And here we are! My name engraved on both the Maestro SE and Mini up top was a wonderful suprise.

I put a few hours into the Maestro SE and am pleasantly surprised. It's truly a cinematic experience - the best way I can describe it in a sentence.

How the bass does not overpower or bleed into the rest of the signature, I do not know.

More impressions to come soon. Starting to put the Mini through it's paces as well today!

These are the custom MSE, right? Curious how the fit is

Hey folks,

I just wanted to take a moment to introduce @CartrKellr - you may see some answers to questions from him sometimes when I can't attend to something.
He'll be supporting me for FatFreq & PluSound-related topics.

I'll let Carter do an intro for himself when he sees this!

any of you guys have any idea if you can get the Maestro SE premium cable directly with a Pentacon plug instead of the thing it has now with adapters?

I have no clue, it’s worth giving them a shout and asking. I’m thinking about replacing mine with a Cleo 2 4 or 8 wire. I actually really like the premium cable but it’s quite heavy with that hardware.

actualy I talked to them on the site, they answered instantly on the live chat, already sent them 300$ and they can do hardware matched fixed 4.4mm plug. Also I did try the EA Centurion on them, it doesn't sound good. the bass is odd with that, muddy idk. I also had a EA bespoke horus+cleopatra 8wire on them, didn't like it. usualy I don't even take the stock cable out of the box when I buy IEM's, but I just love a coloured cable. and I love thick cables so I decided to give it a try,and I love the sound over the other two. I did not try my orpheus yet and I don't know if I want to. to my ears it's perfect with the upgrade cable. can't wait to get the upgraded upgrade one :)

I spoke to Ben from FF yesterday, they said this cable was specifically chosen for the MSE so that could explain the excellent synergy, I also really like it myself. I just want it to be lighter! lol.

I always find that the thicker the cable is the better bass I get so now I'm willing to cary a garden hose around and not miss out on the bass. this is why my Centurion is for sale, I feel it gives more clarity at the expense of deeper bass, unlike the orpheus. can't wait to see what the Brise Yatono Ultimate 8w can do

looking for the perfect match all the time, but you know it better than me :D

I tried the Brise YU-8 wire on the universal model, it was a really nice combination for me but I couldn't stomach the fact the cable cost more than the IEM itself.

cables are usually part of the permanent collection, unlike IEMs that come and go. this is how I justify it to myself
