Very beautiful indeed.
USSR touch revival ^_^

 
Hi, Jérome.
 
Russian pride is not dead after the fall of the USSR; Kennerton can be proud of his Odin all dressed in red, like their old flag that we see in this picture.
 

 
Another era also, that of the space conquest, with the two giants of the time here gathered for a common space mission.
(NB: no French flag in this picture, curious!

)
 
Currently, Audeze and JPS labs, for USA and Kennerton, for russia, represent the best Ortho headphones, for these two nations.

2nd pair of Odin's in the house!

 In sapele this time, with cable upgrade. It sounds excellent, right from the start. A little better even than my first pair (probably the cable). But subtle fit and finish improvements too: the leather ear pads look/feel a little better, and the leather headband is softer. So happy with this marvelous headphone. Bravo again Team Kennerton!

Cool!

By the way, "Welcome to the One-Odin-Is-Not-Enough club", officially :)

What wood is your 1st Odin again?

Ha ha, thanks! 1st Odin is walnut. It feels a little decadent to have more than one. But if you really love something...It's great to have a back up, or even just the occasional switch-up for a slightly different flavor. Like having different guitars. And then just the sheer collectability factor-- which I know you all can relate to, lol.
 
Now I both look forward to and fear what they come up with next. There goes my wallet again...

Ha, ha ... Indeed, it is little decadent to have two Odin (perhaps the beginning of the end of our civilization ...

), but we take our actions perfectly. 
When we love...
 
On the French forum some people think  that I'm "crazy", because too enthusiastic for the brand Kennerton.
I smile; this headphone brand does not leave us indifferent.
 
Seriously, as you I appreciate my two headphones Odin because they each bring a slightly different flavor to the sound (one is more oriented towards classical music, with my mk1 Odin with a hand-made cable Litz wire (Vectura C) ; my Odin mk2 is more oriented for pop / rock / Jazz music, with its cable Kennerton in Litz wire).
 
These two headphones have also a different aesthetics : one is light-colored wood: the mk2 Odin wooden in Karelian birch (glossy lacquer) ; the other is more dark in color for the wood, the mk1 Odin in Sapele wood (with a matt varnish).  
 
These two headphones give me a lot of pleasure and I do not regret to have both...

Congratulations, and welcome to our Odin fan club, a little crazy
