That should change pretty soon I reckon; Nic's review is free publicity
For those interested in UM though, a friend of mine recently recommended the (unfortunately) Japan-exclusive UM Maverick. It's a 5-driver hybrid and apparently it's got some of the best bass in an IEM I've ever heard. Now, I'm too far from Japan to confirm, but if anyone's in the vicinity or planning a trip to e-earphone anytime soon, a demo and impressions would be amazing.

Who told me two weeks ago they wouldn't be too sure of that when I picked Maestro V2?

I remember when it was launched it seemed pretty interesting. That's the one with both a BA and DD driver for the bass right? UM seems to have a bunch of interesting iems around, pity they keep some exclusive..That should change pretty soon I reckon; Nic's review is free publicity

The Maverick is a 4-BA + 1-DD hybrid. The 1-BA + 1-DD hybrid you're referring to might be the Macbeth. Yeah, UM tends to make their driver configurations globally available, but regionalize (if that's even a word) their tunings. The Mavis and the Martian, the Maestro and the Legacy and the Mason, the Maverick and the Merlin, and the list goes on and on...
No I meant this hybrid, it has a BA and DD driver dedicated to the bass
And the other 3 drivers for the rest of the FR.Here is a review from Berkhan, also a talented reviewer. He mentions the configuration.

Great review Nic!
Glad my brief impressions proved accurate. I could tell just from a few minutes of listening these were indeed lordly.
Enjoying my time with the Maestro V2 I was at one point considering making it a custom.
Nic...what a wonderful review.
Hello everybody, thank you for all the wonderful comments and likes. It provides me with motivation to go on and complete this thing, even though I have become a little bit tired of writing after all these weeks 
And also for all the people that have contributed so far in whatever way to make this a fun thread to read. Please know it is deeply appreciated, as I can't do it by myself. Bordering on 200 pages now, and some of those actually discussing iems!
