Mecha: DITA's Mini Return to Form
“Mecha” stems from “mechanical,” reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship behind this Universal IEM. Each stage of manufacturing and engineering embodies years of expertise, culminating in a refined final creation.
At its core lies a 10mm Lithium-Magnesium Dynamic driver with a dual magnet system, enhancing dynamic range and performance. Encased in a precision-machined Titanium shell, the design emphasizes both durability and the natural elegance of Titanium.
Every detail of Mecha is harmonized to deliver an immersive, atmospheric listening experience that is precise, dynamic, and deeply enjoyable.
LiMa-Carbide Driver
The 10mm LiMa-Carbide driver debuts in Mecha, directly mounted near the nozzle to minimize reflections. Made from a Lithium-Magnesium composite, the 9mm diaphragm offers superior durability compared to standard materials. Its dual magnets boost efficiency and low-frequency response, while the 1mm Carbide surround enhances linearity for clear instrument separation. Dual vents optimize the acoustic chamber, balancing bass, highs, and tonal richness. The result is a dynamic driver delivering extended low frequencies without overshadowing the midrange, the key to Mecha’s signature sound.
The Process
Inspection
Each Titanium billet undergoes meticulous checks for defects and weight consistency to ensure optimal density.
Sizing
Larger blocks of Titanium are divided into smaller pieces for precision CNC-machining.
Rough Cut
Initial machining removes excess material, forming Mecha’s rough shape while leaving room for jig holes.
Jig Holes
Protrusions are cut to create jig holes, enabling secure, multi-axis machining for the final shape.
Cutting Bits
CNC machines use varied bits to refine the shape, automatically adjusted for precision.
Machining
Mecha is crafted in four parts (Top Left, Bottom Left, Top Right, Bottom Right) with internal chambers hollowed for drivers, connectors, and sound optimization, completing its design.
Design
Mecha’s design stems from Project M’s ergonomic shape, refined for machinability.
Key Features:
- Dual Ridge Design: The integral notch features striking dual ridges that enhance Mecha’s visual impact.
- Slanted Shell Cut: The slanted seam between shell halves integrates the 2-pin connector into one shell, avoiding a split seam. This enhances structural integrity and maintains a clean, uninterrupted perimeter line.
Churro Cable
Playfully named for the anti-tangle ridges running along its length, the Churro features a tangle-free soft-touch TPE sleeve chosen for its low microphonics and low degradation of the signal source. The Churro cable is constructed from Monofilament single crystal high purity copper silver-plated conductors internally jacketed in PE. It is responsible for the all-important task of transmitting the audio signal to the LiMa-Carbide driver.
The end-result is a silent, conducive, comfortable and incomparably immersive listening experience, regardless of how or where you prefer to listen to your music.
Interchangeable Plugs
Mecha is packaged with a 3.5mm single-ended, 4.4mm balanced and USB Type-C plugs.
DITA’s APV2 Type-C connector differentiates itself with class leading sample rates of up to 384KHz/32bit, and an extremely low noise floor making it more than well-equipped to handle any of the masterfully recorded tracks in the user’s music library.
While some additional power drain should be expected when using any Type-C accessory with your device, the APV2 Type-C features just 35mA of power use when the device is active and 15mA of power use when the device is on standby— a strength not to be overlooked in comparison to market alternatives that may consume up to 45mA and 25mA of active and standby current respectively.
