The JPS Labs: Abyss AB-1266 Impressions Thread

Good day Guys,

I really want to know if this TC version would be the final model of the Abyss 1266 series... Honestly releasing new updates every year is too fast, this HP is expensive and the previous models depreciate fast..... Ouch my wallet hurts...
They didn’t release a new version this year, so maybe they are holding off on releasing an updated version every year. That said, there are still 3 months left in 2020, so who knows? :beyersmile:

Abyss kind of took advantage of their customers’ good will with releasing 3 different versions so quickly. Whether intentional or not, I think they understand that customers don’t want to pay for upgrades every year

But, bottom line, the TCs are amazing. They are the best headphones you can buy:L3000:

Same question as the people who purchased the 1266 OG. Its a never ending upgrade journey just enjoy TOTL offerings today and not worry about tomorrow.

Couldn't find any sellers for Amazon Canada =( Might have to do a custom made one..
Interesting, I couldn’t find them on Amazon CA as well. Obviously, you’re not missing anything great from those $20 adapters, TC deserves a little better. Also, If you are handy with the soldering iron, you can easily make the adapter yourself. Just simple balanced wiring.

Yes, it can drive Abyss and sound very good, I'm in little shock.

I agree, they take the prize over the SR1a and Susvara.

Does anyone has any experiences with Abyss customers service? My experience with them has been quite frustrating so far.

I asked them last week if I could send my headphone to them for a check up. They responded that they can need my information which I submitted right away. Waited till this Monday and got no response, asked them again on the same day if I can send my phone to them, they responded again that they needed my information. Submitted again and of course, I don't hear anything in return. How can a good headphone company like Abyss has such lackluster customer service.

I’ve never had a problem they even swapped out my headphone that I felt didn’t work right without actually getting it checked out. I even smeared them but called Joe apologized and had a good conversation with him. I recently felt my 1266 had a bass problem and they quickly sent me the ra. If a problem happens they get back to me in time. You can’t look at people as robots sometimes things get by. Just need to continue to communicate until you get the response you are hoping for. Good luck.
