I don’t believe it is the 100 as I already have a pair and they are quite different. I was thinking it’s a 155 but I’m also thinking they look different too… hmm

I find edm to be a really good test genre for headphones. So much shit happening all at once. When I get new gear I always listen through an entire flume album lmao

Might be the wrong place for this but does anyone know what the spinfit tips are that come with 64 audio IEM’s haha. I might need new ones but I can’t find what they are anywhere!

Would you be able to splurge a bit for a the dunu sa6? Comfort on that thing is off the charts. Fits super well in most ears. Also what kinda of sound are you looking for. Depending on that, some sets you may be able to find even cheaper that will work for you

Budget?

Assuming you are talking about putting different ones on the same cable, no I haven’t haha. Have you?

Noire slams really really hard especially when EQ’d. I have no idea how people say these lack bass if they are getting a proper fit with them because even without eq it slaps. In a way, it kinda just sounds like a bigger mest haha. Mest has more defined imaging and separation I think but the noires give me a more more “grand” feeling to the music, especially when using the oratory preset of harman

I also found male vocals to just be way too thin also. It’s the type of sound that really only works for female singers. I don’t see why it’s recommended so often when so few genres can actually take advantage of it. It may be somewhat accurate but it’s definitely not a fun listen for my personal taste

The sa6 at the back

I’m actually very curious to hear your thoughts on the a4s compared to the u6t

These modules seem to be very earphone dependent on which is best. I find the m15 to work best with these just for an overall balance. The m20 can be fun and is better for walking around due to isolation but it also muddies the sound signature a bit.

I think fit is the biggest deal breaker for an iem tbh. I’m fairly sure the 12t and 6t use the same BA driver types for the bass but the 6t hits harder. However, there is no need to worry about bass quality here. I’m a bit of a bass head and I actually really enjoy the ba bass on the u6t and could definitely trick anyone into thinking it’s a dynamic driver unless you were some sort of expert. But trust me it’s really good bass

And I’d argue are also the few to actually live up to the hype (cough cough variations)… except for the u6t which I think is super underrated

It would be nice to hear your opinions on it once you receive it. The whole pressure system on 64 earphones is so nice for long term listening especially coming from the andromeda which is fully closed off. And that tia driver really does sound different from everything I’ve tried.

Subjectively:

1. U6t (because of comfort and non fatiguing sound with fun bass and good resolution)
2. Mest mk2 (wish I could put this at #1 but I’d prefer the U6t if I were to have one IEM for life)
3. Andromeda 2020
4. Dunu sa6
5. Ie600 (too much treble for me)

Probably objectively:

1. Mest mk2
2. U6t
3. Andromeda = ie600 (depends on the type of sound you prefer)
4. Dunu sa6 (just doesn’t beat the others in terms of resolution)

I’ve tried his SA6 quite a few times now because they are honestly so comfortable that it surprises me every time. I don’t think there’s an aspect in which the dunu wins against the mest in terms of sound quality though. That being said, I really enjoy it’s tonality and could be happy with them being my only IEM. The sa6 is just a really good all rounder, it’s not offensive at any part of the frequency and is just a really easy listen but that also might make it boring to some, I quite liked it. I think I wish it just had more resolution but hopefully the new dunu models fix that.

Easily the most resolving IEM I have heard. It’s also the first one I’ve tried where at my first listen I thought wow I see why this is so expensive. For tonality and just normal enjoyment I kind of prefer the u6t but if I want to just be wowed by music I’ll use the mest. It’s also no where near as comfortable as the u6t and has a FAT nozzle. Along with that I find it’s treble peak to be a bit fatiguing after a while but damn does this thing have soundstage and depth and really natural sounding vocals… almost like a performance is happening in front of you. I believe the bass hits much harder than it shows on a graph.

Met up with a friend to try each others gear. Thought this was a pretty sick photo so I decided to post it. If anyone wants impressions feel free to ask. I can provide some on the ie600 and the sa6 but those aren’t mine, however I could get my friend to hop into this post too. (Hoping this comment is long enough now to let me post this)

Saw someone suggesting the hd800… meh, I wasn’t a fan when I tried it especially compared to the 660s. It just sounded so much thinner and less engaging. If you can stomach a focal clear then sure. If you don’t care about subbass then try a 660. The meze 109 was fantastic also. Something cheaper might be the edition XS however I think you might want to eq it since vocals might sound a bit thinner than what you are used to and the oratory preset works really well

I’ll put my cents in here. I had one couple but returned both because of qc issues but that’s besides the point. Powering them off a fiio e10k was not enough (bass started to distort at higher volumes) and my smsl c200 made them sound much better imo. However I did really like to eq them. Try out the oritory1990 preset eq I think is what it’s called or just add a bass shelf but I think the preset is really good. Trust me, these headphones can literally please anyone if EQ’d

If you aren’t sensitive to the higher frequencies and want more bass then 100% get the 1990. The sen 6 series just doesn’t have any subbass or at least enough for me. However for vocals or any instruments they sound really nutty

I only looked through these comments a bit and saw a bunch of people saying you might not need an amp. I’d definitely argue you should get an amp/dac combo around the $200 range if you can. I think what you have might power it “fine” but the loudness you will get out of them is going to be severely hindered. Even my old hd598 sounds better with some power than with my phone or computer and it requires less power than what you have

Black skinhead - kanye west (just sounds really good on bassy stuff)

Resynthesis 3d - max Cooper (imaging)

La cienega - 88 rising (female vocals)

Jaded - drake (too see how the headphone will react to bass)
