Can you be a little more specific about what made you like the M7 and M9 better than your Andromedas?

Andromeda is good, have lot of similarity with my M7, thick midrange, forwarded lower mids, have details and little bites, but the bass, the Andromeda totally lost to M7 (and M9 also for sure) to my ears, they are not as precise, not as deep and Sony have better texture there. then midrange, for me combined soundstage depth and layering with that warm, full yet very detail mids can't get beaten out by my Andromeda, both are non harsh on mids. High extension better on Andromeda by a step, but maybe still better on M9, soundstage width Andromeda is very wide, M7 not as wide as Andromeda but M7 have more "precision" and correct, with better depth, better layering.
So those 2 more redundant for me, and I like M7 better, then i said goodbye to the green one.

28AW 7n upocc litz with sedna xelastec and 60ohms adaptor pair with CalyxM (run Hi impendance), open up soundstage and boost extra bass depth with little bit of imagine,details. This combo is my best out of M9, (better than pair with WM-1A and stock cable)

I have ordered an ISN CU-4 premium copper cable for the M9. Where do I get the 60 0hm adaptor? Thanks for your help. I ordered the cable before the M9.

you can also found on amazon, 60-80 Ohms will boost extra bass whatever source can drive it

I sold my Andromeda when I got the M9. It sounded like the Andromeda plus the bass it was missing.

off topic but this is not what's frequency chart is saying : quite different in treble section, mids & bass are quite similar. Andromeda out of 0 ohm impedance output with large bore tips do not miss bass in my opinion.
I own Andro for quite some time and I had the chance to demo the M9 in Singapour and I felt they were lacking clarity & engagement --> overly smooth.
But I wish I could demo them once again for a longer time though

Even with the lowest bass IER-M9 sampled and highest bass Andromeda the M9 still has more bass.

Talk about the highs which are really different instead.
And to me they sound quite different anyway. M9 are not andro with bass sorry

You shouldn't be sorry because I don't feel bad since I don't think I'm wrong.

Found on Aliexpress. Thanks for the assist. Only 3.5 and I am all 4.4 and 2.5 balanced. Searched Amazon and no joy! Well, at least I have a good copper cable coming and some other Penon, ISN and Norne IEM cables to try.

Sure. Just allow me to disagree. That's it

Yeah, that graph "sounds" familiar to me. That was my impression when I had both side by side. M9 a bit more warm and Andro too bright. Between high mid and low high they are oposite and I could hear that.

Hi,

Would the Z1R stock cables fit the M9 or M7 mmcx sockets well? Thanks!

It worked ok for me.

Thanks! How does the sound compare to the stock M9 cable? I plan to buy new cables as the stock one that came with mine now has some cosmetic damage..
