That's what I thought as well
I have received a recent reply from Bob. I wrote to him about the congestion in busy tracks and comparison with the all ba unitRegarding polarity, Brandon replied: "This was only relevant for the original R1 from 2017/18 and has no bearing on any other product."
So ... differences people are hearing must be from actually reversing the polarity I guess.
(Once again, Brandon replying and not Bob. Interesting).
Is this what we need to do ? Put the prongs in backwards ?
Because I did and found significant changes.
All my cables have ear hooks .
Sound was tighter and clearer.
It's difficult to manage with reverse ear hooks.
I was confused so I just went back to the original 2 pin setup
Asking the obvious question: Has anyone ever checked with Bob or Brandon if this reverse polarity thing is true?
Just think it like a two pin electrical male plug. If the electrical socket is wired correctly from inside, then it does not matter in which direction you are inserting the male plug to the female socket.I'm just using the cable as is.
My ears can't make out any difference today. Plus the iem keeps falling out !
Which IMR is it? Very congested in theresome clarifications
That's what I recall too, but reversing the polarity made a change for me. I was surprised tooMany moons ago Bob stated that the reverse polarity issue was only with the very early sets and it's now as normal polarity setup.
This issue of the reverse polarity statements is cyclical comes around every other year.
But this looks like the right earphone.some clarifications
ENIGMA+Which IMR is it? Very congested in there
