A thread for all things Immanis the new TOTL from RAAL
Can't wait for mine to get here!
A thread for all things Immanis the new TOTL from RAAL
Already answered on the SR1a thread.Do you have specifications for what a headphone amplifier needs to drive them exceedingly well?
A little easier to drive than the existing Raal’s but exactly the same requirements.Already answered on the SR1a thread.
The point of this thread is so that people do not need to refer to the SR1a thread.Already answered on the SR1a thread.
I'm disappointed that the VM-1a uses stepped volume control. I wonder how that will work with the Immanis.The point of this thread is so that people do not need to refer to the SR1a thread.
I believe to answer the question it is easier to drive than the SR1a but uses the same ribbon drivers so it will require a specific amp or transformer box.
OK I get that; apologies for my exuberance. But you’ve also repeated exactly what I said.The point of this thread is so that people do not need to refer to the SR1a thread.

Ah Cigga there you are. Aleks has already said that the Immanis will work with the existing direct drive amplifiers. Can you expand on why you are concerned?I'm disappointed that the VM-1a uses stepped volume control. I wonder how that will work with the Immanis.
He said the new 3 ribbon needs less volume. The CA is already not using that much volume on the VM. There aren't that many steps left. If it was a continuous volume control, it could be better fine tuned. But with the steps, there is no in-betweenAh Cigga there you are.

I'm always happy to see one over a potentiometer when better sound is the goal.I'm disappointed that the VM-1a uses stepped volume control. I wonder how that will work with the Immanis.
OK thanks I now see where you’re coming from. It’s difficult to turn down 2 or 3 clicks ( as Aleks said) when you‘re only using 2 or 3 clicks up in the first place.He said the new 3 ribbon needs less volume.

I'm at 4 steps on the CA, so I guess I would be at 1 step with the new Immanis? Seems problematic to meOK thanks I now see where you’re coming from. It’s difficult to turn down 2 or 3 clicks ( as Aleks said) when you‘re only using 2 or 3 clicks up in the first place.
Yes I have the same issue with the HSA-1b and my Nutopia and ZMF Caldera. The gradations in volume make it very difficult to achieve a comfortable volume.I'm at 4 steps on the CA, so I guess I would be at 1 step with the new Immanis? Seems problematic to me
I fear they are gonna make us get a new amp. I really don't like using the TI adaptor box, but we may have to. We shall see...Yes I have the same issue with the HSA-1b and my Nutopia and ZMF Caldera. The gradations in volume make it very difficult to achieve a comfortable volume.
