This case is quite firm and does a good job of protecting all the surfaces of the C9. The appearance is in fact more attractive than it may be in photographs because there are small gold-coloured reflective flecks in the case which catch the light and are quite beautiful. The C9 does not heat up substantially within the case and the metal grating seems to do its job in heat dissipation. The C9 is snug within the case and there’s no concern about it slipping or falling out while within. I am not sure how protective it would be if one actually DROPPED the C9 (I don’t intend to find out), but it will do a good job protecting from accidental scratches or dings from contact with other equipment. All working ports are fully and easily accessible, and the Korg Nu-tubes are easily visible.
This Case is really nice!!!
I replaced my Project transport with the ET3 and could not be happier. The ET3 is built like a S__T brick house and is more detailed than the Project transport. It has a wide soundstage with instruments well placed within the soundstage. The only downside is difficult to read what track is playing because of the size of the display. Would i recommend the ET3 YES.
Have heard the regular centurion a while back, and after three month searching a cable that could give the Traillii more depth in soundstage and treble extension I decided that the Centurion is probably the best cable on the market for that purpose. Though I wouldn't say the Centurion is a perfect "upgrade" cable since it definitely affects the overall tuning of the IEM, the Centurion still has one of the best Soundstage performance out of all cables I tested and the most sophisticated mid-high to treble tuning which I found suitable for my current setup.
Also thanks Andrew for having it delivered flawlessly. The moment I saw the two gigantic boxes I realize how difficult this actually is.
its my best cd transport
Very nice sound with enhanced detail and note definition/timbre. Good solid bass which goes deep but very articulate as well. Mids given weight especially lower Mids . Very detailed and spacious . Treble nicely extended and detailed without getting sibilant or splashy . Very big stage as well stretching in all directions . And very good air
