No idea, But VS audio store has the BL1 for $195.

For the record, the CL2 is amazing....

I still might pick up a dm6 at some point but there's no way it'll hold it's own against the CL2.

Could you give me a track and the part of the track where I could agree or disagree. I am curious.
Thanks.
So a 70's rock track and a particular part that CL2 does beyond many others. An opening bass line, the resonating decay of a bass guitar string or any subtle not so clear moment that a set with less resolution might miss.

Also don't forget to shock-freeze the cable with liquid nitrogen. My Hifi dealer told me that. And if you use shoes with special rubber soles, you get less distortion when moving.

As to ricing: make sure you only use Japanese short-grained rice from Shizoku island (no basmati or brown rice).

I found the best thing for drying things out is to stop by the drug store. When the pharmacy gets shipments they are always packed with big dessicant packs to keep pills from getting damp. Usually they will give you the packs for the asking. I then put 2 or 3 of the big packs in a 40mm ammo can with whatever I want dried out and seal it for a few days. The packs can be put in the oven at 150F to dry them back out and re-use them. Hope that helps.

Huh? I've not actually heard the dm6, but I'm not expecting a $200 multi BA set to compete with the CL2 when I think the CL2 is better than my CA Andromeda. I just recently sold the Andromeda and am hoping that the dm6 will be a cheap facsimile.

A track I find amazing on the CL2 would be bomb track by rage against the machine, or really anything by RATM. Sounds excellent on the CL2.

I have the DM6 and the CL2, and I can't think of a single track where the DM6 outperforms the CL2.
Maybe except some of the more poorly mastered tracks where the DM6 smooths them over because it does not have the same resolution as the CL2.
Don't get me wrong, the DM6 are very nice, but the CL2 is a next gen, King Kong ain't got $h!t on me iem.

"Everyone has limited knowledge which means that everyone's Truth will be different, but that doesn't make them more wrong than someone else. If a person says someone else is wrong he is wrong himself because he doesn't know that the knowledge of the other person is the Truth for him. But in the end, he isn't wrong anyway because the limited knowledge made him act that way."

No sweat bro,

I have O.C.D

Never mentioned DM6. I am about to drop my cash on the CL2 even though the rep for them was about as clever as a cup of dirt. Kind of guy you WANNA meet in a dark alley. The ceramic set they released 2 years back is the worst I ever heard in that price range. But ...I am interested.

BTW the Andro hype is a phenom of market hype. I loved the Comet and owner loved me.. was sent the ATLAS and did not love it. Guess who gets no love from the owner now :wink: If I hyped ATLAS I would be holding a Solaris with 2 vids online already.

People who pay do reviews. people like me who get free gear ( I often pay because my attitude limits my options) **waves at Campfire audio**....Free gear getters are promoters.
Mostly full of crap. Kitechaser paid so i consider.
