Visited Eric's a few days back for a chat and listened to some of his secret prototypes as well as the Socrates 8 prototype. Very kind of him to let me bring it back for a day to give it a good listen as I was late for an appointment by the time i could listen to Socrates 8.
Super excited as I can finally compare the Socrates 8 with the OtL. I will leave the deets till its release hah! According to Eric, this version is the final tuning but i'm not sure if Eric will do any further tweaking but imo, the current version is already bringing things up a notch from the 4-wire version
Eric is still very secretive about the final design of the Socrates 8 when I asked but I do hope he kinda retains the design looks that the current Socrates 8 has. Looking forward!

Literally told Eric to put me after the two of you on that list. Because I definitely wasn't getting the first 2 made, I'll settle for the third one.Heheh! Me too!
My first response to Eric after hearing the protype "How much, when"
Given the expected cost (roughly) It's a contender in the segement, for sure.
The Soc8 was originally planned for the Odin, and I had bought the LL Venom as a temporary measure until it came out. I no longer have the Odin or Venom, but I have no concern not being to pair it.
I heard what I think was the early prototype so final tuning may be quite different. But I don’t care, I’m all the more excited and wanting to be amazed without any preconceived notions. Perhaps I’ll get 2 muahahaha!
