It was supposed to be just a paragraph in my CanJam NYC report, but I decided to borrow Traillii Ti from Musicteck after the show for a few days to put together a more detailed write up and comparison without going by memory. Enjoy the read!

... and since many of you ping me about measurements, enjoy these squiggles :wink: Ti with stock (in red) and 1960 (in green) cables looks the same in the graph, while JP (in blue) is different across bass and treble.

Alex, you wrote the price went up, but this isn't a replacement of the OG, right? It's just a new project that lives alongside the OG bird. If I'm not mistaken the price for the OG didn't go up.

It did when it came out, because demand was too high

I’m in the process of slowing down a bit in this hobby for more important life stuff, but I really need something like this I think. Just a little FLAC player.
You should seriously look for Dethonray DTR1+ then. But remember no touchscreen and unbeatable sound

Couldn’t resist a recent deal on Amazon for the Hiby R3 II - love the size, not too small like the Shanling M0 Pro but still very light and compact… perfect for out walking etc.

Great thing about this hiby is you can boost it more with a dongle like this:

A 180 degree adapter would make that setup so much more ergonomic:image.jpg
Interesting, "pimp my Hiby" options :D which battery is that?

We hope to have a demo set in Singapore in April.

Quick points:

- Both wired & wireless

It's unusual to have hybrid drivers design in full size headphones, at least for the headphones I know, they are single type driver and one driver only. The technology has been trickling down from full size headphones to IEMs, now it may go reversed?

Yes, unusual, but Noble wasn't founded on being usual. In fact, it could be said, functioning outside of the box put Noble on the playing table.

Full Size cans is something I always thought was a pinnacle step & and here we are on the brink of it.

Took 10 years, but still a big accomplishment for a simpleton like myself.
