Their Erlkonig was "Erl", Elysium was "Ely". This one, not sure if to call it Phonix or Phoenix, but I'm leaning more toward Phoenix.

Yummy abbriev - the VE Pho

Sadly, mine is not here yet

Oof! That's quite a long time. I remember you ordering it quite awhile ago. Soon I reckon, Phonix has began shipping worldwide.

Hahaha, Eletech is a lot of things but definitely not my one-man show! Meanwhile "Erl", "Ely" etc ...call it the"Pho" ? How does it compare to the Erl? A step up?

Eric, are you able to comment on the characteristics of the Eletech Tyrian and how it would pair with UM Mest v2 ?

Thank you

The Tyrian was a limited release for HK and unfortunately out of production. With the Tyrian, we've adding a shielded mesh with a more organic tuned SPC, making it a incredibly clean and natural with a pitch black background darkness. Unfortunately i've not had the UM Mest v2 come by our lab but I hear @Kiats enjoying it and would recommend the Socrates.

I also hear the stock cable is quite decent too!

Very nice! Socrates is such a sweet sounding cable with excellent dynamics and sparkle. While being so smooth and refined.

Yes the stock cable is actually quite decent indeed. And, yes, I suspect that the beneficial upgrade is likely to be the Socrates. Of course I am sure it will be stellar with the Iliad but the Socrates will be a very worthy upgrade indeed. Another thing to ponder, if @greenmac thinks the Mest MkII is a keeper is to ponder if UM can reshell it into a custom. I had the universal on demo for about a week. The custom is consistent and does away with the issues of trying to find an ear tip that works for you as well as the constant adjustments needed. The timbre, to my ears, improve as well. Primarily because the BCD has much greater impact.

@Kiats Agree, thank you for your recommendation This cable is also very managable and easy to keep

Just received my Proj 8 Plato cable. Workmanship of both the cable and the leather case is impeccable (as always). I’m still trying it out with my IEMs, so far I like it the most with VE8 and EVO. I’m going to stick with the latter pairing for now, the attacks of the bass are thumping and the clarity to mids and treble is v enjoyable to me. Aethestically, the cable’s silver and black colours are complimenting the EVO to a tee compliments to Eric and his team, I can’t wait to see what you are coming up with next!

Project 8 Fortitude has arrived. Just in time for the weekend. Thank you @Eric Chong
