    I heard Rhapsodio's rd3 and gave them some negative feedback on a dual-DD which they were thinking about putting out, but didn't. The Galaxy seems like a more balanced take on their aluminium coated DD RTI1.

    Has anyone heard it? I'd like to read your take on it. Thanks.


    Oh, and not sure why there are three sets of quotation marks around "high-end", in the title, but please pay it no mind!

    I am in HK right now so if I can find their address I could probably hear it and a/b with EX1000 + P1.

    I've read good things. Probably not my cup of tea, solar would be more my choice.

    I've owned both Solar and Galaxy V1, and even though the Galaxy is more neutral, I prefer the Solar. The Galaxy is a good dynamic (I am not an expert on this as I owned very few) but the fit is weird, and it lacks a bit of emotion. I didn't detect any glaring defects though. I have more of an overall issue with Rhapsodio (even though Sammy is a very cool guy) : the huge variability of what you can pay for a given iem shows, added to the build quality shows that he is bit pushing it...I mean the Galaxy was 1.6k and felt a bit DIY.
