To owners of DM, could you please compare the new PRO cable (black), the old cable (pink) and the Kotori Carbon?

Curious if anyone's Titan tracking number is working yet? I still get "Sorry, there was a problem" when I check mine with Royal Mail.

After Ott and Ajja & Cosmosis, what next?
Alien Jams is a one of a kind album that really just stands above everything else in its genre. Masterful compositions and genius level mixing. You probably won't find others like it out there.

Billy Cosmosis creates his own stuff as well. Look for Ibiza Jams. It's good.

Ott is in a class of his own with regard to psy dub and his albums are genius level productions. But Globular is right up there too and they have several good albums. I would put Green Beats in this second tier as well, right behind Ott. Green Bears has a ton of great music out there.

Then there's "the rest". Other artists that make good stuff but not quite in the same league. Slackbaba, Psymbionic, Kaya Project, Warp Technique, and others. Psymbionic - Vision is one of my favorites from this group.

That should keep you busy for a while. Enjoy!

Yup, got lots of EE and Kalya in my library as well. A bit higher tempo than some of the other chill dub, but good stuff.

Someone here who had the chance to compare the IMRs (Avalon, Astra, Semper) with an Kinera Baldr?

My IMR sets extend more into the treble but the Sands is tuned better. The TSMR Sands are supposed to be bright sounding but with the PAC480 and foam tips it sounds just minimal bright. I tested all possible dip-switch positions but 020 was the best tuned one. The detail and seperation is the best on the Sands. It outclasses the Z2 by another level.
I received my Sands today (only took 5 days between placing the order and receiving them at my door in NY State, wow!). These are super-duper comfy in my ears, almost like they were custom made. Just trying them out of the box with the stock cable (I also have the PAC480) and my standard Whizzer SS20 tips. I wouldn't call these "bright", but they are definitely on the cool side of things and the sound is crisp and clean, but still relatively balanced with the 020 setting. I tried 100, but it was too V-shaped for my liking. Going to let these burn in a bit to see if they change, but I like the tuning out of the box already.

I'm surprised how much detail and huge stage there is with the Sands, but still remaining relatively balanced. They are analytical, but not sharp or shrill. The treble is controlled very well. With my IMR sets, the bass provides a strong foundation for the sound, which I miss with the Sands. They're a different breed, which is fine. I do not find anything about them objectionable in the least. Very happy so far. I may try tip rolling and definitely going to use the PAC480 cable sometime in the near future.

Again, thanks for the head's up on these. I'm still an IMR fan boy, but these are a pleasant surprise and a totally different type of IEM. A welcome addition to my collection.

The more I use the ozar the more impressed. Real gem for the price
