Industry News, Rumors, & New Releases 🤐

I do wonder how it will fare given the price, that’s not a lot of room to work with given the price they ask, hopefully it’s good, would be nice to see bt stuff get to the realm of actually good

Also stealth magnet deva is interesting, wonder if it will be a more relaxed he400se

Yeah, the original Deva with older BlueMini is $299, so they only increased the price by $30 for this new variant – and you get stealth magnets, the R2R DAC in the new dongle, AND dual-entry – I have to assume the old Deva just goes away, because it’s hard to imagine saving $30 and losing the new features – unless you’re just super in love with the original color :stuck_out_tongue:

HFM seems to really aggressively target the budget side as well as the high-end, of course. I recall Resolve saying he preferred the HE-400se to the Deva, so it’ll be interesting to see how the Deva Pro tuning is, whether a better, more refined HE-400se or a more refined Deva.

Ngl the gold accents give it a nice look…

Interesting, although I’d disagree on the nicer look lol, looks a bit more tacky to me compared to the og

Actually, now that I think about it I think you’re right about it being tacky.
I could see the color way not matching a lot of setups, would’ve been better if they copied the zen dac sig look.

Also, forgot to add they also updated the iCAN…

Not my tastes, but it’s not too over done.

Not really a fan of the gold and silver mix in anything. Reminds me of a watch my dad would buy.

Now available for preorder on MusicTeck’s website. Limited to 99 units

Yah… can’t justify it when I’ve already out my interest in for the lp7ti thats around the corner but I would be lieing if I said I wasn’t majorly tempted here.

Ferrum audio was at canjam yesterday and I got a chance to talk to the North American rep. He told me they should be coming out with a DAC/AMP product very soon. Also, they plan to offer more higher-end offerings of their product line…

Did you get to listen to the OOR with the Hyposis psu?

That setup is interesting to me

For those who did, please make a thread for them if you can (to reduce clutter here and also cause I also really want to hear how they are)

Looks like a few new Beyer’s, although unfortunately going the way of the 1.3 with the less capable but easier to drive drivers. Still interesting though, could be much more compelling since it’s apparently around the 300 buck point. New pads and detachable cable are a plus

Also why do they keep neglecting the 880, no 1880 and now no 800 pro x, c’mon beyer

There’s so much disappointment here. Boooo Beyerdynamic :-1:

You can tell that their new management is more interested in catering to the common consumer rather than the audio enthusiast

Man, at least they look so much nicer. I havent listened to a beyer since trying one out at B&H about 7 years ago, but nothing is compelling me to either.

The 880 600 ohm and/or t1.2 might be worth your time given your new shiny BHC

2 Likes

But you are also likely trading nicer looks for less serviceable and less durable build, but hopefully that’s not the case

Agreed for sure, the 600 ohm 880/990 and t1.2 are excellent pairings for that amp
