So far, after reading all the reviews, I'm wanting my self to get one. Too bad no shipping to Hong Kong from Amazon. @wslee when are you going to start shipping outside of US? Thanks!

There is a shop in HK that have stock - search online for it... I bought from them 3.

Thanks man! I'll do some research tonight. Hopefully they still have stock.

This is the best option I've found for my Icarus III so far. Haven't bought one yet since I don't use the Icarus much but I'm still considering it....

How's this:

For some reason the link didn't show in my post but this was the one I was talking about.

Is there a version anywhere with a 90 degree plug for the 2.5mm end?

Can't remember seeing one. How would that work with the buttons on the ES100?

 

[posnera]

Don't care about the buttons. I won't use them much. I can aways rotate the plug if it is in the way.

Installed 1.2, but when disconnecting from usb charger, the unit turns on.
Is there a possibility to keep it off after disconnecting the charger following charging with power off?

Thanks

It's not ideal for the buttons. I use the CFA litz cable with the right angle termination and it is good in the sense that I clip the ES100 between my shirt buttons and it keeps it low profile but it does block the volume buttons for me. I could just turn the plug to the other side but it wouldn't orient nicely for the way I have the device clipped to my shirt.

I do have to say that even using a straight termination 2.5 balanced does hinder my access to the play/pause/power button too by its close proximity to the plug. I'd rather have the play pause blocked though as it is easy enough for me to access that control from my watch or phone so I wonder if an option of locking the source volume when the ES100 is connected and having the phone volume control the analog volume of the ES100 would be a viable option.

Phase check on oscilloscope uncovered sad fact that standard balanced cables for 2.5 plug on sennheiser have wrong polarity but also left and right amps have different rise/fall time and make something like 10 degree phase shift of L/R. I will study more and post later after plug resoldering.

Sorry, I don't see the download for 1.2.0c, only v1.2.0
Also, the pdf in the zip file does not say anything about brew or libusb

At this link http://radsone.com/EarStudio/firmware/v1.2.0c.zip The Readme file mentions those files. Sorry, I don't have MAC to test...

OK. I've found the c package and unzipped. I installed brew, waited for it to finish, then installed libusb.

Then I dropped run_macOS.sh into terminal and I am still getting this error:

/Users/xxxxxxxx/Downloads/v1.2.0c/run_macOS.sh: line 16: ./ES100_DeviceFirmwareUpgrade: No such file or directory


Sorry, all of this is foreign to me. Thanks for all your help.

After opening the terminal, you need to go into the v1.2.0c directory that is unzipped.
cd Downloads
cd v1.2.0c
./run_macOS.sh
Hope this works.
Thanks!
