Ziigaat x Jay Audio Seraphim Review

  General / Packaging / Build / Comfort The Seraphim is the latest collaboration between ZiiGaat and Jay Audio. It is a 2DD + 3BA hybrid and retails at $259 over at Linsoul. The drivers are two 10mm PET polymer dynamic drivers for the lows, two Knowles RAF 32873 balanced armatures for the mids and one Knowles RAD 33518 for the treble. Impedance is 9Ω with 105dB sensitivity. ZiiGaat calls the dual DD setup isobaric, but take it with a pinch of salt. I am not going to pretend I can tell from the outside, and what matters is what comes out of it. The shell is full metal, small and light. The design is minimalistic and clean, and it looks more expensive than $259. The edges are not rounded off like a high end set, but that is purely me nitpicking. ZiiGaat also added a front vent this time to ease the occlusion effect. I had no driver flex or pressure buildup during my sessions. Fit is mostly good. The shell is small and sits easily, but the nozzles are short (6mm). So tip rolling is ne...

ddHifi C2023 Audiophile Carrying Case Review

 

General

ddHifi has a lot of product lines under the brand, ranging from cables to IEM, yes you heard me right, IEMs, the Janus, adapters and various other audiophiles accessories. Personally I owned and used several of ddHifi’s adapters as well as their OTG cables, both of which are of high quality. Today we will be taking a look at their carrying case, the C2023.


Build

Build quality is very good, overall fabric is very thick and the seams are very clean as well.

YKK zipper which is known for its impeccable quality and durability. Zipper is smooth and it does not have the feeling of sticky/stuck. The bottom of the bag is made out of cowhide leather, on top of that, it is being layered with a layer of sponge for extra protection of your device, a very thoughtful design. 



Compartments

The front compartment is big enough to fit small accessories such as keys,cards, or even an airpod pro. Moving to the main compartment, I am able to fit in an iFi Gryphon Portable Dac/Amp, and also an iPod Touch within it. On top of that, I have a small wallet and I'm able to put that in as well if I place my wallet horizontally, you can imagine how spacious it is in the main compartment.



Within the main compartment, there is a small compartment with a zipper, i store my dongle within that compartment, which fits my Hidizs S9 Pro nicely.


Moving to the back on the pouch/bag, you may unzip it to gain extra space, i tried fitting in a small 250ml water bottle and it fits just fine



Strap

  • Moving on to the strap, the strap itself is also packed with features and easy to adjust in terms of length

  • On the strap itself, there is a mesh bag to put your bluetooth dongle, it is able to fit in my iFi Go Blu and also there’s a hook for you to put your cable through it to prevent the cable from dangling all over, a very thoughtful design, the only thing that’s missing is a shoulder pad for more comfort, then it’ll be perfect!



Final Thoughts

As someone who carries quite a lot of stuff in their pocket, also an audiophile, this C2023 is a god send. I shifted my wallet into the case from my pocket, my bluetooth dac/amp, my keys and IEMs all inside the case and i barely have anything else in my pockets, this is very convenient and when i get home, i will not unpack my on the go listening setup, instead i will just leave them within the case, the next time when i’m heading out, i just pick up the case and off i go, very convenient. Highly recommended!
