Suuuuper tempting. Loved the tour set of universals. I'm trying to be on good behavior and not buy things immediately after a tour, hah!If anyone is interested in a custom M5 for purchase shoot me a DM, I need to sell one of my CIEMs. Would rather let go of the 18s though.

Had similar experience as your review with the VxV , just found myself listening to this one continuously its has a tuning that keeps you glued. My only issue is the angle of the connectors for their stock cable.Lots of attention for the VxV and for good reason I think. I love these and they have been tremendous fun to review. Time for a 'take 2' on Twister6 (will mirror here soon of course as well):
What dac would be recommended to use whit the m4s?

Walt, we're you able to get both Adapters to work, one of them keeps cutting out on me?
I only used the 2.5mm adapter. It worked for me without issue. Don't know about the 3.5mm, didn't use it., we're you able to get both Adapters to work, one of them keeps cutting out on me?
Edit: I'm having tour envy, I want those M5 back, hah! I loved the Ely but didn't feel the same way when they left.

So you didn't try the two-pin converters? I think I'll call FIR tomorrow and see if I can get another set sent out.

I had the tour set before uthood did and I can confirm the 2pin adapters did not work on arrival

Okay, just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong, thanks! I'll give FIR a call later today.

Honestly, it’s been great with anything I throw at it. Whether it be my DAPs (DP-X1 & WM1A), my BTR5, iPhone dongle, or heck even my E30+THX 789, the tonality stays the same. But it does scale up in terms of detail and staging, with higher-end gear. It’s not a whole lot but it’s there.What dac would be recommended to use whit the m4s?
What do you currently use right now?
