Any difference between with amp and not?
Amped is my only point of reference so far. I'll do some comparisons soon. I really like e10. I have both the e10 and e10k. I only listen with my windows based tablet. I can't use my hands so I don't use a phone or ipod anymore.( My tablet is controlled with my eyes.) but I'll check it out with my wife's phone later.

iphone 5 and ipod classic drive them just fine but I naturally prefer the E10k. I need to do some tip rolling. Been using the included Comply tips. Its missing some sparkle but bass is deep and solid and well balanced with the mids. Enjoying them so far! :D

Hello, I joined this forum to ask about the sound quality of the M6 pro. I've had these for about two weeks now. Since everyone is raving about how great they are, I feel kind of confused because I'm noticing a bit of a problem. I usually listen to electronic music such as trance, progressive house, deep house, and Hardstyle, which is quite demanding on all frequencies. So when I'm listening to music, the highs seem pretty harsh, which then ruin many of the synths in my music. I find this very noticeable in the song Walter White by Above & Beyond (at 2:30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KINbjhAV0qU). Before the M6 pros, i used the SoundMagic E10 and i never had that problem. Does anybody else hear this, or do I have a faulty pair of IEMs?

I hear this as well. I also listen to EDM like yours (but more of an Electro fan here). Yes, the highs are pretty harsh on the M6 PRO, and IMO their thin, recessed mids don't do much help either. I guess that's why I've never used it since.

A little late in the game but I just purchased an M6 Pro. I am mainly a headphones guy and my daily driver is the Ibasso DX50 with Fiio E12A driving a DT1350. I wanted a cheapie in-ears that I don't have to baby too much, that I could use directly off the DX50 and I finally settled on a pair of these. This is just my humble impression of them and I hope I can bring something new to the table.
 
I bought them from Lend Me Ur Ears where I got to audition all the so called "giant killers" that people like to call these in-ears.
Here's a list of what I tried within the price range of the M6 Pro:
 
Vsonic VSD3
Havi B3 Pro 1
Vsonic GR07
Meelectronic A151
ATH-IM50 (from Jaben)
 
For fun I also tried their own brand IEM, the Alpha and Delta, AD01, with and without their "upgrade cables".
 
I tried their higher end offerings in their shop, although I am yet willing to spend that much on IEMs for now. 
Kennerton Algiz (dark)
Dunu D2000J (wow)
FLC 8 (just as wow)
 
Getting back to the first 4 IEMs, I find the A151 nowhere near the other 4 made up of the GR07, VSD3, B3 and the M6 Pro. 
 
The GR07 is out because it is more expensive the the other 3 by a fair bit.
 
I bought the M6 Pro mainly because it fits my ear better then the rest. They all have different sound signatures but frankly I think no one would go wrong with any of them. I would probably buy the Havi over the VSD3. The M6 Pro has a nice case that can fit both my DX50 and the M6 Pro which is great because it meets my needs of just pairing the M6 Pro with the DX50.
 

 
The M6 Pro can sound shrill out of the box but even though I kinda sit on the fence with burn in of every audio products, I would say there's some difference here, because the audition copy in the shop sounds nowhere like the one that I have. But after playing some music on the M6 Pro for about 2-3 albums, they sounded less shrill. But nevertheless the M6 Pro can be bright at times and if one is not averse to a little EQ then it an be easily solved by dipping the bars a bit from 3.3khz onwards by 1-3 dB at least on the DX50. So far it sounds pretty good with Daft Punk, Loreena McKennit and Hans Zimmer. 
 
The M6 Pro runs well out of the DX50 directly and takes amping out of the Fiio E12A well, with or without the bass boost. For fun, I actually tried amping it with the Woo Audio WA6 but the bass just dropped out of it and sounded really shrilly. Weird, probably something to do with the damping factor but I have other 16 Ohm headphones that don't have an issue with the WA6. 
 
By the way, I also accidentally bought a Zero Audio Carbo Basso from Amazon ( Damn you, One-click ordering!) and that should be a total opposite to the M6 Pro but that's a story for another day!

: All in all for the price, it's really pretty good and the accessories make up for any other niggles. Bear in mind that these won't be my main phones, so I probably have a slightly more relaxed attitude towards their purchase. I am no audiophile and do not consider myself one and do take my impressions of them with much grains of salt. On the whole I am happy with it.

Looks like you don't like the A151 because of its thin sound?.....so FLC-8's "just as wow" is same "wow" as dn2kJ or better than it?.....btw, nice post.

Hi, I guess it comes down to a matter of preference. There's nothing very wrong with the A151, but the A151 is a single BA, and I personally find that single BA sometimes suffer from a lack of dynamic range. They tend to be either too thin sounding or too warm. The A151 sounds a little anemic to me. There are exceptions of course but I felt that it just wasn't as good as the newer offerings. It also does not have a removable cable although I like it's softer cable and lack of memory wire. Memory wire like the one in the M6 Pro can sometimes be an encumbrance.

I would say that both the Dunu DN2000J and the Flc 8 are pretty impressive as they should be for the price they command. They are somewhat different sounding when I heard both. But the Dunu and the Flc both has the ability for you to tune their sounds but I didn't tune it, although I could if I wanted to. In fact the Flc has 36 sound signatures. I don't think I can hear 36 sound signatures in an IEM but I believe you can definitely go for one that you like. It's difficult to describe but the thing about these 2 IEM is that they have a more "refined" sound to put it loosely that the sub $100 IEM didn't seem to possess. I know it sounds cliche that a more expensive IEM should sound "better", but if you can, you should give it a try and perhaps you will get what I'm blabbering about.

As a point of reference if you know the Beyer DT1350, then I would say that the Dunu or the Flc is somewhat like that but in IEM form. If driven well, they have a controlled bass response, a good midrange for vocals and highs that just stop of being too hot.

Pardon my vague non-audiophile speak, wish I could be clearer. Let me just assume that if you were to try them both, I feel you may not put them down because they are technically not good, just that you may just not like their sound.

Oh, and thank you for the compliment!

Hey absolutely true.....was just sayin that it's a single BA so bass is not enough to complement its mids and treble region.
 
And yeah, Im saving up for the FLC-8 and loved to hear to from you, between dn2kJ and flc-8 from what you heard from your short audtioning. And btw, the flc-8 has  another plus too -compatible tf10 cable......

And back to the topic: I'm on the fence for PRO6 but little worried about the treble, other than that, it's a wonderful IEM as a whole package,to A151.
 
Thanks again for your time!

You definitely have a point with single BA IEM in general. It can become a case of compromise.

If you are looking at the Flc 8, then do yourself a favor and check out the DN2KJ as well if you have a chance to audition them before buying.

Both are really good and are worthy of each other. But if you like the idea of having 36 ways to tweak your sound then definitely go for the Flc 8 and tell us all about it. I tried the "neutral" setting on the Flc 8 and I liked the mids, airy. Is that the right way to describe it? I am guessing it is pretty close to neutral.

I would probably lean towards the Dunu. It has arguably better construction, and less fiddly to me. But that's just me. I am also a little OCD sometimes and the Flc 8 would keep me busy tweaking instead of listening! Lol!

You may or may not have not have an issue with the treble on the M6 Pro. But if you have budget for the Flc 8 then you will definitely have more to choose from. Good luck!

I real almost the entire thread but a little too late. I'm waiting for M06P's arrival later this week. First IEM in ages.
I want to use them on stage and at gym, I think both cases are suitable.
Although I wonder how it would sound on schiit stack. Maybe a little hash ? hmmm

Just arrived.
Superb packaging. A really really rewarding unboxing experience.


First 20 mins sounded like I was in a sea of sun. Very very bright.
By the 40's, it started to settle down. Highs are a little less emphasized. Mid present.
I'm impressed of hearing more midbass than on my fullsize hp.
bass there but very weak.

UPDATE:
 


 
This equalizer sucks but does the job. I can now listen properly almost without any downsides.
SQ wise, for its prince, M06P good enough. In terms of built quality and durability, I went to the gym;walked on the rain and some woods, it felt safe and sturdy.
It's a keeper.
