I thought Trifecta was charming with Jazz but sounded sluggish nor have the speed to keep up with faster paced music like EDM.

I like the XE6 with Electronic (most sub genres but primarily EDM), Metalcore, Jazz, rock and small ensemble acoustic music. It sounds like Trifecta really spoke to you. That's probably the one. We may just have different preferences

Honestly, I think Viking Ragnar and Mentor are the best at the moment for me… VK generally a little more - according to mood, I like them both in their own way. They are really opposites, yep complementary! And I am looking for the third, last complement

My LOAK-TC is here.

I was greeted with a nicely packed box and a hand written note by Musashi-San, the owner and maker. This adds layer of personableness that makes an customer feel they are getting something special.

Initial Impressions OOTB:

634ears has W sound singature with emphasis on the Subbass. Mids are slight forward and elevated so the vocals can be in the front without masking the instrumentals. Treble has details but is roll off and smooth. No sibliance, brightness or fatigue.

Tonality is natural & clear. Timbre on point for a single DD but more importantly technicalities are superb. Layering and image is high tier for a single DD, although, the stage isn't as 3D or large, I believe its the right amount. More importantly, its warm, musical, and fun.

Built and tuned by a mastercraftsman Musashi-San.
I look to forward to future projects and I'm in the process of getting LOAK-TO open back for more air, better staging and balance.

634ears is a . If you have the funds, dont miss out on a smaller bontique IEM maker.

Any chance you can measure these? I am thinking about buying one. Reading his blog was a blast for IEM geek like myself, but I want to see the graph to at least have an idea before jumping in.

Your description of soundstage is not very reassuring to me though

As others have said, it's extraordinarily awesome for a certain % of my library, and quite terrible for a lot of the rest.

For me that % is pretty high, like at least 80%. While Xe6 could never be considered an all rounder, by this measure it’s close to being an all-rounder for me.

At all: out of curiosity, what music do you like best with the Xe6?

Classic, indie and alternative rock. Hip hop and rap. EDM, electronic, ambient. Generally the darker, alternative-er sides of many genres, which I think suits Xe6 perfectly.

I don’t listen to much if any metal or traditional jazz, so if it doesn’t do those well I wouldn’t know. I don’t do top40-type pop of any type either, J, K or otherwise.

Xe6 is probably not best for lighter folk, acoustic, or classical, but I didn’t hate it either for these. I’d probably switch to my A12t or Andro2020 if I found any issues.

I could no longer resist, Aune M1P ordered - love the old school MP3 player design/non-touch screen UI, very compact and with 2.5mm, 3.5mm, and 4.4mm.

The Fir Xe6 has a kinetic bass driver that fires outside the enclosure. If someone is sitting really close to you can they hear it playing????

Do you know if it has EQ? I like it too, but I really need a good EQ/PEQ for some of my IEMs.

I think it doesn't...

I wouldn't worry about stage. It's not massive, but not intimate either. Very good for single DD!

No I don’t think so, I didn’t see any mention in the specs

Wow look amazing bro.

Any photos? I am very curious to see how the Soranik prototype looks like...
Very cool they demo'd it.

Am I allowed to post photos here lol?

Just dropped by to say hello. SteveK sent me this thread's link the other day and well, it was cool reading through people's impressions. The IEMs were very 'primitive' when it were shown as schedule was very tight when we got ready for the CJ. Thanks to everyone's input (including Jude's) we know what and where needs improving.

Edit: I forgot to properly introduce myself. The name is Hieu and I am from Soranik, the guy in red shirt if anyone has seen the photos of last week CJ. We brought some demos of the MEMS prototype to the event and it was the coolest CJ I ever attended!

No. It’s nowhere near like open back headphones.
