Hey - yes the Codec will come with a 3.5mm TRRS connector which carries both the audio signal and mic signal. We are also including a USB-C connector which can plug into your PC. If you are planning to use a separate amp you would need a splitter as you guessed. Practically speaking these IEMS are easy to drive and should work well if your PC has a headphone output.
Like everyone else here, these are very appealing to me! Do you have resellers in Europe? I’d hate to miss out just because I’m not in North America.
We’ll be looking into that once we are getting closer to launch. We are currently focused on getting the product fully dialed in. We’ll get folks options in EU as well.
Great to hear, thanks!
Do we have any idea on when will have more information on these. Waiting without knowing anything makes me sob
Haha I feel you. Last update I had was:
- beige sample being sent for color checking
- black prototypes on the way for testing in person
- new mic received, waiting on the prototype iem to arrive for testing
Let me go crack the whip on someone and get something fresher.
Truly a hero of the people.
Nothing much to report. Still just waiting on the factory to get us a fully assembled prototype it seems. Will let you guys know more as soon as I hear it
Just an idea: DSP version using single USB-C termination (simple and elegant). This will eliminate the need for separate inputs (mic noise when using motherboard inputs) and will provide the sound/mic control via built in DSP equalizer. Example of such implementations EPZ G30 with DSP or Kiwi Ears S-Link with DSP. Thanks!
I’m not 100% knowledgeable on this one, but I think part of the reason DSP wasn’t chosen was to avoid any software reliance so the IEM’s are out of the box compatible with game consoles as well.
However, I do like things being more simple so I’ll flag it for the team in case it’s something that is workable.
Any update for August? Waiting patiently ![]()
Hey! The team just got back from the factory tour earlier this week. Let me see if they have anything to share.
Awesome, will you do it in this comment section or should I look to other official channels? Best regards.
Right now, the team is talking with Joshua first to make sure everyone is up to date on the latest and on the same page. As soon as they’re all synced up I’ll be sure to come back and post any updates since I know you’re asking here. I’ll also share any news in our Friday updates if you have any desire to read an email and JV will probably share updates through his channels as well.
Thanks for all your patience ![]()
Hey! I was wondering a few things:
Are you planning to sell the cable separately? Will it be available in Europe? And please consider releasing the cable with mic in an MMCX version as well! I have beyerdynamic iem and they are MMCX
Thank you for your efforts and reply!
We are planning on selling the cable separately and it’ll be available internationally. Community has asked for that and it is in our plan.
Regarding MMCX, we have noted your request. We will need to look and see how feasible is to offer this. Our current version is a 2-pin cable.
Hi, I’ve been waiting for this mic for months, so is there an updated timeline yet? Also, will it be available in Asia right at launch, or is our region getting pushed back to a later wave? It would be really disappointing if we can’t get it immediately after waiting this long.
I’ll defer to @kunal on any logistics issues, but I don’t think there’d be any pushing back per region. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong though.
As for the wait, it has been awhile and we’d love if everything went faster, but as an ethos we’re of the opinion that getting it done right is more valuable than getting it done fast. Our projects can also feel a bit long legged since we announce them near the point of conception to gauge interest before proceeding. In comparison to more typical product announcements which are already 80-90% complete by the time we learn about them.
Unless you’re Star Citizen or a Rock Star game, but I’m confident we can beat that timeline.
@jrj_nms Just to confirm what Alex said - we’ll be making the product available internationally right at launch. Thanks!
Is there a new release target timeframe? Since JV had initially stated in his announcement video that he was shooting for a release before summer, what is the new expectation? Thanks!
