The F5
There's something quite special about its delivery of music, maybe not technically proficient as the F7U but its very musical with very smooth mids

Another beautiful day today in BC ☀️. Listening to Diva on my Porch.

I heard this in Canjam. This demo version sounds different 😮. Fun engaging tuning for electronic. Impactful, slammy bass. Nice sub bass rumble. Smooth treble delivery. I told myself my next set would have a DD in it but I could live with this.

That Diva doesn’t have any venting, which the newer versions do. Maybe that’s the difference? I haven’t heard a vented Diva though.

More beautiful BC. Some nice reflective symmetry. Really felt like spring today.

Same DAP (SP3K), same tips, same switches I tested in Canjam. My favourites are the medium and max bass switches

It could be the difference. This seals very well. Not hearing much outside noise. The venue had a high noise floor so it could have bled into the playback.

Man this set is addicting to listen to. I can already see this taking a spot in my top list. Lee needs to amp up his production.

Been having a lot of fun since adding this lil guy to the stable! Awesome pairing with the Meze Elites and I’m really digging the Crossfeed and filters as well!

Gaea looking skies.. I dig it. Summer feels right around the corner.

A delivery from my neighbours down in Vancouver.

First FIR, going in, wish me luck.



Will post some impressions once I've got some real ear time in, just needed to gush (and share).

Congrats 🎉. I like the styling. Reminds me of X' faceplates.

Leicas are an artist's camera for sure. I was at the camera shop checking some out right next to this vintage Leica fan!
Jason Mamoa 😮

Fully agree. I just got the Ghost edition to complement my Q2M and M11, and absolutely love the simplicity.


Looks clean 🔥. @warrenpchi I was eyeing the Bond Daniel Craig version with the gold accent. Matches the XE6 me thinks.
