Excellent. It's really quite a beautiful sounding set. Give it time and hear how it gets better and better...

I'm already in line for some impressions, this unit seems to be the first of the next gen (so to speak, codec wise) bt headphone. Codecs matter less than the overall implementation of the circuit but it's nice to have a set that doesn't come with obsolete tech right out of the gate. Driver configuration is also quite novel

I suppose you are talking about the Apollo. I’m really looking forward for this one.I'm already in line for some impressions, this unit seems to be the first of the next gen (so to speak, codec wise) bt headphone.

Would be great if we could find out a little more about the Noble in-ear shown, John.

I built those around 10 years ago, the wood was buckeye burl.
I think I gave them to a friend in the UK.

I hope it’s not to soon to ask about the Apollo, but it will also work in USB mode right? In that case, will it still use its own DAC and battery?
Really excited about this one, I think will be perfect for work and I love the only Noble product I’ve purchased so far (the KK).

If using USB as an audio input/source the signal will run through the headphone dac (and will be processed in the dac) & the headphones must to be in "on" position in order to play audio.
If using 3.5 mm input/source
In off position, the input will not be processed by the headphone DAC
(ANC will not function)
In on position, the input will be processed by the DAC in the headphones. (ANC can function)

Could you please share some thoughts on the Alpha Ti, I’m thinking of pairing with a Lotoo Gold Touch Ti.

Have a quick look at my CanJam Singapore impressions from last year if you don't get a response:

Given that the OG response mentioned Rn6 and Ragnar I'd think Noble Onyx would fit your bill.

Just one more question: I suppose it is also compatible with the same EQ app used with the Fokus Pro.
