You won't be disappointed in the EX

It's all about the tuning.

Liberty 4 NC

I don't think the tuning is going to check my boxes. I canceled my cheap Indiegogo purchase because I had doubts. But hey, it may be a shocker.

I am a Six Point Resin fan from NY. 9.1 ABV, no reason to mess around and waste time, it gets the job done.

Nice to see such a prominent name from the past back in the saddle with a new offering.

My biggest reservation since the beginning was one of the first comments I read made me think they have a traditional "eastern" tuning. I am more of a Western tuning guy, it is all a matter of tastes and preferred signature.

I would bet they are great for female vocals.

It's surprising how many used there are for sale on eBay after all of the rave reviews here.

The WM1ZM2 has such a beautiful tonality. With the Empire Ears Raven, the DAP really showcases its organic richness. Listening to the Snarky Puppy(Remixed & Remastered) Metropole Orkest as I type this and it is beyond decadent.

Lol...on my order receipt, holy smokes, not looking on my cable.

I understand OG; I was merely stating I have the one that doesn't say that, so it must be the 2nd version. It is still unwieldy but sounds good.

Agreed it is a good cable, but the challenge is real regarding ergonomics. I don't have the one that says OG.

No special cable...is there a specific IEM you want to use in the gym? If you want to PM so the thread isn't bogged with specifics please feel free?

Behind my head, in the back of my shirt at the gym. The other thing you can do is buy that case that has a clip on it.

Use B&O warranty....they are really good.

I have only three, Svanar, EX, and 4 NC, and I am good with that. The 4 NC was the deal of the century for 75.00. I don't use my Go Blu a lot; if I need a bit more power on the go or traveling, I do. It has a ton of power and isn't behind my ear, which I feel would annoy the heck out of me...

Yes...I have the iFi Go Blu, a different type of design but similar in premise; that is why it is proof that all of this is subjective and according to one's taste and usage. Obviously, I have quite a few TOTL IEMs, DAPS, and Headphones, but when I am listening to TWS, sound quality is so...

Hifiman is still my top SQ IEM. EX and 4 NC probably get more ear though

The R8II is one I haven't heard. I have a R6III(love it, great travel companion) and it isn't my first Hiby player. The baked-in plugins are badass. I would love to hear the R8II. I have had it in the cart a couple of times.

Welcome to the club of the informed.....

I am happy too....I wouldn't trade my Brazilian Tiger Burl Wood...

I am a late golden brick adopter, no doubt. This is the M2, not sure it matters. I am digging the DAPs overall warmth and richness. I have only begun to try the M2 with my collection of IEMs and have a feeling it will be an excellent pairing with the HE1000 Stealth as well, when I work my way to...

Raven and the gold brick :thumbsup: A rich and organic pairing!

What a rich, organic pairing the gold brick is with the Raven. Major WOW factor...
