(Review) Unique Melody Miracle - A Personal Take
Hi, To address some of your question and concern, though it's been a while since I listened to the Mage (demo set), I definitely think the Miracle will provide a good improvement, especially in the midrange. Now, to address your concern regarding 'fleshy' mids it's going to be a lil...- Whizz

Which one is the best for pop music in these 3 custom : heir audio 8A, UM merlin and UM miracle?
Rather than the choices above, I'd strongly suggest the Fitear TG334! The overall sound signature is definitely very suitable for popular music nowadays.- Whizz

Unique Melody Miracle Review & Impressions Thread
I own the Miracle, and heard the TG334! at Fujiya Avic event during my trip in July. I definitely still prefer my Miracle overall, though that might be a personal bias, I still think Miracle is overall more versatile than TG334! which is very good sounding especially for popular music nowadays...- Whizz

Clas or fostex ?
As a UM Miracle user myself, I have to say the Fostex HP-P1 does not really add any coloration to Miracle, if anything it just provides you with a more transparent view between you and your music with an effortless soundstage and presentation, and it has plenty of juice to drive the Miracle, so...- Whizz

Listening difference between Merlin and Miracle?
The demo sets really didn't do the real thing justice from my personal experience, the Merlin demo really do sounds pretty bad and the Miracle as described in my review, sounds 'average' compared to other high end universal IEM and definitely inferior to my own full custom set.- Whizz

Advice on custom IEM - Westone ES5 vs Unique Melody Miracle vs Earsonics EM4/EM6
If you like earsonic sound signature, especially the sm3 (thick sound, overall smooth treble) and love hard hitting bass, then UM Miracle might not fit those (though you can audition it yourself if you live in KL to get an idea), other custom-iem to consider besides ES5 would be the ACS T1 (can...- Whizz

3 high-tier universal IEMs for a wide variety of genres
If you're gonna pair with E17, the CK100 will offer the best synergy. Its bright and transparent signature with slight emphasis in midrange will pair well with the smooth and full sounding signature of E17. Though with that choice of yours, you might want to consider Westone 4 as well.- Whizz

GoVibe Vest amp and DAC 24/192 (upsampled from 96kHz) Dual WMA8740
Perhaps I can offer my personal thought of it. I listened to the Vestamp+ sometime ago at Jaben along with other GoVibe and iBasso DAC/Amp, out of the D6, D7, Magnum, Vestamp+, Portatube+ with my UM Miracle custom-iem, the D7 and Magnum (which I own) come out as the better one in terms of...- Whizz

Custom IEM that resembles the sound signature of W4?
...of ES5 will provides a better experience than the more neutral midrange of Miracle, though can't really go wrong with either one as I was once in the same dilemma like TS, considering either ES5 or Miracle. *Though when comparing to the HD800, none of the 2 will give that sound signature.- Whizz

Review by 'Whizz' on item 'Unique Melody Miracle'
If I could use one word to describe the sound of UM Miracle it would be Poised. Feed any genre of music to it, and the Miracle will present it with an admirably poised manners.
