Yep! Sorry to hear the show didn't work out. Enjoy Germany! I'll be doing France in June myself.

Yes, we will be beginning a Copper XL tour again for the states soon as well!

Thanks for the purchase!

Best,

-Seb

If during your stay in France you go to Paris, don't hesitate to let me know.
We can organize a mini meeting with some very nice and well-equipped french HF madmen !

Well, the right conX on my Code 23 gave out on me... been getting drop outs with different conX screwed on. Just dropped an email off at EA. Is this a sign for me to get spare cables? >..<

Had the same issue on my Cleo 2 on the left. It was loose cable inside the barrel. Just got it back and everything working fine again.

It's just come to my attention that I have no idea as to how to determine which ConX (2 pin or MMCX) is left and which is right. How do I tell so that I can screw them in properly?

Their advertising images show the dot on the 2 pin to the outside with the R an L indicator letters to the inside.

I believe that follows normal convention with 2 pin identification.

With the MMCX It doesn't matter since the polarity will stay the same regardless which side you put each MMCX Con X, the centre pin of the Con X piece will always connect with the centre of the cable end regardless of which side it is on, I imagine that is why the separate MMCX Con X are not marked with a side.

More to come about code 24 vs 24c guys

So I tried Code 24 with Penon Quattro at CanJam. Yup, the hype is real. Amazing pairing.

Hi guys, I'm considering picking up either the ares s or the cadmus.

Are the 8w versions noticeably more bulky and weighty compared to the 4w versions? I intend to use these iems while I'm on the go, so having the iems rest comfortably on my ears as I'm moving is important to me.

Thanks!

Hi,

Ares S 8w = yes, this is a big cable (matter of fact) but not a monster, and especially not at all a chair stick : the ergonomics remain very, very, very good (very pliable, nice shape for the ear hooks, not (too) heavy as I think...)

I am very demanding regarding these particular points (ergo).

So no problem, for me, on the go (Ares S FE = special and rare version, 8w too but I know very well the regular 8w version)

Well the 4 wires version is naturally... we divide all things by two !

I’ve tried the Ares 4W and 8W and the ear hooks with the 8W I could see as problematic with certain ear shapes. I usually had to tuck them behind my glasses arms to keep them in place.

I did however prefer the sound of the 8W to the 4W

Oooohh I see thanks for pointing that out!

That might be a problem as I have smaller ears.

 

[DaveStarWalker]

About ear hooks and glasses (I wear glasses ...)

1/ Take your glasses off
2/ Put the cable on
3/ Put the glasses back in place
Enjoy

This is true with every cable.

I'll add that with both the Ares S and Cadmus (4W) both can get a little tangly. I upgraded both of them and while they are thicker, they are both far more pliable and manageable in the 8W weave.

Circle on right side means right connector, Circle on left means left connector... Thats how i see it

Hey! You are right on that but here is how you can determine if the 2-pin connector is fit for the right or the left side.

First way is that when you screw on the connectors, the dots should be facing outwards, meaning it should be facing outwards of your ear.

Here is an image of how it should look like on the left and right IEM respectively.

Another way you can determine is simply tilting the connector such that the 2-pin is facing upwards, and see which side the dots are. (If its right then its right, if its on the left, its left)
Heres a photo example of the right side for this method
