I look forward to your take on the Andromedas and the Solaris…I tried the Solaris but couldn’t get passed how much bigger they were…

Yea. It’s definitely bigger, but surprisingly comfortable. It does stick out though which is a little odd. Man all three of these sound good. I feel like my wallet will hate me a little bit more after my demo session is done with these three.

We don’t normally post our office goodies for the What’s In the Box thread but I had to get one of these in the office after meeting up with @TylersEclectic

Very mysterious so far…

The detectives can probably guess from the instruction manual what this may be.

This thing absolutely weighs a ton. I didn’t get a picture of the full on shipping box but there was about 2 pounds of tape surrounding it for protection.

Gotta get the money shots in there of course. And now I will be spending the rest of my Tuesday afternoon with this combo.

Is this @TylersEclectic’s fault from your listening day?

It is indeed. By chance we received a call last week from one of our reps and he asked us about Cayin. I said we needed to get the HA-1A MK2 to our office right away since our office is severely lacking in tubes, especially gorgeous tube amps.

Oooh! Nice! A cool trick to this amp is the two headphone inputs are tuned differently! I thought they mention it in the manual, but not sure. Also now you get to tube roll to find a preferred flavor! Right now I have all TungSol NOS tubes (pretty sure they are all Russian made) but I like it. It’s a little more tame compared to the Bottlehead Crack, a little more airy. I look forward to seeing which way you go with the tubes :package::headphones::face_with_monocle:

Huh. I wonder what this could be.

Be careful…it looks like it might have some crack n it…or maybe some other tube type paraphernalia!

It looks like a parody of the Coneheads from SNL

Or… its a socket wrench.

Socket wrench used to hide address. :slight_smile:

I’m going with a “Crackatwoa” …

These weren’t even in a box…

I think that is the last item pending for now (unless I ordered tubes also…).

A funny occurrence was that yesterday I received the typical Amazon email that says “Based on your recent purchases, Amazon recommends:” and then proceeded to recommend me boxes and packing tape suitable for “moving house”. I think Amazon may have been talking to my wife about my recent purchases… :smile:

What did I buy this time that I forgot about due to long China delivery times??

Purple!

I can never have enough purple in my life.

These are brighter than the original ZSN from first listen. I probably won’t listen to these that much for a while as I have all of the TOTL campfire IEMs in my possession right now.
