Rhapsodio thread

Solar, the 10BA masterpiece.

Compared to the Angie which is better ?

Agree with Lurk. Over the weekend it was USD1 to RM4.06. Best in 4 months! And if you get universal you save a bit too. Just don't get too tempted by the gold flakes.

Dem gold flakes are like a Rhapsodio trademark.

There's always silver...



My second Solar is almost with me. As always Sammy has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. Personalised service with a great turn around time.

Some similarities, but I prefer Solar.

I have an inner struggle.

To go custom, or not to go custom...

How's the isolation and fit on the Uni?

On the Solar? 
Isolation depends on the tip. Pretty good with Spiral Dots and even better with Complys. Just push deep in (ooo madam!)
Fit is good but SQ does depend on how well you fit them in. 
In fact I find the Solars have a very temperamental SQ and it varies quite a bit...

I said it in the other thread but I'll say it again, Sammy and his team are awesome guys, they showed the Echobox crew around when we stayed in HK on a recent trip and they were super hospitable!
 
And their IEMs...if only I was allowed to give my opinions...

This is the beginning of the second week Rhapsodio has had my molds. Sammy's not very communicative, so I'm not sure how long they'll take, or even if they've begun work on my order yet. Not that I expected them done by now, or anything. I'm just excited, and so looking forward to trying my Solars.

Did I understand correctly you were also going to write a review for the Solar? I really enjoyed your X7 review, that last line cracked me up.

Just checking in...

 
...or in other words: subbed!

Thank you. I most certainly will. Solar is an opportunity not to be squandered.

Like a nice warm bath?

 

 
Anyway, back on topic: listening atm (while typing this) to the latest Ray LaMontagne album (Ouroboros = Ray meets Pink Floyd) with Solar...
It just sounds simply amazing to my ears

My first Galaxy has been away for repair. It will take longer because Sammy is getting new sockets and I am waiting for that.

One Galaxy earpiece of mine cracked open when I pulled apparently too forcibly on the cable plug. Of course with Sammy immediate repair no questions asked.

That's quite worrying and I'm surprised because the shells look extremely durable. Hope it never happens to mine.

They didn't break, they split along the seam. Mine was one of the first so maybe it has something to do with it. Anyways Sammy will sort any issue you have.

Moving my Solars in... Sammy came up with this idea for fun - A pair of separated shielded OCC cables for Pono Player in balanced mode, looks stupid but sounds great
