I think they got the price wrong on these! Dita Project M review

[@PassionforSound]

Dita Audio have reached out to me with a clarification on the warranty for the Project M. It seems I misunderstood the info on the website so it's not a 10-year warranty as such, but this: "We offer 10 years of support in terms of parts and replacement and 1 year of traditional warranty" Sorry for any confusion!!

Man your video style is still growing, changing and improving. The careful timing on the editing and music levels and so on is quite apparent. Also I really want these now!

I ABSOLUTELY gurarantee that you will adore them, just as I did when I auditioned them (with the correct eartips, that is).

@@PassionforSound it’s good because although I liked how it was before, this still feels quite organic and feels like you, seems like you are nice and comfortable in front of the camera, and it’s cool seeing you more animated, seems like a good move, but again, it was also great before, so I’m happy either way as a viewer.

[@MinidiscAu]

Nice review! We've been really impressed by the Project M as well, both the looks and the sound. We agree about the treble, for some genres and some customers it's just perfect (we love it for jazz) but it can get a bit hot on many tracks. Still, as an overall package with good looks and really comfortable fit for most people, we think it's a winner.

[@yaps66]

I already know how much they cost since I heard them in Singapore in their shop. What they said is they wanted to build something that sounds good to them at a reasonable price. This speaks volumes about profit margins in this industry. The treble for me is very nice for my aging hearing! The other two iems that also punch above their price is the Elysian Acoustics Pilgrim and Pilgrim Noir.

[@PassionforSound]

I agree. The Pilgrim in particular is outstanding!

I demoed the Project M at Bloom Audio and AB against my Yanyin Cannon 2 just like you did since they were in the same price point. At first, I was like the Cannons are better but the more I listened to the Project M, they are far superior. I don't know if you own any iFi products but when you activate X Bass, it literally made the Project M's one of the most magical audio projects I've tried. I highly recommend these to anyone who is shopping in the 1k price range because they are truly that good.

[@PassionforSound]

Great suggestion about the bass boost. That would be perfect!

[@ibiondo]

That’s exactly my configuration, and suggestion: Project M with the iFi Hip DAC 3, with bass boost on. It is just perfect for my taste. It is my current favorite IEM. The only one that is still slightly better, in my collection, is the UM Mest II.

I’ve only subscribed to your channel today. Been following your channel for a while now. Actually it was the IE600 review you did that made me by a pair from Addicted to Audio after reviewing them and auditioning them in the store. Your enthusiasm towards this pair of Dita Project M, had me hooked. After doing more research and reading 9 reviews on Head-Fi. All between 4 and 5 Star ⭐️ reviews mind you. I’ve created an account with Mini Disc and Ordered a pair Blind, based on your review. I’m hoping they are as good as the IE600 or better. I’ve only just recently ordered the Hisenior Mega5-EST as a blind order based on DMS review. So here we are. Waiting for both to be shipped . Thanks to your review.

@@PassionforSound Thanks . I received my Project M today from Minidisc. I’m really impressed. Your video is very accurate on all aspects.

So by choosing a different source is noticeable in the detail. I haven’t received my Mega5-EST just yet. But will compare those also.

[@michaelsegel8758]

Just picked up a pair. Primarily based on your review, along with a couple of other reviews. My take... Setup: Macbook Pro w Apple Dongle and eqMac playing Spotify. Switched to foam tips that were not provided. Music: Classical, Jazz, Rock, Electronic, pretty much everything but Country and Western.... Straight w no EQ, sounds great, but bass was there but thin. Adding EQ was mixed. ( Some of the presets were 'meh' and made the sound worse.) On some music enhancing the bass started to cause distortion. Just .5db at 32Hz and then ~3.5db at 64Hz seemed best for me. (Note: After 20+ hours of listening... seems that the distortion has gone away. Maybe this counts as burn in? ) Played some classic rock (Black Sabbath (Iron Man, War Pigs for example.) Sounded great w no EQ. Better w my bass settings. After some burn in, EQ'd bass booster was ok too. Separation was great. Music was clear. I mean like really good. Pretty much what you and the other reviewers have said were true. The negatives... 1) Carrying case too big to fit in pocket. Ok if traveling w EDC work bag. 2) When I unboxed cable was hard to tell L from R. And then trying to see which unit was L or R. (Manual wasn't much of a help.) Overall, love them so far.

Its okish my main issue is that the project M is that the only detail comes from the midrage. Not to mention the notable sibilance spikes. Sure you can use hard foam to clean up the sibilance but you would make the already avarage bass detail even worse. Imo they are way overcharing for this and would be 200sgd at most. Then again the one thing it does accel at is timbre so if that is your only concern then yes its worth

[@PassionforSound]

It sounds to me like your tastes and mine are similar. I think the technical performance of these absolutely warrants their price - I just think they're not the right IEM for your tastes. (And that's totally fine - not trying to make you wrong)

I wonder if these would be a good upgrade from my Elixirs. I would like more transparent mids and bit more detail overall. I can be a little treble sensitive. I enjoy the Elixirs but sometimes fit and comfort spoil long listening sessions. This price bracket is perfect even up to $400. Thanks...

[@PassionforSound]

That's a tricky one! These are a little brighter in the treble to my ears, but the transparency and clarity is outstanding. Midrange is a little pulled back in the lower registers so it depends on whether you mean "detail and clarity" when you say you want midrange transparency or if you want a more present and available midrange which would require better balance between the mids and treble.

It's very interesting but I am about to buy the Pilgrim from Elysian Labs which is around the same price? So I would like to know if you can compare the Project M to the Pilgrim? And if I buy the Pilgrim I will also have to buy another Effect Audio cable like the Cadmus because of the Pentacon termination that are specific to Elysian Labs in a way to get the best of the Pilgrim. But If I buy the Project M, Iwon't have to buy any another cable and it will be far less expansive to me...

[@dbean5174]

I think it matters in what you value in sound. The Pilgrim is a bit more similar to the harman sound where there is a slight mid bass dip with more sub bass and a less peaky and smoother treble. The Project M is a bit less bassey overall with a smoother lower response and more peaky and elevated treble with a solid dip in the upper mids. If I were you, I would buy the Pilgrim as I’ve heard more positive about it than the Project M though the Project M is still highly rated. The Pilgrim is being called as the most technical under $500. Regarding an aftermarket cable, I really wouldn’t fall into that kind of stuff. Thinking that the cable can affect the sound is not recommended personally. Especially since you’re looking at a $300 cable. At this total (with the pilgrim) you could probably get a $700 IEM that comes with a good cable and call it a day.

[@TheVeganVicar]

I suggest you buy the DITA first, and then the Pilgrim. It should prove easy to sell the one you like least (I'll definitely buy either one from you, at the right price, of course).

Paused the video to guess the price, guessing since you think it’s one of the best things that you have heard in a long time, and the resin housing, case etc, has to be $1500-$2200.

[@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo]

You got me, was not expecting that price bracket at all. And partly that is because really, I’m not sure I’ve seen you so enthusiastic about a product before. Nice seeing you so excited bud, makes me excited in turn, vicariously 🙂

[@TheVeganVicar]

@@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo, these are an ABSOLUTELY must buy! I would buy an extra pair to boot!!!

[@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo]

@@TheVeganVicar haha must be pretty special. Might make sure that they are the right set first for me though.

[@TheVeganVicar]

@@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo, obviously, if you have the opportunity to audition them beforehand, do so. I'm certain you will be pleased with the sound quality, assuming you use the right eartips (take your entire collection with you, especially the FiiO HS18).

[@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo]

@@TheVeganVicar HS18?

[@ifteykharulislam]

Can u suggest some basshead iem plz

[@TheVeganVicar]

THESE can be basshead with the right eartips, despite what every other review has said or written.

[@PassionforSound]

No, these will never be a true bass head IEM, VV. For bass heads you need to go towards things like the ikko OH10/OH10S, Yanyin Canon II. I can't actually think of a truly bassy IEM to recommend at the moment because most have extra treble and become more v-shaped.

[@realrohitupadhyay]

CA Polaris, Mjolnir, Ikko OH10, QKZ HBB Khan, Cannon

[@mikael4751]

$400? USD? edit: (close!)

[@TheVeganVicar]

The answer is even better (coincidentally, one of DITA's earphones are called "The Answer").

[@PassionforSound]

Good guess, Mikael!

[@TonkyTronicus]

Yet another bass-anemic set to pass on :D

[@PassionforSound]

They're not anaemic as such, but it sounds like you're more like me and will long for a bit more than these deliver down low.

[@TonkyTronicus]

@@PassionforSound They're sincerely beautiful shells and construction throughout, so I won't lie, a part of me still wants em a bit :P

[@MrRosscoz]

$1300?

[@PassionforSound]

That's a very reasonable guess based on their build quality and accessories!

[@latle111]

$150

[@PassionforSound]

Now that would be a supreme bargain!

[@TheNEOONE1]

U mad? State of the frequency response

[@BLUE-wk8wh]

299,-

[@PassionforSound]

Nice guess!

[@BLUE-wk8wh]

Yeah i thought i would be way off 😋 but i just put the Price i would pay for some good iems 🤘🤑

[@markmangion5700]

325 hehehehehe

[@TheVeganVicar]

He said "UNLESS you already know the price".

[@markmangion5700]

@TheVeganVicar lighten up its just me kidding duhhhh

[@tr_vmi4844]

And sold out! Sigh.....

[@PassionforSound]

I'm pretty sure they'll make more. I don't think it was a limited run.

[@parkerbuyeradvocates5654]

Great! I never liked your channel but tuned in because your voice was so boring it put me to sleep. Now that youve changed the tone and speed of your shows i cant even do that anymore. Thanks for ruining the only good thing about your channel. Im outta here.....love you. Bye

[@PassionforSound]

Love you too, honey xx

[@thedude1249]

⭐The KZ Krila is best DD/BA out there for the money! The $1000 dollar IEM killa.🤩💲💲

​@TheVeganVicar Impossible, I've never seen a coherent comment from this guy.

@@Lost1ntheSauc3, yet others seem to like his comments, judging by the "thumbs-up".

🔥🌶️

[@howardroark3670]

And not enough bass.

[@aRc11-11]

I hate this new "format".. if you can call it that. Why do we see the same vid for three days in a row. I'm unsubscribing till you come back to your senses

[@PassionforSound]

I don't understand what you mean. I release one video every 3-4 days and some shorts from that video to help raise awareness of the main review.

[@aRc11-11]

@@PassionforSound just release one review. I shouldn't be notified of the same product 3-4 times in a row.

[@PassionforSound]

I'll start staggering the shorts so they're all different products. Just trying some new things.

[@Ober1kenobi]

I like the format, But this content isn’t for me, I wouldn’t watch it for the sole reason I cannot afford Maybe I didn’t scroll far enough through your videos but the average price for products seems to be $1,000 AUD or more… Sir..

[@PassionforSound]

Thanks for watching and commenting. I will review any product at any price. I've got some affordable speaker amps, headphones and streaming gear coming very soon.
