  1. No wonder never hear from you for sometime... hiding away planning... finally a "bomb"! Haha, must sound so good dun need to leave your apartment liaoz :grin:

    Wow, how does it compare to your previous amp? Was it a Darkvoice 337?

    I should imagine its vastly different. You got yours direct from RWA? Raindrop doesn't have it in stock yet, only in another 2 weeks or so.

     

    Looks like there are many high end cans around with different setups :drool:, perhaps a meet sometime this year would be in order? Unless, its too difficult to find a good location or time. But if it happens, it would be great! :grin:

    But remember people "no shaking of hands" :no:

     

    Yeah, got it from Vinnie direct. I had a normal Isabellina and sent that in to get it upgraded. Its still burning in now. About 50 hours in. Sounds very different from the moment I received it. Highs/lows more extended. Music more full bodied... :prettyprincess:

     

    vis-a-vis my Woo SE6 Pico Dac out, the Isabellina HPA is more detailed, less forward, more balanced.

     

    Since its battery operated, its portable lah :sweat: I can bring it if there's a meet :smoke:


  2. well, maybe the staff is a new gun?

     

    Guys, if you may indulge me, I would like to give things a little perspective.

     

    Let me start by saying I'm not trying to start a flame war and I have always had excellent service at Stereo (perhaps I always knew what I wanted before I went...=)).

     

    Having inexperienced employees do not help a retailer. Having an employee who does not know his products does not help the retailer. Whether an employee is new or not, he/she should at the very least know the products that are being sold and if there is a product that is not being sold, offer an alternative. If the employee is not sure what the customer is asking, a polite let me check and get back to you in a minute would suffice. A simple check with the seniors/boss would solve the problem for the customer.

     

    Obviously given the vast number of audio products, nobody expects a sales person to know everything. But IMHO, the minimum knowledge of what the retailer is offering is required. If not, the retailer might as well ask student volunteers to help out and reduce its cost.

     

    I am not trying to educate anyone on how to run a business, but I know that every retailer can ill afford to lose any customer in these tough economic times. And the act of a "new" employee may do just that. By the time the "new" becomes "old", can you imagine how many customers the retailer would have lost?

     

    Granted that there are limited choices now in Singapore on portable audio products but poor customer service or product knowledge is not something we should condone as a customer.

     

    My two cents.


  3. Thanks for the quick reply. I am just a bit concerned that other than the seal, would my W3 sound like my E530 and whether the signature will deviate very much.

     

    I guess nobody really knows till its tried.

     

    Thanks again.
