I agree. For a company with so much experience and pedigree, they've really misread the room as to what sources buyers of expensive IEMs tend to use nowadays. With few exceptions, I imagine most of us have moved on from phones and dongles - although by the sounds of it this IEM is even too sensitive for dongles. Back to the drawing board...I’m not sure why Vision Ears do it. The Phonix was incredibly sensitive too and that was also a reason I parted with mine a few years ago.
At this point I just don’t like dealing with IEMs that are too easy or too hard to drive.
Edit: what's a single ended cable?
