Oh you should've joined us. It was a awesome night!
Yeah, really sorry I had to miss that!
Meanwhile... Here's what i've been up to whole morning.. experimenting with the "Lionheart 8w"

Oh my... I know my wife would kill me, but that Lionheart 8-wire might just be worth it! :D Love the braiding!

How is the sound?

Will you be using it for your LCD-i4?

Oh my, I think we might have a singularity here. Let's do the math... SP1000 + Horus + LCD-i4 = :ksc75smile: Yes, as I expected... That is one singularly happy head-fi'er! :D (See, I know how math works!)

Yep, LCDi4 and SP1000ss ;)

If you've got a order number for me, i'll personally make sure it goes on priority - Perks of being part of our Head-Fi EA Thread Community :D

How is the sound?

So i had more time to listened to em' today. (Yesterday was mainly a hilarious scene of EA staffs prying the "Lionheart 8w" from each other and i thought i'll stay outta it :D). Is it weird for me to leave short impressions on my own products? Tell me if it's weird, i'll stop doing it lol.

What really strikes me from the "Lionheart 8w" is the mesmerising lows. It isn't about quantity or the impact; It's the layering of the lows that is portrayed. I felt that the lows were very elastic and dynamic..almost a little bouncy' & wet, while having a very distinct layering to it. You know how in live halls, drums & snares would kick and echos after the initial hit in diminishing waves? Yeah that's what i got from the "Lionheart" and im pretty impressed by it's portrayal.​

Well, don't take my word for it. Afterall my position is a little too unique to be sharing impressions. It's just that @Wyville ignited the audiophile in me :) I'll arrange for some review opportunities soon and we'll let neutral 3rd parties share their impressions :D

You guys could start with a meet somewhere for the local reviewers.

Hmm, doesn't look like I got one, if you don't mean the Paypal transation ID. Probably because I ordered directly by email and not from from the site. It shouldn't be hard for you to find me, I'm the swiss guy, Andrea. :wink:

Thanks for sharing that Eric, I really appreciate it, and it sounds fascinating! I think that for a lot of people it is still unclear what can be expected of an 8-wire vs 4-wire, but then again, that might well be something even you guys don't know before you try it. :)

Hehe, I can just imagine the scene! People chasing each other, doors in faces and people barricading themselves in offices to try and get a listen in with Lionheart 8-wire! :D

Well, I am all packed for Indulgence in a few hours! I have @Oscar-HiFi's U6 with me, as I think Oscar will want to have his babies there when we demo Horus. Will be a great day!

You're right, its a wild card. With 8-wires we are almost certain some frequencies will be boosted and technicalities evolve but in actuality, we have no idea how it would actually sound until we listened to it. Oh man, its a shame that i have to miss Indulgence, do send some pictures our way. @Oscar-HiFi & Tony from Hifiheadphones are great peeps, do drop by and send them my regards. I feel bad that i couldnt be with them to support this show.

Enjoy your time @ the show dude!

Yes, shame we are missing another opportunity to meet up, but I am sure Oscar and Tony will do a great job at the show and I will see if I can share some impressions.

Yep, LCDi4 and SP1000ss :wink:

Please don't give me a glowing impression on the Horus + LCDi4 pairing....otherwise there's a serious chance I could be taking a plunge too!
