Warwick Acoustics APERIO and BRAVURA
Due to the very high voltages these cables are specially built to very precise tolerances. Even the Lemo connectors are not just off the shelf. I doubt that they would be willing to allow any third party cables into their system. That’s a lot of voltage! I have the Aperio and the Bravura...- BTD1

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
I have written to them and asked those questions. I am just waiting for their answer. Maybe it’s just bad luck, but maybe not. I’ll wait to see what they say.- BTD1

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
So, I received notice that my 10 month old Phantom that I sent in for repair because the bias cards stopped working, has been repaired. The main board was replaced. I am not an electrical engineer so I am wondering what happened? The unit was less than a year old, and I used it infrequently...- BTD1

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
I have encountered a problem with the Phantom. My unit will no longer recognize that a bias card is inserted, so the unit will not output sound to the e-stats plugged in. I have contacted support, but I'm wondering if anyone else has had issues with their unit? I always wondered if having bias...- BTD1

Introducing the CORINA Electrostatic Reference Headphone
For me, the sense of space, airiness and openness you hear with the x9000 is unlike anything else I own. It is very good with most classical music. You can hear the individual layers easily. The Corina is good, but to my ear presents in a more traditional way. It has solid bass and can be...- BTD1

RAAL 1995 Immanis
The weight has been mentioned. Did you perceive any problem with comfort? Do they move around or are they firmly clamped? Did you feel pressure wearing them? Thanks. I have ordered, just checking to be sure.- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
Loved the Jordi Savall Carlos V. I can't get enough of sackbuts and cornetts. This goes into my early morning listening playlist! There is so much texture to the voices and instruments in this recording. Can't wait to see how the Immanis handle this.- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
CanJam 2024 was here in NYC in March, but I wasn't aware of the Immanis then. A missed opportunity. Estimates for delivery are mid to late summer so that gives me time to try to find one to listen to. My regular dealer here in NYC is Audio46. They are very good about demos of equipment...- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
Good to know about the possibility of being underpowered. I have an IFI ICAN PRO and an ICAN Phantom on hand that have more power. I can always pull these out for testing if the Immanis seem underpowered. I suppose a Ragnarock 2 speaker/headphone amp that's in the closet now would provide...- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
Thanks for the clarifications and suggestions. Yes, I do have a few amps sitting around that I can try along with the HA200. As long as I know that neither the amps nor the Immanis can be damaged by a standard amp through the interface, I will experiment. After a certain age, new technology...- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
Please excuse the dumb questions, but I know nothing about ribbon headphones even though I have ordered the Immanis. Will an electrostatic headphone amp work through the interface included with the Immanis? I assume it wouldn't but I have not seen this question addressed directly. Also, again...- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
So, Aleksandar R since your are very familiar with the HA200 and the Immanis and the Ha200 allows you to select 8, 18, 25, 40, or 80 impedance. Am I correct to assume selecting 40, is what I should use for the Immanis? Thanks- BTD1

Thanks for your help. After the Aperio, x9000, Susvara and Solitaire P, I am really looking forward to experiencing the Immanis. So many on this forum have praised Raal headphones that I have always wondered what I was missing. I can’t wait to try these!- BTD1

So the label above the Immanis 4 pin female connection on the interface to the headphone amp says 32Ω. I assume that I would select this value on my HA 200?- BTD1

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
I am hoping someone familiar with the tech behind Raal ribbon headphones can help me determine if my T+A HA200 with selectable output impedances from 8r - 80r will be appropriate for the Immanis headphones with the built in headphone stand interface. I have preordered these but since I have...- BTD1

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
I understand your hesitation. When I got into e-stats a few years ago I was pulled down the bigger, more powerful, more esoteric rabbit hole. I was driven to keep upgrading and to buy more expensive equipment than I really needed or would ever use. I am trying to think differently these days...- BTD1

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
Since I already have the ifi iESL which is now built into the Phantom, I was familiar with the sound and what is possible. My main e-stat amp is the Mjolnir carbon CC which is very powerful, heavy and costly. I can say that harder to drive e-stats run easier on the carbon, but I can't say that...- BTD1

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
I am very pleased to see this review of the Phantom. When the Phantom was first announced and demoed at shows I was very skeptical and did not like the look of it. However, I bought one anyway out of curiosity. I must say that the reviewer got it right. This compact, low heat, unit does so...- BTD1

HIFIMAN Shangri-La: The New Electrostatic Headphones From HIFIMAN
Astonishing price! However, they are just magnificent for classical. I just wish the average build quality was as good as the sound. Spend some time with them if you can find them at a show. They are impressive.- BTD1

In your review I hope you can comment on the function of the remote app. I can't get it to work consistently. Sometimes the app mirrors the display of the Phantom, sometimes it doesn't. The app references connecting via wifi but only connects via bluetooth. Anyway, if you could shed some...- BTD1
