Obviously have to take into account the DTE900 has 2 tuning switches, so that's four settings: 0-0, 1-0, 0-1 and 1-1. I don't know what setting the above graph is taken from

Reminds my of my favorite set Xenns Mangird UP, looking for a replacement since my up like all Xenns seem to get is channel imbalance.

The DTE900 is now available to order from Penon and Sound Rhyme direct via their Ali express shop, custom option is also available:

https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqUQT8w

As I had an order placed for the SA6 MK2 with Penon, I’ve upgraded/amended my order to the DTE900 instead. Expected to be shipped on Monday. I’m a little sad I won’t have a custom shell design, but the default is really nice anyway, so I’m happy with it, and ordering then NiceHCK SpaceAUAG cable to pair with it.

For a 1+4+4 Tribrid its pretty much unbeatable for the price. Obviously it still needs to sound good. I look forward to comparing it to my Penon 10AE

Here are some images for AE store showing the different tunings with the switches:

Wow you have the duo!!
What do you think about the sound?
I had the OG dte900 and the new shell and design is totally different!

No unfortunately not. That picture was provided by sound rhyme themselves.

I have the DTE900 incoming next week though.

What was the OG version like?

I'm not actually not a fan of the pictures they posted of the DTE900 but the ones they shared with Danx3k look great. I would guess it's luck of the draw on how much of the purple you get? I would prefer it more subdued.

Edit: lol nevermind same drivers as the SR8 with the DD from the SR7 I assume.

Took some time, but I am now joining into the Sound Rhyme family :beerchug:

DTE900 is ordered directly from their store on AliExpress, in custom design.
Looking forward to this, hope the design is as nice as in photo.

Lots of options in my options that can look awesome, did go for red and blue combo. Which type I can show when it arrives 🤣

SR5 deliivered to me for about 2 weeks plus now.

Boi, it is sharp, too much for me. Now using a 18ohm impedance adapter and it aounds great. Tamed down most of the treble and bigger bass. Also tried 36 and 75ohm but too muddy. Using it with Nicehck black cat cable.
I tried an 18 ohm impedance adapter on my SR5. It definitely brings down the treble and ups the bass. However for me it also looses the clarity in the mids and highs.

I want to advice people choosing custom designs to ask SoundRhyme for larger actual faceplate photos before deciding, I chose the T02 3D design for my SR8 and I am slightly disappointed, thought it'll be some kinda 3D gold swirl thing in a sea of blue bling, came as some underwhelming insect wing, rice husk thing in blue.
