Does anyone know of any good DIY ear mold kits?

Apex works. Owning 64 Audio iems is enough of a testament to that.

Also my second u12t with the newly arrived Leo II.

Waiting to update my music collection before I try the Paw 6K.

How is the sound pairing with Leo ii? Thanks

I'll have to get back to you tomorrow about that.

My first u12t, I went between a Forza Claire hybrid and a PW Audio Saladin. The former had a fair bit of focus on the mid-bass and made it too boomy for my liking.

I'm also going from M11 Pro to a Paw 6000, so might require some a/b

Thanks! Because I’m thinking Leo ii or Cleopatra for my u12t as well. Not sure about Leo ii will too bright with u12t or not

I've only heard the Cleo off the Wraith so my experience is limited. It sounds kinda similar to the PW Single Crystal Silver based off of memory, a somewhat warm sounding silver, but for double the price.

The Leo II/ U12t combo off the Paw 6K is extremely good, I don't find it too bright at all. The biggest improvement I find is in the bass and treble compared to say the Pw Audio Saladin.

Curious what you find bright though?

Thanks kuro! Seem like Leo ii still the best pairing with u12t. I haven’t try before Leo ii, just my friend told me Leo ii sound abit bright for him.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! An year ago I had the Zeus paired with the Leo II and that was way too bright for me at times. The u12t isn't overly bright so it shouldn't have that affect

I’m not sure how similar the u12t is to the Trio, but I tried the Leo II with the Trio, and although it brought out a lot of detail, I found the pairing to be a little on the bright side. I found that it seemed to reduce the bass and increase the top end. But I guess it depends on what your preferred sound is as to whether you like that or not.

As a general rule of thumb for me hybrids seem to work with copper cables exclusively.

I can see why the Leo II + Trio pairing might end up being bright since they've pushed the Tia driver much further than on the u12t.

That review is pretty much spot on with that I hear for the A18s and well as comparisons to the A18t.

Quick question - Any cables around 100-ish that reduce (or eliminate) microphonics? I'm using the custom IEM variant if that makes a difference.
I LOVE the way the A12t sound, but when I'm walking outside I feel like the added microphonics (wind or just rubbing onto my clothes) just leaves me with 40% of the original experience, so I'm curious how you dudes handle that .

My personal pick is the Forza Audio Works. I use the hybrid with the U12t so should work well with the A12t. It’s a very clean yet smooth cable. If you wanter a little more warmth / body the all copper variant might be ideal. Though from everything I’ve read the custom version is a shade darker so the hybrid should have great synergy.

Looks good. I have a few questions though.
First and foremost, how do you compare microphonics with the stock cable? I'm mostly really into this aspect as I'm not sure I'll be able to tell the sonical difference a better cable could make.
Do you know which of the L-shaped 3.5mm jacks should be best? Or should they all kind of be on par with one another?
Did you find any differences in sound compared to the stock cable?
