I would recommend you hang on until Xmas and after... EA do a 20% discount during holidays... I seem to recall they also do a Black Friday discount but I don’t think it as much as the 20%... I would recommend the Lionheart if you’re after that specific sound signature....

I found the same until I realised that I have a few versions of the same song and the tags were different.... whether live, Studio, album, single etc.. for I never realised how different the vol levels were across my collection until using the 6K... on a few occasions I have managed to clean...

Thanks mate... I have so many Spinfits here as well as Spirals,Comply’s Symbios and so many more... in fact it’s a whole shoebox full..!! I tried them all and specifically with the 360 I found the insertion wasn’t deep enough for me... I really think to optimise the Ara you need a deep ear...

So after a few weeks now with the Ara... I am still very pleased I bought them... the quality of the sound still catches me when I haven’t heard them for a day or two... I have finally found the perfect cable for it and for me...!! Without doubt it’s the ALO Reference 8... it seems to give me...

I found that if you access the Lotoo Paw Gold manual there is more information on using the PMEQ and making schemes etc I also found this stand alone guide from Lotoo regarding using the PMEQ (found more by luck than judgement) Hopefully others might find it useful so I attach the 3 pages of...

As I said mate, I have only heard the K mod... the key word was ‘only’.... But thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge...even though it wasn’t needed.. 😂

It’s strange that Lotoo don’t explain how to access the PMEQ ... either in there manual or on their website.... Just one more reason that makes this forum so valuable to us all.... 😃 So far I have set up a couple of schemes on the 6K... one for the Ara and one for the Solaris... I keep...

I have only very briefly heard a K mod WM1A and my memory of it was that the WM1A was very warm rather than the natural of the unmodded... The P6K is much more neutral but there’s a lot of flexibility, I have found, in the PMEQ... the Solaris sounds much more airer and I know exactly how that...

I spent last night playing around with the EQ... It’s better than I expected... !! It’s so very very detailed in the way you can micro adjust your gains and it allows you to do it across a full spectrum of frequencies... It’s more flexible than any I have used before..., in a word ... Wow...

Thanks mate I appreciate your help. I will give it a try now... I didn’t realise that you needed to create a file... I saw the option and tried it with the presets but that was as far as I went... Thanks again 😀

Mine arrived this morning.... It sounds as good as I had hoped... I’m really pleased I took the plunge after doing far too much dosh on trying so so many different makes and models...! I wish I would have found these a few grand back..! :wink: I can’t believe how much it opens up my...

I tried to do that myself but I never gave me the isolation I was after.... but then I am useless at DIY...! 😂

Nice review @cleg .... your comments on sound are pretty close to my own sense of the sound.. it’s odd because we weren’t even close on the Solaris.. :wink: You should play around with your cables and ear tips.... and EQ ..I think you will be quite surprised just how much you can play around...

I heard the Nobles at a show but they weren’t really my cup of tea.... I found the bass and mids bleed... or blur... I listened to them on my WM1A and my cable and I was glad I could go back to my Solaris... My experience of the WM1Z was a while ago but for me it’s a great sound but too warm...

I had to look up what ‘carapace’ meant..... ! Ken.... although we all take care of our iems but in terms of what that screenshot says at the bottom about... “not throwing them in your pocket..” I thought the introduction of the ‘boot’ helped improve the robustness of a BA iem... like the...

I understand what you mean but it’s the other way round, in terms of the way I look at these, to me they aren’t ‘missing’ anything but rather it just simply has a different tuning that is designed to create an almost flat sound... I think as long as you (pl) understand that this iem is designed...

Thats a very true statement.... and even better with these new ‘boots’ not only makes the build less fiddly but the also protects the drivers in situ against displacement and damage to the overall performance... I have spent so much chasing the sound I want and I have found my ideal with CFA...

So far I have found the WM1A great with the Ara.. indeed for me it sounds better than the Solaris OG does using the same cables & ear tips .... I did ask CA for any comments on the EQ and they said adjust “the 125-250 and 4k-8k range” Funnily enough I have a 6000 on its way so I’ll be...

Thanks for the replies... I appreciate your help I did read about the exFAT & FAT32.... earlier in this thread.... but I wasn’t sure if the SD card coming out of my WM1A was one or the other... From that I was then wondering if I was better , not only, reformatting the card but if I should...

Hi guys I am expecting my 6K soon and I have done the usual read of the manual on line... Does anyone know when inserting the SD card if it needs to be clean or can you just pop your existing full SD card into it ...? The SD card is currently in my WM1A.... And if I don’t need to clean the SD...

OOI ..... what source are you using? After having mine for a week or so I found the sound changes depending on ear tips cables and source... Right now I am finding the Electro Acousti cables to be better than my others EA and Linum... considering the significant price difference I am surprised...

I received my Aras yesterday and I haven’t put them down...! They really are what I consider a reference sound... not studio reference but reference as in what the studio wanted us to hear... A very flat sound with great detail.... for me it’s not a musical sound like my Solaris.. But the Ara...

I am just getting so much more than I did before from my WM1A and CA Solaris.... it’s like a completely new listening experience.... I am using some custom ear tips from Custom Art... The sound has really opened up and the isolation is very very good far better than any of the universal ear...

I just checked and He won’t be relisting the case for about another 2 weeks mate... the guy that actually makes the case is/has been away and should be back in a couple of weeks...

Here’s a couple of pics...
