I needed that validation for passing on every VC I see🤭
Depends on the amp…VC with my ECP DSHA3F is huge sounding headphone and only reason I have kept it but doesn’t perform that well with my Bliss.

No but I like my Rn6 more than my VC 🤭
Rn6 is certainly a more 'fun' listening session than the VC. Different strokes for sure but I still love the VC.

VC is more analytical. Rn6 produces more bass thanks to Kinetic. I won't get rid of my VC, or Rn6, either :)

Not even a knock on the sound. I love to own a VC/VO at one point and I almost pulled the trigger on a Camphor Burl one last year.

But I'm not ready to commit what I'd need for a setup like this given ny sunk cost fallacy for porta-fi.

Caldera Closed coming out soon too. Still on the VC/VO? :) I am hoping to add a CC in Koa Wood one day.

Rn6 still my most fun IEM to date; still semi curious about a custom (would be my first).

100% I use the Rn6 for top tier Hifi listening of all genres. I use the EVO's for EDM, but they're a phenomenal different flavor on other genres too.
I only use the VC for Classical Rock and instrumental music. It just doesn't have the bass to satisfy my hedonistic needs. I would never get rid of my VC's. I waited 2 years to snag one in stabilized green 1 of 1.

It's also more of a pain the butt for the past 7 months to set-up my desk-top set up for the VC's. I'll finally be in my permanent residence in 20 days x'D.

Depending on genres, I would go with an Atrium open. That didn't exist when I lusted after my VC (and had 2 open backs at the time). But I don't regret my VC and would never sell it. I am lucky enough to have both :L3000:

RN6 is way easier to drive and you won't regret that either =D RED MODULE ALL THE WAY!

Agree 100% again :) red module all day. Also lucky to have both, custom ordered my VC in Koa Wood last year... My favorite wood! Zach was great to work with.
