Know before you buy
The titanium construction is highly rigid, which helps minimize unwanted internal resonance. This results in a cleaner, more precise sound reproduction compared to standard plastic or resin housings.
With an impedance of 16Ω and a sensitivity of 110dB, these IEMs are relatively easy to drive. While they will work with standard mobile devices, using a high-quality DAC or amplifier will better reveal the detail and dynamic range of the driver configuration.
The crossover acts as a traffic controller, ensuring each driver handles only the specific frequency range it was designed for. This prevents overlap and distortion, resulting in a more coherent and balanced sound across the entire spectrum.
The cable uses a blend of 6N monocrystalline copper and silver, which provides low impedance and excellent signal integrity. This ensures the audio signal reaches the drivers with minimal loss or interference.
Yes, the Cadenza 12 includes modular connectors for 2.5mm, 3.5mm, and 4.4mm jacks. This allows you to easily switch between balanced and unbalanced outputs on your various audio sources.
Open Box items are products that have been returned or used for display but remain in like-new condition. They are fully inspected to ensure they meet performance standards and come with the complete manufacturer's warranty.
