Wonder what happens when Annihilator is going "Ok Ok, that's enough!! Stop!" ? When it's going on a power hungry spree? This is what happens... :ksc75smile::ksc75smile::ksc75smile:

>when your tubes are so wild they have to be kept in cages
it's meant to keep the tubes from damage and the heat from scalding touchy hands or skins that got a bit too close. :wink:

But yeah, it does feel like a luxurious cage for the tubes, ain't it? :smile:

I'll keep you guys posted on what I discovered so far with them. So give me some time.

BTW for those who are curious, that's the Cayin HA-300 MKII. Insanely powerful monster of a headphone amp that has really incredibe level of control on sound spectrum, and a massive soundstage to match.

Did anyone manage to try Gaea and Diva at Canjam Socal? Heard that for Gaea the female vocals are outstanding at the given price point haha I assume Diva is male vocals focused then?

Just picked up these beauties
Effect Audio x Elysian Acoustics Labs Gaea
I'll shoot so me more pics tonight
.

Hello everyone 😃 Just a note on the cable - this is in it's prototype form, before the aesthetic uplift. The launched product will come with a custom designed hardware (Y Split, terminator and Cable sleeve) 😎

There shouldn't be any changes from the cable itself, right? Still same material and design besides the aesthetics?

What can you share to us about the material used? (looks copper/silver mix from surface alone)

That is correct, the cable material is final 😃 Can't wait for you guys to see the final cable aesthetic! 😉

For the material we will be using a mix of Copper Litz and Silver Plated Copper Litz. Imagine our Ares S and Cadmus had a baby! 😜

Yes! That is a rendered image that was done previously 😃 The actual launch cable's sleeve texture and hardware aesthetics might have some slight differences but the vibe would be similar 😬

Looks fantastic. Not everyday I get to see a blue-focused cable along with ornate designs that compliments it.

And the part of Cadmus and Ares having a baby...yeah I'm not imagining that... xD

Is there still a loaner tour going on for the Gaea? I got to try it CanJam SoCal along with the Diva and Annihilator and was blown away with all 3 but definitely did not have nearly enough time with them. I'd love to give some further impressions if that's possible.

I had the Diva, Gaea, and the Annihilator and they were all tuned more similar than different. Suffice to say they'd all be phenomenal for vocals. I would need more ear time with them to give further impressions though.

I heard this at CJ So Cal and it was probably my favorite of the day. I picked it up on a whim. No one was really promoting it or showcasing. Just found it at the musicteck table.

Is this tuned by Elysian? I'm sort of guessing Elysian tuned and designed, then handed over to Effect for production. Perhaps the long lead time of Diva makes this a very smart decision.

Great question! Sonically, it is co-tuned by both Founders of Effect Audio and Elysian 😎 Production wise will be from us Effect Audio.

The design went through several versions to capture the best colour, brightness and texture. Keep a lookout on the final production set!
About Ares S and Cadmus... well, let's obliterate that thought from our minds shall we! 🤣

Just curious as to why the cable in the picture looks like it has a 3.5mm single end termination, but the words say 4.4mm?
