Be prepared for disappointment... To my ears, the differences are very minor, and dare I say that I prefer my less expensive Vegas to some of my more expensive whatevers.
but have u heard the legend x’s?

i’m talking about the micro black. the features on it are also incredible the xbass+ and 3D+ makes it pop, more fun and lively.
and i’m using the atlas’s
The ifi xdsd is what I am using and I love it. Had a Q5 that I liked but if you’re not going to use the switchable amp module the xdsd has more power, better volume increments and almost half the length.i’m talking about the micro black. the features on it are also incredible the xbass+ and 3D+ makes it pop, more fun and lively.

It is hard to explain or analyze why it sounds boring since it have almost perfect treble, mid, bass and soundstage.really? what makes it not fun and musical?
I also sold my Atlas recently, U12t with PW 1960s 4wires will be my end game IEM setup.but have u heard the legend x’s?

Does your remote work with the adapter. Mine doesn’t. I have used the adapter with other remotes and they worked fine.Comets + iPhone X (and dongle) is pretty darn good!
u12t gets you 95% to the sound of the U18t's, they are really not that far apart, certainly not the same amount as the price difference.
U12t is the little brother of the U18t. They share sonic similarities. Bass, for one, is pretty close to the same on the two, with the U18t having some extra body. U18t has a more sparkle and detail up top.
On second thought, from memory, the U18t have a big holographic sound which is really only hinted at with the U12t's.
Still, not worth the big price difference IMHO.
Like I said, I demoed them all, and I still prefer the sound of 12t then 18t. The extra details and sound stages from 18t does not mean it can bring more emotions to the song(vocal). Other then 18t, the ERLKONIG from Vision Ears might be a prefect end game IEM, however, one of my friend compared it with the u12t with 1960s 4 wires said he still prefer the u12t combo.don’t be greedy the audiophile in you won’t be satisfied ur going to end up getting the u18s eventually so why not aim for the real endgame

Yes. I own them along with Zeus, and several other IEMs priced at or around $2k. I've Owen several flagships, from several different companies. Not downplaying the quality of any of them, it's just very difficult to improve the sounds drastically once you reach a certain level IMHO. I haven't spent enough time with the Legends yet, but I do love what they sound like so far. It's not a knock on them, or any of the flagships I've heard. More of a compliment to some of the more "affordable" high end iems, such as Campfire Audio (Vegas and Andros, and probably Atlas as well).
I've just learned to temper my expectations at this level.
Sorry, not trying to set you up for disappointment. It also depends on the iems as well, there are some excellent choices that punch above their prices. Either way, the Legend X is an amazing iem, and so far one of the best I've heard. Spent a lot of time with them yesterday and I'm not disappointed in the least.
What iem are you upgrading from again?
