It's like people forgotten about Leonidas.

I certainly haven't, but I did not try it. I had so much I wanted to try that I prioritised those that I considered realistic options for me to buy (Lionheart, UE18+ Pro), or that I might otherwise never hear again (Horus). By the end of my day I was getting quite overwhelmed by all the impressions, so I think I did good to be selective, and Leonidas might well come at a later day. :)

Everyone seems to be under the Horus-pocus spell at the moment. Meanwhile, I'm sitting here enjoying my Ares II. :D

edit: I think I'm going to (have to) try as well, during my visit to Jaben maybe this Monday.

Let me know when, dude. I'd be happy to run into you. :D

Pop down to lancing and you can test it along with the Piano Forte, and you will have more time and a quiet room :D

Will see when I can find the time, but for now I am enjoying your Eros II very much. ...and my Ares II likes to have its bigger brother (or sister?) over for a bit. :wink: A review of the Eros II will be coming up in the not too distant future!

Is Jaben and MS lumped close together? Can you name some hotels around that area so I could look up on Agoda? May plan fall 2018 to get ear impressions @ MS for the Prelude.

The Jaben @ranfan and I were talking about is the Indonesian branch in Jakarta. The Jaben in Singapore is two-train-stations-and-a-five-minute-walk-away from Music Sanctuary. Hotels nearest to MS would be the Royal Plaza (across the street via overpass), the Grand Hyatt (right next to it), and the Marriott (a block away). If you're planning on coming over to Singapore in 2018, might as well visit during CanJam SG if that's an option; great discounts and tons of new products to try.

The Horus:

I asked Jaben Indonesia at STC Senayan whether their Horus is a demo or a retail unit. They told me it can be demo'ed and purchased, so I'm guessing it's an actual retail unit that they let people audition. An impromptu recording session tomorrow has unfortunately delayed my Horus audition to Tuesday, but that is of course if @ranfan doesn't buy it before I get there. :D
