Funny you post this because I was just searching to see if anyone else had the problem. Same issue for me, on an iPhone 14PM and the dongle lights up but no music plays. My adapters work fine with other dongles so I don’t think that’s what’s wrong. It’s been finicky before so I bet an update...

Huh interesting. Maybe by SoCal they'll have a final version I can actually check out. I honestly don't like their new look compared to the Mk2 so hopefully its an improvement.

Has anyone had more time with the UM Mest Mk3? I'm really interested to see what they changed from the Mk2, and the price for that matter!

The RU6 popping is normal as far as I know (mine does it too). It has a lot of issues to be honest but it sounds so good I put up with them :) I like the Q5K for its PEQ but I haven't tried higher-end Sabre dongles (like what RodC said about the Questyle) so they may ultimately be better as...

I've tried a handful of dongles and I think the RU6 is still your best bet. I mainly swap between that and a Qudelix right now. I find there's better clarity and bass on the q5k but the lovely warmth the RU6 adds is unbeatable (I also find it deepens the stage, but maybe its just placebo). I...

I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one lol. I might try an aftermarket cable but if this is an established issue that's super annoying. I still may try and get it replaced, I'm just worried I'm gonna step on it or something if it falls off. That's nuts, especially considering the increase in...

Hey lads. I got my MK2 a few months ago and adore it, but I'm getting an issue with the left bud where it literally just falls off the 2-pin connector. Like I'll take it out of my ear and it just falls off. I've never had this issue with an IEM before (much less one that cost me over a grand!)...

Has anyone here experienced both the Mest Mk2 and the IER-M9? I've owned the Mest for a few months now and really like it, but I'm thinking I maybe should have gotten the M9. I'm primarily looking for a very warm midrange and good bass with toned down treble. The Mest is lacking in the lower...

Is there any way to use Wavelet with UAPP while having a USB dac plugged in? As far as I can tell Wavelet just stops working after you use one. I want to use it with my Cayin RU6 or am I stuck with the UAPP eq?

I figured it out, it actually was EMI. Going into Airplane Mode stopped the noise but I couldn't stream, so on a hunch I turned off my mobile data and that completely fixed it. Its a bit annoying to have to do it every time I listen but worth it for the RU6. Thanks for the advice though!

Hey lads. I just bought an RU6 to pair with my Mest MK2 and I'm having some issues. The sound is wonderful but I am getting constant clicking and hissing noises while playing music through it. It isn't too bad on louder songs but makes anything soft unlistenable. It only seems to do this when...
