Industry News, Rumors, & New Releases 🤐

I have heard 3 people i trust (dont have the same tastes as 2 of them tbf) say its technicaly a step up from 23r. Whether it competes for the 8k price is a different discussion, bit tbh, thats kind of a dead zone pricing wise afaik. Over all idk, i guess im just not all that bothered by the hype given the output means you probabaly wont loose much even if it sucks and you sell

New Enleum product that won a red dot design award will be announced June 20th.
Most likely a stronger amp (65 or 100 wpc).

oOh god the mixing…why is that not more common? Honestly that thing looks pretty neat, too bad about the price.

I looked at the specs (and googled a metric to US calculator) and the HM1+power supply will fit perfectly riiiiiiiight there:

EDIT: Holy fingerprints! Much worse in the photo. :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:

That’s what I’m worried about, stuff like that typically sacrifices fidelity for features, and just like with the phonitor it’s neat at first but most realize it really isn’t worth the trade off for that price point unless your main priority are features over sound. But who knows, I just think @ValentineLuke is definitely on the right track in terms of the hype over the thing, it’s exactly the same way the phonitor got pushed lol

But it’s not red. And it doesn’t have VU meters. Hard pass. :wink:

Edit: Before I get a lot of “WTF, what an ass” replies, that’s a joke about @ValentineLuke’s Phonitor.

That’s the best thing I like about the Enleum… they sacrificed all the features to prioritize build and sound quality haha

I really look forward to trying one, though. Zähl is pretty respected for his consoles, so I’m sure it’s good. It’s more of a question of “how good”?

Question to the general membership.

I’ve never been to a show like this, one realization however is that it can’t be good to given a listen to a headphone/amp in that noisy an environment, closed backs would have half a chance but an open back would be pointless.

Are there no quiet areas or side rooms to show off gear this way?

There are quiet booths (like an old telephone booth with sound dampening) sometimes and some manufacturers have rooms outside of the main showroom that can be much quieter but you’re right to assume it’s far from ideal in any case

I’ve had a hard time making a good assessment but I’ve been loaned a component for a couple of days In my own home.I can’t imagine just a few minutes in an unfamiliar space.

Probably getting ahead of things here :laughing:
