not to place the amp inside back pack. The amp requires ventilation. Only reason I didn't try was the setup for WA8 was pairing with a headphone I never saw, the headphone reminds me of my old walkman I probably giving it a bad impression.

Yup! the tubes are user replaceable and we have upgrades available.

Can’t be too hyped as I believe this was the first time many have heard them . I will say I did like them as a owner of the 99 Classics they dialed down the bass a bit and gave it a bit more high end but for me the price tag is a no go as $500 or so might have been better but close to $700 I think there are better but definitely comfortable.Speaking from first hand experience or just extremely hyped?
2A3 SET 6C45 (?) w/Alps RK-50 (not sure, but may be optional). It's basically a smaller footprint of the WA33, which sounded fantastic w/Diana TC and is a very appealing departure to their chassis designs, which should be released in a few weeks or so.
Completely agree. If they listed these at 599 they would have a hard time keeping them on the shelf.Can’t be too hyped as I believe this was the first time many have heard them .
