oh these were for the Harmony series fans

oh good thing you heard Focal Utopia, did it give you an idea or two? 

 

 

I don't know honestly... They sound good for sure and they have some cool qualities (soundstage!) but things like iSine10 were more inspiring for me TBH.

The 8.2 is great. I'm not sure they need another flagship now.

am i the only one who want to see new flagship from Peter?   or a new CIEM series. or new flagship series with different tuning <3



maybe Peter need to listen to Focal Utopia and get inspired by it :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

No Shin, your are not only, I want to see (listen) new flagship from Peter, too. Not only flagship, others model too. I miss old signature CA like Pro330, Pro210, all new models have to much bass to me. I really want see and listen CA CIEM like combination Etymotic ER-4S with ER-4SR (detailed, fast, textured, kick, punch, flat signature) or Pro330v3 (more detailed, resolution, textured and a bit faster). This is my dream/hope.

As much as I'd like every CIEM company in the world to pump out new flagships every other Sunday, I think we should take the time to appreciate the sheer marvel of engineering the manufacturer, in this case Piotr and CA, has achieved in order to present us products of such a pedigree, and realize that marvels are fundamentally incredibly difficult to accomplish.

As a sidenote, let's not forget that CA has their upcoming FIBAE line-up, which has piqued the interest of many among us, I'm sure.

R&D takes much time and cost, driver selection, tuning & process. I think for product like Harmony it should atleast have a life span of 1-2 years to get the returns.
FIBAE especially single driver is marvel. One driver and so spacious sound & natural. er4p users keep an eye on it.

The H8.2 is a true flagship with a totl sound performance. Its easy to see and hear how much effort and meticulousness has gone behind its design. Really, its not just a minor update or rehash of the previous flagship.

Ofcourse I want more from custom art in future but the h8.2 is here to stay for a while. When a new flagship comes, I just hope there's an upgrade path for existing Harmony owners!

Thanks!
And since we speak of FIBAE the very first batch of customized drivers for FIBAE has been ordered

Nice! Means it might be available right on schedule at the end of this year?
 
The single driver FIBAE was nice, nicer than Music One. It's literally the Music One but less bright with more bodied sound.
Might be an option for backup IEM if I ever need one

Super excited for FFAB 2 man!

Hello @piotrus-g . I understand this technology makes the iem less prone to getting affected by the output impedance of the source. Is there a sonic advantage with low output impedance sources as well?

I'd say so, although the proper launch will most probably take place in January. December is always crazy time for us due to Christmas

Yes, that's correct, the IEM is no longer dependant on the output impedance - you always get the same sound signature - no more bass roll-offs (!)
I think there's no right or wrong with output impedance. Low output impedance will be more "pure" design because that means no caps at the output, however I find high output impedance sources (such as studio quality sound cards) to be a bit more neutral sounding which can be a good thing if you are after more reference sound quality

Was hoping for the full lineup tour but I guess that would take more time 

 

[MuZo2]

Yes with full line up tour you cannot dedicate time for each gear and do justice specially to low priced iems.

 

[walbum4262]

Was hoping for the full lineup tour but I guess that would take more time 

Music one, music two, pro 330v2, EI.3 and EI.XX will come on tour in a few months, it's still touring here in Denmark

What we've all been waiting for: THE NEW CUSTOM ART WEBSITE IS UP.
 
www.thecustomart.com
 
And DO check http://thecustomart.com/shop/ you're in for a treat in terms of IEM personalization preview!
 
Congrats to Piotr and his team!!!

 

[Deezel177]

Beautiful-looking website guys! I love how you kept to the aesthetic theme of the old one but equipped it with a great interface and one of the most gorgeous IEM designer's I have ever seen, with correctly oriented left-right IEM's and all (I'm looking at you, Empire 

). Congrats @piotrus-g!
