    Cayin RU6: R-2R USB Dongle DAC with Head-Amp

    I don’t have a Mojo so I cant comment on that. I can say, however, that I personally am enjoying the EVO with the RU6 a lot. You are correct that the EVO comes across a bit meatier in combination with the RU6. I’m addicted to the sound signature of the two together. YMMV.

    Cayin RU6: R-2R USB Dongle DAC with Head-Amp

    I have never had it cut out, even during 3 hour listening sessions or longer through an iPhone 12 Pro to the RU6 to Etymotic EVO IEMs with a balanced SuperBaX cable from the 4.4mm jack. My volume level is usually around 36 to 39 with this setup.

    Etymotic Research EVO impressions and discussion thread

    I have a balanced SuperBaX I bought for my UE customs and agree it sounds amazing with the Etymotic EVO. In fact, it’s my new favorite combo in conjunction with my PAW6K.

    AirPods Max

    I’m not sure it would work but you could try Apple’s USB 3 to lightning camera adapter -> USB to lighting connector cable -> APM. I’m not sure it would work but it gets you lightning connector to lightning connector. I’m not home right now so I can’t try it.

    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    I ordered some from their New York office and I had to use a PDF form they gave me that I needed to put my credit card number on. It was a little sketchy but I did receive them after about 2 months. The part number was: 928542 and they were $17.50 for a pair of the wax guards. The form has the...

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    I wasn’t able to get a good seal with anything else as I have very little second bend to my ears and large canals. The foams were okay but they seemed to darken them a bit much. The newer double flanges came close to sealing but not on the right ear and also seemed to negatively impact the...

    It happened with the older gray triple flanges. I think the sleeve would get stretched at the nozzle over time and eventually loosen. The newer translucent ones haven’t come off on me yet.

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    Always a chance you could get a dud. Mine have always worked fine. The only issue I have had is occasionally having the triple flange tips come off deep in my ear canal and having to use tweezers to get them out. Not fun! Right now though, I am really enjoying the 3DT more. I am pretty addicted...

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    Not too big a deal. I reglued them myself with no issues and they have been fine ever since. It might be something others need to be aware of though as the eartip and nozzle could come off in one’s ear although this didn’t happen to me. They both came off at different times as I was removing an...

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    I’m in total agreement here. I know it sounds crazy, but If I were forced to keep only one IEM in my collection it would probably be the ER4XR. To me, it sounds more pleasing than the ER4SR. I like the slightly elevated bass. Definitely needs a tight seal and deep insertion to sound correct...

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    I like the Xelento’s size and fit better than the 3DT but the overall tonality is completely different. For me, the Xelento is very bass heavy with a little too much exaggeration in the low mids to the point that the bass can sometimes overpower things a bit depending upon the mix. I do like it...

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    I have to agree with you. I have been listening to these non-stop for a few weeks now and have been thoroughly testing quite a few different tips. So far, the Comply Comfort 500 is my favorite. There are a couple others that work and seal for me but the Complys seem to give me the best isolation...

    Unique Melody 3D Terminator 3DT Announcement Thread

    I received my set of UM 3DT IEMs from Musicteck about a week ago and am thoroughly impressed. Here is the review I posted and my thoughts after a week of usage: Upon first listen, I was pretty disappointed. They sounded thin and anemic with a lack of realism. After about 20 hours of burn-in...

    I removed the wire on mine as well. It makes a huge difference. On your recommendation, however, I have a replacement cable on the way. I prefer a 4.4mm balanced termination due to my DAP’s anyway. Can’t wait to get the new cables.
