Went to CanJam yesterday, it was really cool event! Thanks to Head-Fi and CanJam team!
 
I was blown away by Hifiman Shangri-la, awesome 3D holographic presentation I never heard before from other headphone. Very natural and realistic presentation. And oh, the bass, goes really deep. Amazing!
 
Tried DUNU 2002, 3001, and 4001. 2002 sounds best for my personal preference. It has balanced tonality, very good and realistic bass, smooth and natural vocal and treble. DUNU 2002 was really nice!
 
Attended 2 seminars, the CIEM and Chord seminars. I asked the 4 experts, John, Jerry, Piotr, and Emil, about what would be the measurable sonic differences of the same IEM in universal and custom fit. And they said, as long as similar fitting and isolation, with similar distance from the drivers to the ear drum, universal fit and custom fit will sound at least 95% the same. So theoretically almost no difference between universal and custom fit when fitting condition is similar. I've been curious about it, now I'm glad I got the answer from the experts 

 

 
One day is not enough for CanJam. It was real fun and great event!

for me, 3001 is better.

Massive honour to meet @jude

 

[Kiats]

It was good to meet Jude yesterday.

But the icing on the cake was to meet Warren. And have a quick chat about Cavalli amps. I look forward to the new amps Alex and Warren will be rolling out in the coming year.

Classic photo. I can almost imagine the sonic wonder he must be experiencing from this Orpheus... anything else there that's even comparable - albeit even with a different sound character?

I can't imagine the SR-009 or the HE1000 are too far behind?!
Want to hear the Orpheus!

Let's not forget the Abyss...

Let's not forget the Abyss...

Ether C and Sonorous X also

Tee hee! Ok, ok!!
The SR-009, HE1000, Sonorous X, Abyss, the Ether C, the LCD-4 AND,.. The Hifiman Shangri-La,... Can't be too far behind!! Phewww!

But this is the place! So please peeps, anyone who listened to any of the above AND the Orpheus, give us your thoughts and comparisons, pretty please!

The legendary Orpheus

 

[tassardar]

I listened to abyss, Orpheus, Shangri la and sr009 (star amp and blue Hawaii)

I rate sr009(blue Hawaii) > shangri la> Orpheus > sr009(default) > abyss

That said this is all in a can jam noisy condition so maybe in a optimal situation they will shift

where is ether c

 

[tassardar]

I don't like ether to start with so rating it makes me feel bad :/ and I slot he1000 before abyss lol.

haha fair enough. Sonorous X is also in contention, easy to drive
