DITA Audio’s storied legacy is built on three enduring anchors; a unique, undying faithfulness to the humble single dynamic driver, an intense devotion to precision engineering and impeccable build quality. The Mecha is the latest release showcasing a further evolution in those areas.

Mecha

At the heart of this newest creation is a single 10mm Lithium-Magnesium dynamic driver, sporting a dual magnet setup that boosts dynamic range and the performance of the driver. This is paired with a lustrous Titanium shell, precision machined from a single, solid block, processed and finished to bring out the natural gleam and beauty of Titanium. The fit and shape of the shell is also further enhanced by countless tests and redesigns, landing on an ergonomic and comfortable shell that emphasizes the user experience.

Every consideration was made so that Mecha seamlessly blends every component and choice into an atmospheric, immersive listening experience that is at once carefully calculated, yet dynamic and enjoyable.

The LiMa-Carbide Driver

Every titanium product in DITA’s lineup has featured a new generation of dynamic driver, and Mecha is no different.

The 10mm LiMa-Carbide makes its debut in Mecha. It is directly mounted onto the earphone’s titanium chassis, as close as possible to the sound output nozzle for minimal tunnel reflections.

Comprising a composite mix of Lithium and Magnesium, the 9mm diaphragm is far harder to fabricate than materials such as Lithium Aluminum or just aluminum.
Aptly named “LiMa-Carbide”, the driver features dual magnets to increase efficiency and power handling. Improvements that can be audibly perceived through the entire frequency range, but particularly lower frequency response times.

Additionally, the 1mm wide Carbide surround extends the performance of the driver through greater linearity achieving a clean, uncluttered delineation of instruments. The end-result is a driver that allows for greater extension with minimal breakup, as such, low frequencies shine without intruding on the luscious, mid-range response that is so crucial to defining Mecha’s sound signature.

Dual venting is incorporated into the final design of the driver to maximize the potential of the acoustic chamber. Designed together, the vents work closely with the volume of the acoustic chamber to tread a delicate balance achieving satisfactory bass response with delicate highs and a rich tonality.

The testing of every driver that leaves our production line is done on a state-of-the-art Klippel Analyzer before being assembled into the rest of the housing, and subsequently tested once more to ensure that pre-assembly and post-assembly tolerances are met and adhered to.

The Churro Cable

Each of DITA’s mainline entries have traditionally been equipped with a custom-designed and produced cable. Mecha is no exception.

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.

The Awesome Plug Version 2 Interchangeable Plug: In 3 Configurations

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.
Another characteristic of DITA’s APV2 type C connector is its conveniently low power usage.

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.

Accessory Pack

Mecha comes with a curated accessories pack featuring the fan-favourite mini DITA-Tanos systainer cases first introduced with the Project M.

Ever a classic choice, final’s Type-E eartips are available in their five-size carry-case. Rounding out the eartip selection is the inclusion of final Audio’s Wide-Bore Type-E eartips, which will be included in the package in Size M and will, ideally, appropriately augment any audio-lover’s listening experience.
