THE COMPOSER OPEN BACK FLAGSHIP by AUSTRIAN AUDIO

Apr 25, 2025 at 3:08 AM Post #4,786 of 4,830
I wrote in an earlier post that I was surprised and disappointed by the performance of the Composer with binaural recordings. I've rewritten the post substantially after re-running the comparisons and finding the Composer to be excellent with binaural (as I had initially expected). On reflection, I felt there must have been something wrong with my initial comparisons - which appears to have been true. I can't explain the problem with my initial comparisons - but I wasn't able to reproduce the original results - which just goes show it's never a good idea to rely on a single test ...
Can you share the link to your post again, please?

It gets even more awesome 😜

NOMAX

PS.Due to the other acoustic performances that this model will offer us through the other pads and spacers 😎
(Don't worry...the Composer won't give you a woom woom sound or any kind of dark sounding with these optional accessories👍)
Stage depth....Stage width....more space...less space...brighter....or a little smoother?
You can customize to your own preferences/genres😉
And thanks to the magnetic mechanism...all within in a few seconds👍
All together for only 3.000 Euro...and not for 4.000 or 5000/6000😂

I'm really curious to see who favors/prefers which of these four performances and to which genre✌️
Nomax, do you think there’s a chance AA will share 3D files for the spacers, so we can try to experiment with 3D printing?

I don't think that would do us any good...because you also need the right rubber to get the whole thing really tight😎
I know what the spacers sounded like at the beginning😆
(And about the look...I don't even want to talk about it🙈)

NOMAX

PS.And quite honestly...in this price segment there should be no room for experimentation 👎
Because at the end of the day, we pay for that the acousticians and designers do this in advance with their experience in order to achieve the best possible result for us👍

Trade fairs will also become superfluous one day!

Around 1970, 1980, hi-fi trade fairs were still very interesting, with all the big-name manufacturers present.

In Vienna, the HIT (as part of the Vienna Autumn Fair, a follow-up to the IFA Berlin). What went on back then is a pale imitation of even today's so-called high-end trade fairs!

At the same time as the HIT, a Hi-Fi trade exhibition began at the ScandicCrown Hotel (Vienna Handelskai). 3 floors of hotel rooms plus hall occupied. It took at least 3 days to visit both!

Nowadays, it's almost impossible to get something like that together!

Next year we have a home game😎...the High End will then find its new home in Vienna for the next few years

NOMAX

PS.Then I'll stay there for the whole week 😛
(In Munich i will be there only for two days)

What's the latest news about SUEDE pads, already seen in the wild?

I'm determined to buy the new suede pads, but I'm not sure if the spacers are worth it.
What do I get with them?

More Space...the depth of the stage changes 😎
The presentation is further away

NOMAX

PS.lol
