I have ADEL and will have Apex A18 Monday, I'll be able to give a pressure impression after a few hours although sound impressions take much longer.


Cool!  I bet you will love your new A18's

I have not done an A/B between the B1 and M15 but I am enjoying the sound of the M15. It appears to more detailed and airy. I also enjoyed the B1 however I haven't switched back to it since the M15 arrived.

Yea...  I am going to sell my ADEL modules (that is if anyone wants them) as I have lately only used them for test in the lab.  The M15 is a keeper!  I also put the M20's in if I need more isolation when monitor mixing.  The added bass is not as bad as the bass pounding your backbone from all the subs.

The m20 sounds better than s1 and b1. But causes fatigue quickly. I never get that with the Adel modules.

Also I don't get fatigue with campfire audio Jupiter iem. And that's been my experience so far. So I can't whole heartedly embrace the apex modules yet.

Maybe placebo effect?

What diameter are the pins for the 64 Audio products? I was at Shenzhen Audio yesterday and the pins on the few cables they had were all too large.

Meanwhile, the LCD 3 has ruined. Those are so much better and faster than the A12 even without an amp. My amp is coming next week and I am afraid I would have to upgrade eventually from the A12.
 
That said, I am not ready to give up the benefits of ADEL yet. Hope EE can come up with something really good soon.

Hell, even my LCD-2 is better than the U12, by a good stretch. That's physics for you. These little IEMs will only ever be GREAT for what they are. They'll never replace TOTL full-size headphones. There's no competition.

Pinky on THL!

I had no idea.

Well done and High Five!


Thanks mate. It's been a wild couple of months, and I'm enjoying it.

When I first tried the LCD 2F 2016 direct out of a Mojo I though that it had no Treble even when compared to the U12. I was then told that the LCD 2 tends to sound that way when it's not amped properly.
 
Meanwhile the LCD 3 sounds just plain better even right out of my DAP. I wonder how much the sound will improve with my Liquid Carbon.

@seamon

Don't throw in the towel too soon, I've found the A12 scales very well as you improve the gear ahead of it.

What amp are you getting?

Wouldn't you say that the A12 is performing at its peak with high end DAPs like DX200?
