Do keep in mind the A6 is a large iem so fitment could be a challenge but the right tips can remedy that for most.
Well, from what I can tell, I have extremely large ear canals. I'm not sure if that's the area of fit you're referring but I have to use 12-14mm foam tips, if so I may have a fighting chance for a decent fit. But this concern you raise tells me I need to buy them from a company that would make a return process very easy, especially at $240 - I ain't interested in keeping a $250 set of earphones that don't fit me!The A6 is LZ's latest rendition of the A4 as far as I can tell and based on my Mini A6 I'm sure they are the fashizzle as well as being worth the extra $45
I doubt that you will have problems with the size of the a6. How is the size of the shozy form 1.1? Is it big or small to you?Well, from what I can tell, I have extremely large ear canals.

The housing of the Shozy seems small to average to me but with large foam tips, the fit is better than anything I own; once they are inserted, "fit" never enters my mind again. I personally believe the "resin" form factor suits me better than an Urbanfun or Blon design so I would tend to "lean" towards this for a higher priced purchase, meaning it's highly doubtful I would buy something designed like the Blons if I were spending significant money, such as what I'm considering here. As long as the tube on the A6 is proper in depth, I doubt that they will be too big. But like I said, to be on the safe side, its probably more advantageous at this price point to purchase somewhere they can be easily returned - ...just in case
I would advise that @FuelMan if he is interested in the tin P1, to wait for the p2. There is too many factors that have a huge impact on sound with the P1 (fit, bass and power requirement). Hopefully the p2 solves the bass and fit issues, but doubt that the power requirement will get reduced since all planars need it.
Ya know, I've always been intrigued by the P1 reviews but concluded the base may be a challenge. Not that I demand abnormal amounts but I have to admit, I do enjoy the "fun" of a slight elevation in this area, so for $169 I kind of put the thought out of my mind. I never really considered an newer version that may hit the market. I'm very interested to audition the technology but would likely wait until an updated version is available. I'm told that the Hiby R5 balanced output is right at 1 watt, would that be sufficient for something like the P1's? I mean I'm sure the more the better but I would think a watt would likely do it.
Just ordered this Reecho GY-07 as sort of a blind buy. A single BA bullet-style IEM for around 15 bucks seemed like a decent deal, esp given they apparently provided actual measurements (which don't look half bad). These also have an unusually high impedance of 65 ohms, so I'm really curious overall. Hopefully they won't take too long to arrive.
The ikko OH10 is killer.
The Iduns are on their way. They should arrive this weekend. Thanks...Come on everyone knows the second coming of Christ was the Rock Zircon
As far as the IDUN you may want to steer clear if you like bumpin" bass as the IDUN is one of the most Mid-Centric iem's I own of course I'm old school and the music truly does live in the Mid-Range. They are super detailed and their sub bass is nice but once again if you like full spectrum bass they would not be pick number one and maybe even up thru pick 5!

Doesn’t look like a balanced armature in the exploded diagram:
