THE COMPOSER OPEN BACK FLAGSHIP by AUSTRIAN AUDIO

Canjam Chicago is dead, IIRC.

Like won’t happen again?

Like won’t happen again?

I think not in the short term due to the event not being well attended and close to Axpona.

Canjam does happen after Axpona week. Maybe AXPONA/Canjam in one show should happen

Did anybody else in North America get one besides Resolve and I? There are few sonic reviews. I remember the HD800 launch being all about "Flagship being plastic... pfffft"

 

[Not so fat head]

For dongle users that need multiple PEQ settings and even virtual surround (and further DSP features in the future), this is I think the best dongle money can buy at the moment:

Didn’t know about this…. Thank you…
I simply know what I like in a sound signature and can only (for me), get there through EQ.

Wait, are we still on foam? I feel like we were on foam gate for the entire month.

At the end of the day there's only one foam to be concerned about....

Only in Dublin is Guiness popular - the rest of the island is more in favor Murphy's - as am I

Do you buy a headphone based off charts without listening ? Composer has no room to worry as on paper it goes as low as 5hz like a champ. Will be an easy 1000$ and free lunch for Nomax

Are you suggesting that Nomax is a paid consultant for Austrian Audio? I hope you've got your ducks all in a row.

Like the Composer, Murph's is not as readily available on tap here in TO.

 

[Tano]

There's a bit of thread in this foam.

 

[PeterAES]

Has anyone had the chance to compare the Composer to OLLO S4X ?
Do the s4x stand a chance against them ? People say OLLO are very flat and honest, very real to the source.

I feel satisfaction complaining about poor value especially blatant scams. We all do it but personal relationships to manufacturer here make it hostile.

What are you getting at?
The foam is very firmly glued on. You tear it when you want to remove it. It doesn't fall off by itself, and you can see from the pictures that it is torn. I checked this myself on my own copy.
AustrianAudio (AA for short) therefore refers you to the dealer where you bought the headphones, as AA does not have branches all over the world.
However, this is the case with almost all products. If you have problems with your car and contact the manufacturer overseas, you will also be referred to your local dealer, and it's no different with your fridge, cooker, TV, smartphone, camera, etc.!

Now come on down!

Here lay the issue, you always throw out that same line. Yes sound is what matters but you refuse to acknowledge the fact of a not well conceived driver. To you that might be a sign of good engineering but to some it’s just a terrible driver made to sound good.

Why do you write such nonsensical statements without a shred of evidence?

 

[Nomax]

Are you suggesting that Nomax is a paid consultant for Austrian Audio? I hope you've got your ducks all in a row.

I have had a contract with them for decades...in which it is written that they have to satisfy me....This is my favorite form of remuneration
(Unfortunately, they did not succeed with the K872)



NOMAX

Ps.But they have succeeded with the Composer
