There are two EQ options in UAPP. One is free and the other charges a few bucks, Toneboosters. I use the latter.
I did the research on UAPP and Toneboosters last year. I was going to do it until the issues I encountered with Tidal and my DAPs using any of the EQ apps native to the DAP and Wavelet.

This is my all time favorite tip!! So comfortable

I only wish they come in more sizes; they do run a bit small for large ear tip users. Fortunately I’m usually using something medium-sized so this works for me.

Fantastic review, spoken from the heart as well as the ears! I love it when an IEM (or any audio gear for that matter) evokes an open and honest emotional response, and when you can articulate that as eloquently as @Sajid Amit, that's quite something. After all, isn't that what we're constantly seeking in this hobby.

Of course it helps that I concur 100% with all of these sentiments, but even if I didn't, great video.

Agreed. @Sajid Amit talks so well and easily about headphones and IEMs. And I agree with almost all of his opinions..😊

I wouldn't classify that video as a review, more like gushing. I love the enthusiasm but some comparisons against other IEM's he has heard would have been nice (U12t, A8000, M9 etc). Either way, still very much want to hear EVO but I won't be getting rid of EXT, Odin or Z1R to fund a blind buy.

Well, after much thought about replacing my Zeus XR/PWA 1960 2-wire with an Odin (and an inability to get a demo to try), I'm keeping the Zeus and swapping out my AK SP1K for their new SP2000T. It has a regular amp, a tube amp and you can go hybrid with it as well. AND it has filters. For how much I love the sound of the Zeus, I just couldn't pull the trigger on an Odin without trying it out. And the AK has a 1-month return policy so if I hate it (very doubtful), I won't need to sell it.

If anyone here is looking for a near-mint AK SP1K with multiple cases and an expensive and hard-to-find VanNuys leather belt case, shoot me a pm or watch this space.

I just completed a tiny write-up(not a review)on ARH regarding the SP2Kt, ironic you mention it.
