received pm too, new tuning but more ex.
 
or did they change the dd driver to a smaller one?

Besides the number and different types of drivers, isn't the only difference between the Merlin and Martian the bass? I've heard the Merlin is more for bassheads compared to the Martian. I just bought the Maestro v2, but I'm still considering the Martian cause of the 2DD and 2BA. From reviews, it sounds like it has a very different sound that the Maestro.

Ha , one thing for sure is , audiophile are carrots . Or sea cucumber . Whichever one prefers

 

[somanydynamos]

tested both the Martian and the Merlin v2 and preferred the former.

the Martian has a better 3D imaging and nth to complain abt the bass; has both quality and quantity.

Martian

Ok noted that.. I know the sounds signature already
Thanks

 

[omastic]

Absolutely agree. I'm gonna mention those facts in my review. Only complaint I have is the soundstage. It's not very wide. But I'm kind of a stage addict since I purchased the Angie's

Agreed, Martian is not the widest sounding but I do find the imaging and presentation quite well layered and 3D regardless of the soundstage size.

Here's a potentially stupid question... Where the heck can one buy UM universals? I tried ordering directly from UM. They cancelled my order and issued me a refund saying they "Can't take my order". No further explanation.
I tried Musicteck, but they don't ship to Canada.
Any other legit distributors? Maybe I'm stupid or visually impaired, but I couldn't find a list of retailers on the various UM websites.

I would contact MusicTeck directly. I don't think there's an official dealer in Canada so they generally cover that base.

Try Stephen Guo at custom-iem.com or unique-melody.com

anybody got ear tips to recommend? 

 

[oknidius]

@Cotnijoe @kitaoji Thanks for the replies. Musicteck contacted me last night. I was able to put the order through.

They are an authorized UM dealer. I've ordered the Maestro, InEar SD4, and Earsonics SEM9 from them with no issues. Super fast shipping.
