ah... but you are on the road, it's great to have one package that does it all 🤗

I had the N8 too. It was good during its time. It had a very dense sound for sure. But probably not as versatile as the E7 with its 3 tuning options.

Well, it sounds like you have not heard it yourself... and that could be the invested views of an owner. Whilst FiiO players are affordable and are powerful, they do tend to be more mid-fi. I have owned the M15 as well as the M11S in the recent past. Whilst they had their strengths, being TOTL...

Agree that it s a personal perspective and perception. I sold off my SP3000, as well as the rest of the AK DAPs I had because I found that it just did not do anything for me in the context of modern DAPs. For context, I have had all the AK flagships since the AK100. :)

Agree absolutely! Neither the RS6 nor RS8 did anything for me. I wanted badly for it to work so I would have a LP like DAP with streaming. Alas! It was not to be. But it is what it is. 😆

Frankly, I am not a fan of Hiby’s rendition of R2R. It sounds like there is too much attempt to sound like a DS. But of course YMMV. Yes, LP is quite unapologetic about its pure R2R sound.

Not quite sure where you read that. Especially about R2R. Until and unless there is a definitive statement from LP, one should not confuse statements of hope or conjecture with what are facts. ;)

Running Roon Arc on the iPad Pro and streaming to the E7. Magical how tech has progressed that I can listen to music on my Melco NAS at home in Singapore while I am in London. :)

After a day out in the usual mercurial London weather, time for some music with the E7. Love the work that the LP team has done with further improving BT streaming. The colour of the leather cover is distorted cos of the yellow light in the hotel room. :)

Yes. The E7 is meant to be a separate product line and it would not make sense for LP to cannibalise the flagship R2R and the portable R2R product lines. :)

No pressure. Good things are worth the wait. :) Yeah.,, the Singapore Girls never notice my state of the art FitEar Titan or DC Ti.., Just the ET cables… 🤭

Well, that really is driven by the questions from the interviewer. :)

[cross post from the the LP E7 thread} Just wanted to share with everyone this new article that Wan and the LP team were asked questions and answers were provided. Very informative stuff. :) http://bbs.erji.net/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2336083&extra=page=1 In in a series of 12 questions...

Haha! It is the same as yours, my friend. Just that it is in yellow lighting in the hotel room. :)

No other way to travel… I already showed uncharacteristic restraint. For a guy who does nothing by half measures. 🙊

Hahah! And this is after paring down how much I wanted to bring. You will recall it was 2 android devices and 2 LP DAPs… plus 4 pairs of customs with ET cables… 😆

Thanks man! I will look into this. :)

Haha! I look forward to more from @Aleksandar R. ! I already enjoy much joy from my electrostatic stack, my normal HP stack. I look forward to ribbon HP technology being taken further. I think we can only gain in terms of joy and sonic bliss. :)

Travelling, whether it be for work or on holiday, can be frustrating when the DAP you have cannot seem to bring up the log in page for the hotel captive wifi. Thank goodness for devices like Creative Technology’s BT-W5, a USB Bluetooth transmitter which allows the iPad Pro to transmit in APTX HD...

As I said in the other thread, thank you for a great balanced and informative write up. I chose the Immanis over something like an expensive watch to mark my 60th birthday in June. I now know I have chosen well: the Immanis will give me greater joy that will last a whole lot longer. :)

Thanks for a very comprehensive, balanced impression. And excellent guidance at the end to help anyone make an informed decision. I am now REALLY excited about the Immanis. Fingers crossed I get it in time for my 60th birthday this month. I was going to get something like a gorgeous watch. But I...

Never mind, chaps. All will come to those who are patient. :)

The E7 did very well with the M9+ streaming downloaded QQMusic and Apple Music via BT to the E7 on a 13.5 hours flight from SG to London Heathrow. Seasonal turbulence notwithstanding. And of course the noise isolation of the FitEar DC Ti was excellent as ever!

Nice story. And thanks for the thought. 🙏
