For me, only foam worked, and I found Comply TX-500 to be better than the out-of-the-box foam tips. Any silicone tips were bright. I'm not sure if the Comply is deeper, but I think they're pretty similar. Either way, you might want to try them to see.

Based on my personal evolution, but it hits upon many of the more popular IEMs over the past decade: Audeo PFE232 - Leant to me by a friend for several months, this was the first time I spent an extensive amount of time with any IEM. Until this point, I had been using and enjoying Koss KSC-35s...

Can we keep the conversation focused on audio and this hobby we all love and leave the misogyny and transphobia out? It seems these days that this is one of the few online forums that's free of bigotry and divisive politics, and that's really a great thing.

That was a really great write-up that I somehow missed. It sounds like the Oslo would be great for me. Thank you!

Okay, I'm interested in hearing what you have to say. I'm using an EA Lionheart right now, and the impressions I've read make it seem like the Oslo signature is a touch better all around, especially according to @twister6 (who is spot on 100% of the time :wink:), but I've read other impressions...

Now that the Dita Oslo has been out for a while, does anyone have any updated opinions based on spending a lot of time pairing it with the U18?

Confession: I have a WM1A and just want an excuse to drop a lot of cash on a super high-end Sony DAP that's newer and does cooler stuff than the WM1Z, but it sounds like that's a long shot.

I agree that the SE846 makes EDM and hip-hop very exciting (in many cases more so than A/U18), but despite that it has a lot of faults. In terms of excitement, a personal theory of mine is that its tiny soundstage makes everything more forward, almost as if you're trapped in a small room with...

I have a 1A + U18. I blind bought the 1A, so I wasn't able to compare, but for me, the decision was a matter of 1) Being skeptical as to the difference in sound quality, 2) Weight (I carry my 1A with me to and from work almost every day, and I live in NYC so I'm walking with it, as opposed to...

Oh right, you said A18. Nevermind! :ksc75smile:

If you want it now, you can purchase b-stock, which is also 20% off, and they have some available now.

That's interesting. I have a Naim Mu-So Qb and Soundfreq Sound Rise clock/radio and it doesn't work on either. I wonder what makes it work on some and not on others. Like I said in my original post, my iPhone has no problem with this, so it's a little disappointing if the WM1A can only change...

Thanks RobertP and wakajazz for confirming. Apologies for bumping my own post, but I'm hoping it might catch the eye of someone who has insight into how you might change the volume when playing over bluetooth. The "Use Enhanced Mode" checkbox in "Audio Device Connection Settings," says...

I have a question about bluetooth and controlling the volume on my WM1A. I'm on the latest firmware, and when I connect to a bluetooth speaker, I can't control the volume with the WM1A and have to do it on the speaker. When I connect my iPhone over bluetooth or Airplay, I can control the...

For me, foam tips are the only type that worked with my U18. I too found the 64 Audio foam tips to be a tad small. I recommend trying Comply TX-500 (https://www.amazon.com/Comply-Cancelling-SoundPEATS-Symphonized-Replacement/dp/B002OOWBWK). The large size are a bit bigger than the stock 64...

Just to clarify, Christian has been responsive and straightforward about the wait time, so it's all fine.

I ordered the 4.4mm TRRRS to 3.5mm SE plug from Plussound in early February. After 4 weeks, I emailed Christian, and he told me it would actually be 8, so hopefully it ships soon.

I would look at Westone. They're very comfortable.

I picked up a similar case for $5 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J5JX9D6/ref=psdc_2267281011_t1_B00Y7Y15IQ It's just big enough for my U18s and an extra pair of tips, and it's pretty hard (which the 64 Audio case claims not to be).

Oddly, I had the same experience with Symbios. They made me slightly nauseous. So weird. Anyway, I've been on a mission to find the perfect tips for my U18s since receiving them almost 2 weeks ago. I've tried everything from the tips that 64 Audio included in the package to Symbio (regular...

No, I didn't try them first, but since Westone and Shure universals have worked so well for me, I just made the assumption that these would too. I think I could get used to the Comply if that's the best it's going to get, but I have Shure Olives, Spiral Dots, Symbio wide bores, and a bunch of...

I just ordered the link you recommended and the Spiral Dots! Thanks. :)

Thanks, can you give me a link for the o-ring (amazon or somewhere else)? I'm having trouble finding it.

I received my U18s yesterday. First of all, I want to thank all the contributors to this thread. It's been really informative for me, and having never heard any of the newer TOTL IEMs, the impressions everyone has shared have been invaluable in helping me make my decision. I think I'm still...

Accidental post. :)
