THE COMPOSER OPEN BACK FLAGSHIP by AUSTRIAN AUDIO
Apr 5, 2024 at 1:12 AM Post #2,926 of 3,207
A short report from my visit yesterday to Austrian Audio😎
It was fun talking to the guys again, as well as discussing the markets and what makes sense and what doesn't
(Audio/audiophile/non audiophile/measurements and other models of competitors etc etc)

Yes my dear friends.... a carry case for the Composer was thought of, so we get one💪👍
The Alcantara pads...the quality of the last samples from the supplier does not yet meet AA's quality standards😝
(This is about how tight the Alcantara is stretched over the inner foam core...we don't want these pads to look like from .....🙈 or from ....🙈🤣)
Now for the not-so-pleasant news: ....The carrier case and pads will not be available until the third quarter of this year, as AA is also dependent on its suppliers and
in the summer, we Austrians are not so efficient 🤪

The team around CEO Martin Seidl is already looking forward to meeting many new faces and old ones at the High End in Munich show where you can listen to the Composer as
well as the amp Full Score One.

PS.lol

We need a Composer 2 with better staging/depth.

There will not be a Composer 2...not in the next years 😎
(Anyone who knows AA knows that they only do what really makes sense and is expedient)

PS.but who knows maybe a simple upgrade😉

About a case generally: it is preferable to be small, rounded and hard enough to retain its shape under pressure. A small suitcase-style case is not practical for trips. Some makers offer cases that become one more piece of luggage; not useful at all.
Compactness and efficiency is needed, just like DAPs.

Who knows...maybe they will surprise us with a case like the one they have with their Mic Creator 😎

Id also prefer as compact as possible and without the need to remove the cable (very important, but rather easy in this case)

@stersa Have fun with it 👍

NOMAX

PS.I also have it with the composer right now👍, even if it is different from my many pleasing hours with him before....Unfortunately I can't say more about it at the moment 🤫
(Now i begin to see.......it slowly makes sense to me why they chose a wedge-shaped foam)

If I were to give a personal ranking between Nutopia/OG and Composer, I think it would turn out like this 😎

Nutopia (2022)
Composer
Utopia (OG)

NOMAX

PS.lol

..... now 6 months later 😎

The Composer
Nutopia
Utopia

NOMAX

Ps.and the reason for this,when the right time is coming 👍
