Presentation:
The Jomo Flamenco comes in a very impressive looking Caviar Leather large display/protection box.
Inside the box there is an impressive striking blue solid CNC machined metal circular carry case with the Jomo Audio brand name on it.
It comes with 3.5 jack adaptor, airplane adaptor, cleaning tool, case clip and a very useful velcro strip.
This is very handy for keeping the cables together nicely. If the universal model is purchased the eartips below are included.
Cable
As a lot of you know, the team at earphonia.com are big fans of ‘Effect Audio’ for their well engineered, decent value beautiful cable range.
As with the Samba model, the Flamenco also comes with the addition of the Ares II cable which is an excellent pairing choice to compliment these earphones.
I selected the single ended cable but you can choose balanced also if you prefer.
