That is super exciting news. I bought the FH5 3 years ago and it stopped my search for a wired IEM. Have not bought another since, and that was after owning CA Andromeda. Actually it is only somewhat exciting because it means I'm probably going to have to buy another set of TWS lol. I...

Very bizarre. I get a 404 page not found from Technics direct. Amazon shows them as unavailable. The AZ40 seems to be available everywhere but the 60 only on eBay for some reason. Very bizarre!

ANC not important and calls not important either. Just used for music and podcasts walking around, gym or at my desk. Size of case is really important. Want it to easily fit in my back pocket without a huge bulge.

Those look really nice but the case seems to be as large as the MT case. Really hoping to find something really small case wise. Is there a predecessor to the AZ60? It looks like they are only sold on the secondary market now.

Howdy everyone! Haven't posted in a few months. Went through quite a few different TWS units (Bose QC buds, Sony XM3 and XM4, Devialet Gemini) before settling on the Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch. I really like the way the MT sound (not as much as the Gemini, but the price, battery life etc...

I'm just getting caught up here. Interesting to see the EQs getting so much love. Any weird quirks or issues? Is the battery living up to the 6.5 hours advertised? I might be willing to plunk down the cash for 6.5 hours of ANC. Also curious if there any reviews out there that line up with...

I just noticed that the MT are back on Amazon as well for a discounted price of $119. I had the XM3 and XM4 before I got the MT. Both Sony's went back because the SQ of the MT was far superior to my ears. I have missed the anc a couple of times when on a plane, but for the most part the...

Definitely don't need the 1+ but at the $99 price point I'm really curious.

Apologies in advance if all of what I am about to say has already been covered. I struggle to keep up with this thread :sweat_smile: I have been enjoying the MT the most with the new "Immersive" preset. I guess that is because they have essentially just relabeled the previous "Balanced"...

I hear ya! I personally couldn't stand the sound sig of XM3 or XM4, but LOVED the rest of the features. I've actually considered buying a set of XM3 refurbs now that they are so cheap just because of how good the ANC, comfort, app support, etc was.

I would recommend giving the Moondrop Sparks a whirl. They fit weird due to the longish nozzle but I find them super comfortable regardless since they don't make contact with normal hotspot areas. No app support at this time but one is supposedly coming. They can be purchased from Amazon so...

I didn't have any issues with stock tips. I'd say the fit is a bit better with the Crystal tops for me just because they stick out less from my ears. Comfort and sound were not drastically changed with the Crystal. I need to go back and listen again with stock to do a comparison. I would say...

I only tried the Devialet and XM4 on Android devices. Surprisingly, both Android devices reacted very differently in terms of volume. That said I did have dev options enabled on one and not the other. I didn't explore much and kept listening on the one with more headroom/volume. Very funny...

I just ordered the EPro based on your recommendation. I've been using the Azla Crystal for the past week on the MT and have been enjoying those. Looking forward to trying these as well. I would love to get the Final TWS but am hoping for a US seller/distributor soon. Really love Final...

I agree with all of this. If you are really keen to spend more money, check out the Devialet Gemini $300USD. They sound the best out of everything I have tried (have not tried the PI7) including the XM4. I had multiple technical issues with mine and their battery life is not stellar (but...

I did not perceive any significant differences in SQ. Thought they sounded great either way.

I had two sets of Gemini. I will start by saying they were the best sounding TWS I owned and I wish I could have kept them. I unfortunately had the same problem with both sets that made me return them. When removing the right bud from my ear, the auto-pause function would not function. It...

I bought a set of Azla Crystal that I received yesterday. I have them both on the CA Melomania Touch and Moondrop Sparks. So far I really like these on both sets. The Sparks look less goofy due to deeper insertion. The MT with crystal tips, I spend WAY less time futzing with trying to get a...

Very good question and concern. I would say there are probably "internal only" documents related to drop testing for the big players (Sony, Bose, etc). For the smaller outfits it is probably an afterthought. The demand for TWS devices is clearly growing. Once the demand fully rolls over...

Will have to check out the E16. Interesting it hasn't gotten more press here. Looking forward to your impressions of N6 Pro 2.

Sorry. You are correct I was referring to the MT when I was talking about comfort and stability. I have had zero problems with stability with the Sparks, but haven't actually tried the back pocket test. They do stick way out of my ears though lol. Honestly at my age (40+) my concern for...

Definitely not saying either one is better at this point. Way too early for that. Just two very different animals.

I'm still letting my ears adjust to the CA Melomania Touch. After a week with the Moondrop Sparks this is a vastly different sound signature. So far the only thing I can definitively say is I LOVE the comfort and stability of these. They fit really well and don't stick out like most IEMs do...

Sorry for the late reply on this one. Still getting caught up after the past few days. I don't know much about the E16, and haven't seen much written about it here. I'm not opposed to trying it out. On paper looks pretty good. Do you own a set?

Got it. Thanks! I'm good with that.
