The FitEar CIEM Impressions Thread
I've been out of the game for quite a few years but has that policy changed? I thought even universal FitEars purchased (new) from Fujiya-Avic required proof of Japan residency?- AnakChan

Perth, Western Australia 2024 Meet?
Folks, I posted up a 25th May meet unfortunately I've not heard of any responses, and as such am cancelling the meet. However if folks want to reach out to me directly for any informal catchup, I'll be more than happy to do so (within Perth limits :P). But I don't think I'd be dismantling my...- AnakChan

Aw....any regrets letting it go!? I have to say the 1+2 was ahead of its time and still holds strong 11-12 yrs later.- AnakChan

Now you've done it :P. I've just dusted off the Tralucent 1Plus2 but the original silver+gold has been reterminated for my FitEars so the only decent cable I have for 2-pin is the Brise UPG001Ref1 8-wire. I should have brought the 1+2 along to compare with the 2024 TotLs. Really the 1+2 blew my...- AnakChan

Agreed depending on how far you go back. My TOTL would be my FitEar Titans from 2017 (2018?) and I hadn't done any critique listening till CanJam SG - after a 5 year hiatus. To my surprise a 2017 $3k TOTL sound can be achieved by a 2024 ~$1k IEM with 2024 $2k surpassing a yesteryear TOTL. Having...- AnakChan

Perth, Western Australia 2024 Meet?
@AncientWsidom (gosh I haven't talked to you in ages!!), @Dansus18 & other folks, shall we set a date tentatively Sat May 25th to catch up at Dan's store? There are some others who are not in this group that've reached out. I'm happy to bring my Stax SR-009, SR-007Mk1s, Electra/Holo...- AnakChan

Folks, @iscorpio71 misunderstood that the connector was MMCX which he later corrected to say it's 2-pin. I've cleaned up subsequent replies to avoid any further misunderstanding.- AnakChan

CanJam Singapore 2024 Impressions Thread (April 6-7, 2024)
Let's keep this thread on-topic about CJSG24 instead. I talked to @Rob Watts and he'll have his presentation available on his blog in the upcoming weeks. We can spin off a separate thread about this. All I can say is that his presentation was honest and enlightening. I only wish someone video-ed it.- AnakChan

CanJam Singapore 2024 Impressions Thread (April 6-7, 2024)
This isn't a product review as much as a more general summation of my thoughts after attending my first CanJam. So for someone who's been out of the game for about 5 yrs, just coming back, I have to say I'm highly shocked and impressed at many different facets of industry and hobby. After moving...- AnakChan

CanJam Singapore 2024 Impressions Thread (April 6-7, 2024)
I see little talked about this but a new company called Eminent Ears (by Travis Chan) from Hong Kong has come up with a little captivating gem called Ruby (no pun intended). The 1x DD, 4x BA, 4x EST 5-way crossover is surprisingly coherent across board (to my aging ears). I enjoyed the...- AnakChan

HiFiMan Susvara
I've been in/out of audio for the past few years (aside from moderating :P), but on Saturday, I popped by my local shop (Addicted to Audio, probably the only store in Perth), and asked them about amps for the Susvara and the chap helped with 2 setups - the Fiio M17 & the Felix Envy. I have to...- AnakChan
