Oh I definitely have my doubts after reading this:
 
"Our driver is designed and produced in Russia, involving a facility that also houses aerospace and military projects, ensuring highest quality and durability."

But not in the "High-end" topic; It is undoubtedly a High-end product.

Viva Egoista 845 amp + Kennerton ODIN Headphone (Planar)


PS: for Wink

The peculiarity of the Russians: the love of music.
The peculiarity of the French : the "French touch" !

  ... a LCD-X killer ?

 
and a serious competitor for the Abyss, in perspective (for the price)

Most of, if not all, the older hifi/amps/tuners/speakers and headphones were made in Government run military factories at the time before the collapse.
There may be a similar setup existing still in places, if the tooling exists why not take advantage of it rather than reinvent the wheel.

"Superfred21": what is your opinion about the new headphone planar Kennerton ODIN (presentation, tariff range, performance ...)?
How you situated this headphone, compared to the competition: Abyss, LCD-X, LCD3; HE1000? 
With what amplifier choose for the best?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Eric

[bmichels]

I will get one as soon as I have my LCD-X sold

 

[eric65]

Sorry guys to wait for the fourth testimony (that of Frédéric (Superfred21)), but it is a perfectionist; its reports, of quality (well documented), usually worth the wait.

 

[bmichels]

Anyone compared the ODIN to MrSpeakers ETHER ?

Both are new promissing planar Headphones and the ETHER is soooo light & confortable !

 

[money4me247]

lol... $2,250.00 for a company's first planar magnetic attempt...
 
outprices the majority of planar magnetic flagships except for the abyss and he-1k.
 
hope they know what they are doing.
