Emailed Elysian to get a heads-up on my order. First batch will start shipping around mid-May... wait, that's next week. Here we go!

Ordered via Elysian, now waiting for the lovely, lovely DHL tracking number! (Have had a very good experience with DHL; they've always delivered way earlier than expected, and it's always in great condition)

Will get back to you on that (unless someone else tests first). My brother said he's getting the R4, I'll borrow it to test with the Titan.

Normal. My Kann Alpha lasts its usual day or 2 of almost non-stop playing, midgain 80-90/150. Almost one-month into Titan ownership: I still can't stop grinning when the Titan punches my brains out with its bass response. I alternate between this, Dark Magician and CP32E for my chill-time "I...

Yup. Wore it earlier at a local meet.

Confirm that BTR15 works, but the subbass just isn't there and the sound is dynamically compressed. Just experimented with it since I only really use it for work calls with a more sensitive IEM. Really enjoying these bad boys with the Kann Alpha and my home K9 Pro ESS. EDM songs really give me...

Assuming the reference price in the website is the final price, your guess is close. It's 2.5M yen = roughly 16,153 USD as of time of this post. https://briseaudio.com/en/pages/fugaku From the site, it's a DD/BA/MEMS hybrid:

It's quite hard without a physical store, true. Hard to just rely on reviews and impressions without having demoed something in person. It comes to show how brick and mortar stores, meets and physical conventions are more important than ever. There's so much data to sift through on the Internet...

True on minimum specs. Makes it easier for consumers to make decisions. I think the last piece of gear I saw with that kind of specification was the Heddphone (Mk1 and/or 2). Theoretically, you should have more than enough power as the DC04 Pro has a higher rated output power than the Questyle...

They forgot the most important part of one very big video on the Apple Dongle: the video only said that it would get to a listenable volume. That is true-- it is listenable. But they never said it was a satisfactory listening experience.

The default narrowbores, Symbio peels, and Azla Sednaearfits. I have Azla Xelastec IIs and Origins coming in later, will test. Yup. I recently got an even more doubtful friend to question his beliefs when he demoed my Crimson from the Qudelix 5k he uses for everything, to my friend's iBasso...

I tend to be a non-believer in sources and power, but Symphonium (and Nightjar) IEMs have really challenged my beliefs on these. (I feed the Titan more power off my Kann Alpha [80-90/150 in midgain] than some of my overears [Arya Organic is usually at 70-80, for one] to get to a satisfactory...

Sounds like a batch issue (unless someone also got unlucky with the initial production run)? My unit's from the first run, have no issues with it. (I also don't find it dark, just a bit relaxed in the treble, but the details are there.) (I trust Symphonium and Headphones.com can help resolve this.)

Singaporean IEMs on a Singapore-themed deskmat. All I need is a Merlion IEM holder to tie them together hehehe

Priming wallet for next year. Got the Titan and Project M during the show, and a last-minute Canpur CP32e an hour before I headed to the airport for my flight home!

I had to head straight to a business trip right after my trip to Singapore, so I haven't had the time to really organize my impressions of the gears I demoed. For now, I'll just list down what I thought were the standouts (with my very very brief initial thoughts; i.e., lots of shilling first)...

Canjam SG 2022: Bought the Meteor at the last hour. Canjam SG 2023: Bought the Titan at the first hour. They had several in reserve for the show, but I doubt there are still any for Day 2.

Hopefully there's stock tomorrow for those who didn't pre-order. I'm likely to get it since I could use a basshead IEM in my weekly rotation (and quite like what they've done in the past), but I'd like to get some sit-down time first.

Thanks for this. I'm pretty new to specialty coffees honestly, but I'm developing a taste for them. From the list, I'm particularly interested in Tiong Hoe since I'm always game to check out experimental processes in [any] food/drink. Also hear great things about the owner.

Yishun 928 gets mentioned quite a bit. Couple blocks away from Yishun MRT.

Well said, good sir. I will bring along some random airplane earbuds and see how well they synergize too.

Yeah, I've gone to Singapore a fair amount of times even before I took audio seriously. Thinking of trying out some food stalls up north (my Singaporean friends from way back have been telling me about the Yishun laksa hehehe). Have some stalls I favor elsewhere, like this thunder tea rice...

Was able to book a hotel right across Simlim Tower hehehe. So motivated to push myself at work and wrap up my last few deliverables with this coming. (I can already taste my favorite thunder tea rice stall near Aljunied Station...)

I come to Canjam to check out the new releases and prototypes, I stay for the people I meet. I'm bringing a couple friends who I got into audio, but who've never been to Canjam, this year. I hope that after this Canjam, they'll be show regulars!

Looks great (and with its material, it should be practical for the tropical climate)! Same shirt measurements as last year's shirts? (I dropped a size or two from last year hehehe)
