100% agree with this. In fact, at that price, I’m not sure you can do better, at least based on the IEMs I’ve owned. Of course, “better” is completely subjective...Yeah I preferred the A18s too, but I can’t deny the “value” the price of a used U12t brings. It’s A LOT of IEM at that $1200-$1300 price point.

Still contemplating if I'll finally try out a CIEM and the obvious choice for me if ever is a A18s

Main issue right now I'd imagine is finding audiologists that are open and ready for business.Still contemplating if I'll finally try out a CIEM and the obvious choice for me if ever is a A18s

Depends where you are. I found 2 relatively easy in Florida a few weeks ago.
Not sure if anyone else saw this from 64 Audio. I saw it on Facebook and Instagram:

Crazy thing is that the Trio often get down there second hand as well. I mean between the u12t and Trio going for 1200-1400 you can't go wrong.100% agree with this. In fact, at that price, I’m not sure you can do better, at least based on the IEMs I’ve owned. Of course, “better” is completely subjective...

No thanks. No debt here and no desire for it.

I know I mentioned in my Nio review that I won't go crazy with kilobuck cable rolling, but someone asked me today how does Nio pairs up with PlusSound PPH8, since it was my favorite pair up with Fourte. Based on what I'm hearing while comparing PPH8 vs 64audio Premium Silver and Eletech Socrates, with PPH8 the soundstage spreads even wider, a very common change I noticed while pairing different IEMs with this cable. And also, Nio's mids/vocals are more forward and more transparent. Tested it with LPGT.
I'm not saying you have to spend on a cable as much, or more, than IEM itself, so please, put down your pitchfork I'm just sharing what I'm hearing and if you have PPH8 in your collection, give it a shot with Nio.

Interesting. Now when I go to the 64audio site it no longer says that I have to use an international dealer. Wonder if that is actually the case or not. Main reason being the a2e has dropped a bit and is currently cheapest way of trying apex out.

I have the Nio and looking at a cable upgrade, what do you recommend? The Eletech's new Socrates does look nice and would be within my budget range, would that be what you would recommend or would it be the PPH8?
