While the new elegant look of both UIEMs is an exciting refresh, we know you'll be most excited by things like:

-Both now come with all apex modules
-U18t exclusive shiny m20 module (pvd stainless steel)
-2 x cables (3.5mm & 4.4mm)
-U12t ships with our Pearl Premium Cable instead of Black
-U18t is now paired with a new SPC Eight-Braid Cable similar to the feel/finish of Solo's cable.

How about some new flagship IEM’s?

I almost crapped my pants thinking it was a U18t update. Womp…

Not sure about that U18t design, but the U12t looks great at least!

Pretty at least!

That U18t update is damn pretty… but was hoping for some sort of Fourte successor.

Haha I just edited my comment, I think the older one is nicer. This one looks a bit.. feminine-ish? Idk. That rose gold aesthetic just doesn’t do it for me.

Yeah, a new flagship UIEM/CIEM would be nice but … nvm.

Dang, those are some gorgeous aesthetic updates. Hopefully I'll get to check them out in person at a show this year.

The U12t looks more boring than before. Now it’s just…grey.

That U18t on the other hand looks very pretty! The description says “polished gold”, but I agree it looks like rose gold, which I love. I’d never pair rose gold with red though. Maybe it’s just the lighting in the photos.

Seems like 64 audio isn't able to compete with other manufacturers

Not in aesthetics, that’s for sure. But in audio quality, I’m a big fan of the Tia Trio and even the loved and hated original Fourte. I own the ‘23 Annihilator and Diva, but can’t bring myself to part with the Trio. It just slams and draws me back in and won’t let me go.

They need to ditch that “64” on the shell if they want to improve in aesthetics. No other way around it. The branding is just way too big and is a huge turnoff.

Hmmm…someone on another forum here mentioned that 64 Audio lost their creative forces when they left to launch Fir Audio. I haven’t heard any of their IEMs, but they look cool.

You need to practice your way with the katana to achieve greatness in combat with Dionysus.

Me waiting for some B stock as they can’t get the new designs quite right…

Certainly not my experience as owner of 64 Audio Fourté, Nio, Trio, Volür, Campfire Moon Rover, Solaris SH and Empire Ears Triton...
