The new Oriveti Purecaster bring wired IEMs with audiophile quality at a price that’s affordable.
ORIVETI
Oriveti is an audio brand with a low profile but a serious reputation in audiophile and hi-fi circles. The company has a reputation for producing audio products with premium sound and craftsmanship, but without a high price. The brand’s all about creating earphones with an elegant look and high-fidelity performance.
Today, Oriveti has announced the bleqk Purecaster, a new in-ear monitor designed around a custom 12.2mm aluminum-magnesium dynamic driver that’s been engineered to produce a bold bass, articulate mids and detailed treble. Its sound has been tuned for accuracy and texture.
Changeable Tuning Nozzles
Built with a modular approach, the new Purecaster also offer the flexibility of interchangeable tuning nozzles, a detachable 2-pin cable and lightweight CNC-milled aluminum shells. However, Oriveti claims that the Purecaster gives listeners the freedom to shape their own listening experience.
The Oriveti Purecaster comes with two pairs of tuning nozzles for personalising sound.
ORIVETI
At its core, the Purecaster has a modular system with features not often seen at this price. Two tuning nozzles are included. One is for a Balanced sound with a natural and even-handed sound signature. The other nozzle is Fidelity, which lifts the upper frequencies to inject more sparkle and detail. Swapping the nozzles is as easy as changing an ear tip, but the effect is transformative.
Making Connections
The new IEMs feature a detachable cable system. Instead of making users buy or swap out entire cables, Oriveti has developed a screw-in connector system that makes changing jack plugs quick and secure. One high-quality cable is supplied alongside jack plugs for 3.5mm and 4.4mm.
For everyday use, the 3.5 mm connector screws securely into place. When paired with a balanced source at home or on a digital audio player, the 4.4mm plug can be fitted in seconds without the need for tools. This feature provides a new level of flexibility which is unusual at this price. The result, says Oriveti, is an IEM that adapts to the listener’s setup.
Oriveti has developed a screw connector that lets the user swap terminations between 3.5mm and 4.4mm.
ORIVETI
Although Oriveti has been creating earphones for years, the new Purecaster is described as a statement of intent to invite more listeners to experience what Oriveti is all about. For curious first-time buyers who want to dip their toes into the IEM waters, Purecaster is an affordable way to sample audiophile sound.
