Great success! I am looking forward to your impressions. Did you go Full Range or Reference?


Even with the Indiegogo price the Reference was more than double the price. I just couldn't talk myself into it.

Cavalli Audio suggested 150 hours of breakin for the Liquid Carbon. MIT suggest 48 hours will give you 75% of the benefit but full breakin requires 2 weeks. I have about 30 hours on the bass dongle and Audeze 4 meter cable.

If anyone is interested, I have a 4 meter OPPO terminated full range as I was thinking about getting the HE1K but decided against it for now but it was too late to change the connectors.

Is that 14 days @ 24 hours a day or some duty cycle other than 100%?

Holy shnikes! 336 hours seems like quite a bit of recommended burn in time. That kind of makes me wish I had dummy load (read: headphones I don't care about) to leave plugged in for 2 weeks straight.

Any one get a shipping email?

Is that sarcasm I detect J.P.?

I'm sorry... you were better off without that POS. If you waited a bit you might have gotten an upgrade to the much better IEM-X cheap.

Oops... misread / wrong thread. I should pay more attention to where I am. This is Vero, not Verb. :shrug:

The Vero is interesting and I can't wait to audition my own. Still, upon further consideration, it may have its issues, like high resistance.

I called because I never received a shipping notice. It looks like it shipped on the 4th so hopefully I will have it by Monday.

Is there any impressions?

 
I have been been trying to follow the MIT break in process but I think I will rely on the instructions from my Purist Audio CD which says using their CD, full break in on a new equipment cable is running the CD 5 times which is roughly 6 1/2 hours.  I just finished it yesterday and haven't really spent time listening yet.  I was breaking in the Fostex THx00 from the Massdrop and added the VERO through the Liquid Carbon.  I hope to get some time this weekend.
 
One comment I have noticed is the  Bass Dongle does not really seem to be any value with the Full Range cable as I didn't discern any immediate difference on a with / without basis but I will try again when I listen this weekend.
