I decided that the u18t ie not for me, what's another TOTL with a darker signature as clarity on some songs is too forward to me I dunno if i can tame it with the ibasso dx200 amp5 pr a cable or just get a warmer TOTL iem

Newly registered but a long-time lurker. I'm curious why the U18t if you have the Fourte & A12T?

Also I was curious anyone could comment on how well a Dragonfly Red would support the U12T and Fourte? Those are my two IEMs. I have a Hugo 2, it's great and while I can set it up at my desk while at work it's not exactly discrete. I'm intrigued with the Dragonfly's form factor as I can basically tuck that under my iPhone, eliminate all but the headphone cable and lightning adapter from sight. However, I don't want to toss out the money if it's a poor performer for my IEMs.

Also open to other ideas for good DACs that are relatively discrete. Thoughts?

DFR is my go-to commute DAC. I use it with all my IEMs (A12t, Andro, Vega, ER4XR). Works great for all of them. It's a clean no-frills DAC. Certainly gets the job done.

thing is with EDM i love the signature, but for some "commercial" tracks its a bit bright for my taste. COldplay sound boring, with lack of bass and in your face treble

The Legend X is too bright for you?? I mean it has treble but it is not bright. Maybe don’t get the A12t if that is too bright for you, the Tia drivers are kind of bright. I can’t help you, I really don’t think the LX are bright. Most TOTL are going to have some treble sparkle to some extent, especially if they have big bass.

Ohhhh, yeah I could see that. Damn I just sold my LX and bought a U18t, that would have been a perfect trade for you! Try the LX for sure, it has way less of a “reference personality”

Or even the bravado if you wanna go cheaper
