Just a heads up. DM6 stock cable is not very good. It sounds great with an OCC copper cable.
Secondly, sound is very tip dependent, so if you have issues with treble, change tips.
It makes a pretty massive difference.
Got the clear version myself, and paired with a 4.4mm ALO Audio pure OCC copper cable.

I can second this. I've been trying it with different tips to see which one I like it best with.

Hi, i am very interested in the dm6 aswell but I have been very scared all this time to take the plunge because I hear from a lot of people that it needs a good source and good cable to bring up the vocals and make them sound not recessed. I would like to ask if you think this iem would be suitable for my requirements (good vocals and soundstage) straight off my phone without any cables or a very decent source? Or do you feel the whizzer maybe a better choice off my phone? I would really appreciate your help as I am quite stuck here and thoroughly enjoyed your last rec in the os v3!

Hey! DM6 doesn't need more power. It has high sensitivity and low impedance. It's fine! I even hear some background noise in some of my devices. I'm using mine with Penon's CS819 cable at the moment.
Hope that helps. :)

Thanks for the help, but do you hear a difference in the vocals between the stock cable and the cs819 cable?

Waiting to my DM6 to arrive in couple of days .. Tracking shows it is with "Delivery service Provider" after arriving at the DHL Ecommerce Facility. Really excited to receive this.

also the DM6 has a hiss when paired with the N5iiS, can't wait for my IEMatch, I already have the ES100 because of the balanced output and I'm using it for my PC as a USB DAC, sounds really good, with no hiss

Sadly, I don't have BGVP's original cable. The only comparison I could make is with the Penon and iBasso IT01 cable and both of them sound good to me.

If you're buying on Penon, choose the DM6 with the copper and silver plated mixed braided cable if you can't buy another cable. The beauty of detachable IEMs is that you can always buy another cable when you want and have the moolah for 'em. :)
