It's no secret that Fischer Audio's Genesis and Falcon has been announced, we in Singapore usually get the commercial samples first due to warm relations and proximity to Russia. For those who are in the dark this has been announced quite some time back - http://www.fischeraudio.ru/articles/pressr-fund-2010.php So let's cut to the chase - I got a text today from Treoo to audition the Genesis and Falcon, I quickly to meet up with them to take it home and rip it apart. I was very curious about the Genesis due to its size and the way it was build, what attracted me to the design was the large housing. In the back of my mind, I knew this was gonna be a basshead's wet dream. Genesis Lets start with the build - I've known Fischer Audio since the day of their debut on the world's stage, I still have and use the Eterna V1 - Silver bullet. I believe everyone knows by now that they are using ODM/OEM for their products, but the important thing to note is that with all my dealings with fellow FA fans is that the build quality is not a nightmare unlike many other brands. Genesis is no different and I have found that they're choosing the right parts to make a winner. The cables are cloth sheath, means micro-phonics are reduce to a minimum - read none. The cables are flexible and light yet strong enough to handle a few hard tugs - in case of accidental mishaps where the cable gets caught on a hinge - happens to me alot when I walk around with my IEM The color scheme and pattern reminds me of a rice cooker power cord which is not a deal breaker but interesting to note. The plastic chrome housing is nicely finish and feels like quality build, not some cheapo snap together kind of production. There is a port hole at the back of the housing as I will explain later enhances the sound - Bass. Last but not least, and it's somewhat like a WIN for most FA fans, there is a nice plastic shell casing to keep your IEMS in. No more raggidy-ass felt cloth string pouch which puts a tiny smile on my face. Overall when I pick up Genesis to listen to music, I have no worries that it will fall apart or even if it falls on the floor my heart won't break unlike a Iphone4 user. Initial Impression - Fresh out of the box, I stuffed in my ear using my own Biflanges - Never liked or used the stock tips anyway, played a hip hop track on my sansa clip+. I was greeted with phat ghetto boombox bass - if you're familiar with the expression of - Bass in your face, this is what you're going to get. If you think Eterna was too much, this makes the Eterna sound like a polite school girl. I was intoxicated with bass, but the bass was enjoyable, not bloated not overbearing just tight fast punches which could make a person nausea. I like big bass and I cannot lie...and Genesis gave it to me hard and fast constant pounding. If you're hardcore basshead, this was like sex in your ear canals. But like all FA it was an ugly duckling out of the box, the mids are recess and the highs are like a glass ceiling. I've dumped it my burn in box to allow it to cook for at least 48 hours before I resume review. Falcon SRP $82 SGD Build Quality - The build quality of the Falcon is about the same with Genesis, with it's cloth sleeved cable and durable plastic. This interesting to note is that it is almost like the Klipsch Image X5, same same but different. However It is made of matt black plastic with a silver highlight towards the tip. The back of the Falcon has a nice plastic stress relief which is quite elastic and can withstand abit of abuse from everyday usage - I've tried tugging it slightly and place a little stress on each side. Unfortunately, this comes with a raggedy-ass felt cloth string pouch in tradition of FA's usual no frills packaging. But then again, for the price I believe everyone who wish to buy it will just want to get the IEM only. Initial Impressions - The tradition of FA lies in its sound signature of how it presents music. FA is never about accuracy or balance, it's sound is best described as fun and it is evident through out their entire line up. Falcon has a vast sound stage that encapsulates the user into the music, it is not very intimidating and provoking compared to Genesis which hits you in your face when you first hear it. Falcon feels like an old friend's warm embrace or a kind stranger's endearing smile; first you are hesitant but slowly you're drawn closer. The sound stage is laid back yet there is impact with the music - you feel relax while listening a rock song but still able to groove with it without falling asleep. It has a mid-mid bass bias with very nice warmth but not overly warm where it feels like it's bloated - some what a pet peeve of mine when it comes to audio. There is traces of sparkles in the mid - highs which makes the cymbals shimmering in the background. Bass impact is there, it doesn't extend as low and more polite and mild mannered compared to the Eterna and Genesis. It is still enough to basshead neophytes a good experience with their music - which may still be too much for people who are extremely sensitive to bass It seems it still suffer from the pre-burn in syndrome - recessed mids and rolled off highs. Time to cook it for 50 hours.. TBC

****obscenity deleted by mod - please note this forum do not allow obscenities**** My boredom and curiosity made me tear apart my M50 to do some major modding LOL But seriously the cables need to be changed, I took out the tiny black dual wire cable for the right channel and going to do a 2 side mod. Gonna readjust the headband which caused me so much problems and discomfort and add better padding compared to the thin piece of foam that its on.

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.7745 I have this, works like a charm. annoying thing is, drinks butane like a thirsty dog - plus the tiny nozzle makes its a lengthy refuel.

I have an M50, maybe I should go and mod it too. hur hur hur.

actually the 2 in 1 wire within the sleeve seems rather iffy. Should do a continuity test for signal contamination.

If you want to get an amp, get a patch to absorb the RF. If not get alot of static on the music.

many ways to do it - can even use a ferrite core.

Very proud of this cable as it turned out very nice. From planning/design to end product with alot of challenges inbtwn. Inspired by Kimber 4TC, but I wanted to add a touch of my own innovation and managed to find a way to do a Y braid splitter. Finger tips still sore from hot plugs and teflon burns for stuffing the wires into the tubing.

Probably OEM.

One man's meat is another man's poison. I've rolled many caps to finally arrive to this configuration. Previously was with Oscons but the highs were unstable but very transparent Sprague has a better control on the highs but still retain the transparent nature. So I won't say its rubbish - it does add a flavor which I and many who happened to audition, quite enjoy On the contrary OPA2227, I have a JH11pro user with TTVJ slim and Mustang P51 who commented that the soundstage is 3D. I don't know how you came to the conclusion with the boominess. The only time it happen was with wima caps. Ya, I had to use 3 strands because it would look like 3 strand of thread hanging with 2 plugs.

Anti IC uses OFC copper but is a solid core wire. Comparison was a Neotech OCC solid core Copper - 7n purity. This is not the usual thin cables - Its not teflon sleeved but enamel coated. It is like applying nail polish on a wire, and the bare wires alike nylon strands used for fishing - use for hand line. I'm guessing 30AWG was told 24. This is how a spool looks like. This is the Anti-Cable -

Test Rig - Sourece - Sansa Fuze v2 - XRCD(2)/SHMcd Flac Rips Amp - Modified CmoyBB v2.02 - Vishay Sprague axial tantalum input caps + OPA2227 IEM - Fischer Audio DBA02 + Head Direct RE0 Sound preference - Neutral/balance with ample bass and tinge of warmth and a chalk full of details. Prelude - After much procrastination and deliberation from terminating a set to test. Today I finally got down to it.. Anti IC is somewhat unique, it has enamel as its insulation rather than the usual teflon or rubber sleeve. First off, it is a pain to work with. I've spent a good 4-5 hours just trying to figure out how to give it a backbone because it is so damn thin, much like a slightly larger human hair. Then its not as easy as snip off the teflon and you're good to go, you need to manually scrape off the enamel on each thread of cable..:b14: Anyway thats enough of my ranting.. Lets skip to the meat and potatoes.. Anti IC and Neotech OCC copper is very much similar, one first listen it is exactly the same but there is a lingering characteristic of Anti IC that makes it unique. For the most part, furiously A/Bing the both resulted in the same sound signature upon first listen but there was something that keep drawing me to try again because I just couldn't put my finger on it. But during a point of time, I had given up and wrote off the anti cable "the same as the OCC solid core copper cables.." So much for placebo..lol However I noticed something with the Anti IC - Although music is not so forward and it's slightly more neutral compared to the neotech one albeit both warm in nature. The mid highs seem to sparkle with the Anti IC and soundstage not so cluster together. I used to hate pure copper as I hate warmth which clouds out the details. I hate the slowness that came with copper, the resonance and the boom with the bass and mids. This was surprisingly not present with the Anti IC There is alot more air at the top and at the side, the warmth is not like that of a sauna which can be too overbearing sometimes with its left over boominess but like that of spring , not too warm yet not too cold, able to breathe easy and just enjoy the the weather. However this characteristics are extremely subtle, you need to search for it hard before you can find the difference. Anti IC is to me is more musical in a sense that you're able to have best of both world without having an obscure combination like Silver Plated Copper, which has the peaks and forwardness of silver yet boom and warmth of copper. Anti IC is a rather natural sounding cable which is more suited for details listener who wants a copper cable for their easy listening yet don't want to lose too much details and get too much boom. For people who crave for warmth, it may be a step up from their usual set up and yet retain the familiar characteristics of what they're used to without venturing into the full silver or silver/copper hybrids which is another characteristic altogether.

You can try looking around SLT or mustafa maybe they'll carry for export and to poorer developing country. I know 2nd floor SLS has some shops selling PCDP.
