Sorry for wasting everyone's time.... Nothing new here. See ClieOS's post. My apologies.


Wireless Earbuds | Purchase DigiFi Opera Wireless Earbuds

So Engadget pointed out that these things have just been released. I have not heard them, or heard anything from Kleer. But I've seen a few threads which touted the tech's potential.

Now, with these things at $98, I'm seriously tempted to buy, but not to use their IEM's. It strikes me that for that price, these things should have some serious DIY potential. Anyone have any specs or info that would help to understand what sort of output is fed from the Kleer receiver to the IEM's?

I'm guessing it would be a pretty weak signal, but might it be enough to drive an earbud, rather than an IEM? If so, it sounds a lot more reasonable than the $500 Senn MX W1. Any thoughts?

Not quite a new news.

Wierd--I did a few searches, and that did not come up. I guess that this is just the offical US release, and not the announcement/international release.

Still, my questions stand. Should this be in the DIY forum?

After reading that thread a little more thoroughly, it seems that my idea isn't even original, but there doesn't seem to be anybody who's tried it, or has info.

@ClieOS, I've responded to your post in that thread; have you tried fitting the PK3 into this system?

Oh well, sorry for wasting everyone's time. Happy New Year.

There are two version now, the S1 and the S1+. For the low price it really worths a try.

To complete this discussion you now have the OPERA S2 for sale in Europe, USA and Canada for only £68.50 on DIPeComm - HIFI audio wireless
The OPERA S5 for iPOd should be there during summer time...

i cant imagine the sound quality to be good when it's wireless

hmm... at only $90
these could be excellent candidates for recabling

much cheaper than the SA adapter.
