@mrspeakers

By the way, has the pad problem that generally occurred with the Aeon been solved in the meantime?
Would be great if so.
Yup. The new pads, and aeon pads going back ~6 months, all have stabilized foam. For best pad life always store with the foam spacers that come with the headphones,

If you subscribe to their newsletter, you can order them with the 15% discount today :)
Thanks for the info
I got the 15% discount without subscribing.

This store is legit?

Projekt Akustik is absolutely legit and the 15% Code is mentioned on the Noire X product page too.

I just ordered the NX from Projekt Akustik with the BF discount. It works.
Just to give heads up, Noir X is the only headphone they've removed the discount in the afternoon. It was there today, but they quickly removed it, hate those kinds of shops.... all the other Dans headphones are available with a discount, what else to say except it's one trustworthy official dealer !

Car wax works pretty well. A little Carnuba wax goes on in seconds, dries fast and wipes off making it more resistant.

We will look into making fingerprint-proof plastic similar to what phones offer if there's interest.
I don’t want to sound rude or arrogant but I’m generally curious why would you use a glass at the first time?
It just adds weight and related glass ergonomics issues.

So here's something from my side about the Noire X
My first thought when I got it?

Probably too much in the low end again
I'm not a fan of too much..because it's not suitable for long-term listening via headphones
I put it on my head and pressed play.... and then I thought to myself
What is going on now?
The low end of the bass is much faster than the Stealth and the E3...a miracle has happened...after all these years of the bloated range...no sign of it anymore..well done👍👍
That's exactly how it should be...not too much...not too less
I don't need to say much about the mids and highs
Here Dan Clark Audio was always been ahead (he only ever had his weaknesses in the low end)
(Except for Corina....these headphones went completely wrong🙈😝)

From a purely acoustic point of view, the NOIRE X is probably the best of all DCA models...and that for 999 USD...Unbelievable🤣
(And every acoustician in Europe will see it that way when he listens to this headphones)
Friends Christmas is coming soon..... make yourselves happy and listen to this model...because if not you are really missing something
When I think 999 USD.....I can immediately think of 20 models that cost twice or three times as much and have the disadvantage here

I really can't tell you how happy I am personally....that I finally have a DCA that plays fast/hard and punchy in the low end....and not soft
I wish everyone a lot of fun with the X...or at least a lot of fun getting to know this model
Who would have thought that a model for 999 USD could excite me so much...I would not have thought it before😆
But unfortunately we live in a world where the more expensive must always be the better
Take your time...listen to the Noire X and you will realize that this is not always the case 😉

NOMAX

PS.plug and splitter looks and feels also better as on the Vivo Cable😉

4000 ... 2000 -a little better- ... 1000 -faster- $ (more in €)... What's next? 500 ... 300 (sweet spot :relieved: )

Not sure if it works though. Happy E3 owner here.

Sennheiser has used gorilla glass on their HD820 for years without issue.
