    was good to finally put a face to that great voice.
    interesting product, but too expensive for me.

    So, do you believe that this IEM delivers an exceptional experience equivalent to other High End products, such as the Susvara or in IEM something from USD 4k budget ?

      no, I don't. that's what I've said in the conclusion. this model is good, and offers a unique experience, but it's not significantly better then "affordable" $4000 segment

    Despite this iem offering a unique experience, could I get some additional information for the Ob - Mmcx? Can I use aftermarket mmcx cables upgrades for these iem?

    • @PortaFi
      @PortaFi  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      as far as I remember, they aren't compatible with regular MMCX. but I can be wrong

      @@PortaFiHello. I’ve been thinking about considering this iem and campfire audio trifecta. Which is your personal preference out of the two? I would love to hear some feedback. Personally yes, I do agree this iem is very expensive but at the same time I am curious as to how it compares to Trifecta and if its really a " significant upgrade" to 2000,3000 dollar category of iems.

      @@robbo5364 hello. They are pretty different in signature, and subjectively I prefer oBravo more. Trifecta has a great bass, if you like low, it'll be perfert for you. But I like more polite lows representation, as I rarely listen to the music that requires "mighty" lows.
      As for overall oBravo value, $3000-$4000 models are better in terms of price/quality ratio. And oBravo is for those who want that exclusive experience they offer. They are a step forward indeed, but not that big as price bump :)

      @@PortaFiWhat about other aspects? Like build quality and overall signature? Yes I do love bass. And I listen to a lot of death metal and heavy rock. Do you think Obravo is a more balanced and natural sound while Trifecta has better bass? What about other aspects like treble and mids? So out of /10 how much would you give it a boost in terms of “ improvement” to a price like trifecta? Also another concern is warranty. What if Obravo RA Ccu ( unlikely) breaks? And there’s no sound? Does it come with lifetime warranty? I wouldn’t want to waste that much on an iem that doesn’t guarantee lifetime warranty. Even if Trifecta breaks it’s slightly more forgiving in terms of “ price” and it wouldn’t hurt my bank as much as the insane price of RA. Also I don’t just listen to heavy metal, I also, just like you, enjoy jazz and orchestra pieces, I also like solo pianos and electronics. Which one would you recommend for me now if I like these genres of music?

      I would also like to confirm on the source as I heard this iem being extremely picky. Due to their high impedance, any good DAP or amp recommendations? Just want a simple setup and not those complicated desktop amp setups 😂

    11 hundreds or 11 thousands?!?! anyway too much for begin affordable for an IEM...
    EDIT: just saw in Google.. 11.000............. INSANE!! no other comment

    • @PortaFi
      @PortaFi  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      yep, it's 11K, sorry if I made a mistake pronouncing that. $1100 is kind of "normal" price nowadays (I don't share this opinion :)

      we live in a very divided world, vast majority are poor, but there is a bunch of people who can afford luxury. and it's not a small count of them
