Hi Lukalop. If you don't have faith in people's impressions regarding higher performance of AK, I suggest trying them out if you can run into them at a meet or etc.. I had a chance to audition it with UERM, and will have to say there is noticeable improvement over my Galaxy S4, so I'm a believer in good sources even for highly efficient IEMs. I think the improvement depends on the phones, and if the phones does not scale up, AK is not necessary IMO as I didn't thought the UE900 has a limit to how refined the sound is, and UERM goes beyond it.
So, I don't listen to people that say, it measures well so therefore it should all sound the same. I think there is more to it than that. Possibly these measurements do not provide the info that the designers take into account.
Not sure if you are aware of this but as it stands, UK is absolutely useless for auditioning gear. No meets here.
