I reached out to one of their dealers (bloom audio), thankfully they'll be getting these eartips later this month. Looking forward to it.

A friend of mine ordered them a couple of years ago without listening to them beforehand, and I sometimes borrow the SH-3U for a couple of weeks to listen to. And last time just recently I was once again convinced that they are very impressive compared to peers in their price segment in terms of...

I can't say anything specific about the W500/W900 days or their current state except that they are becoming somewhat irrelevant imo, but a few years ago some mid-tier models were pretty well regarded in my circles. Mostly speaking of the AXH, which I owned and thought they were good at that time...

I was talking about the Dark Sky, which is more in line with the Minor based on limited impressions (apparently, Zepp carries this particular model, along with recently released Acoustunes). Dita's current flagship is called Perpetua, that price increase though...

Will you include the new DD's from FAudio and Dita? Also very interested in multiple releases/prototypes tuned by the Subtonic team.

Excellent person to buy from, very friendly communication with detailed answers and easy to deal with all the way through. Fully positive experience.

Pretty close to my hearing, I'd say. As for the tuning, I immediately noticed that the highs take a noticeable roll-off right after the lower treble region, with the upper midrange/lower treble area is perceived to be slightly elevated relative to the neutral level. The X6's bass extension is...

Great head-fier, very friendly communication. Highly recommended.

Excellent seller to deal with. Quick, smooth and accurate communication.

Could you point out, what's the difference in long-term engagement between the M9 and the U12t? Ultimately, they share similar tuning in terms of overall safe feeling, which probably reduces emotion over time. But the U12t doesn't seem to have the same effect for you as the M9.

@Matez Awesome deals. In addition, I sent a couple of emails trying to place an order for a hybrid cable with optional customizations. Just hoping that by the time you get to mine, you can still apply Black Friday prices. :relaxed:

Actually, I think Cowon DAPs are somewhat dark horses in my local community and across head-fi, which is quite unfair considering their potential. Their Plenue line (specifically, P2, P2 mk2 and PL) is simply amazing (among the best, I mean) for people who doesn't care about modern options...

Okay, maybe it really doesn't. As I remember, my Plenue 2 (and mk2 also) has gapless mode by default. Regarding elapsed time number, I see three possible options in main settings screen: Elapsed/Remaining/Elapsed+. You need the third one. And I can't help with Mac connection, but on Windows...

Cowon has well-structured official manual on their website that answers most questions. Hope this will help :relaxed:
