    Love 64 audio. One of the few high end IEM manufacturers that also prioritize comfort in addition to sound. Too many flagship chifi shells only fit large ears.

    I'd say their shells are actually only comfortable in small ears. They're painful for my medium-large ears unless I use very specific tips.

    7:42 so Crinacle was right. his method of the first 5-15 seconds innitial impression is what matters (most). so, remember folks, brain burn-in forces your brain to follow orders 😉

    Cool video PreCog A very hand made product! Several great interviews within. Still pretty hard to justify the $ asked, but the diminishing returns comment might inspire some listening. That begs the question, what is the price performance sweet spot in their s & t lines? As an audiophile it would be nice to see how good you can make something for say $1k vs we should sell this for a lot more because it sounds like others $2k products… Great behind the scenes video! Thanks,🙏

    Volur is a fabulous iem. First time a bass driver clearly takes a full step above the rest of the market. It does have a bit too much elevation between 200-400Hz at times for some genres, but it’s a very easy fix with EQ

    First iems in my life that passed the test of 5-15 sec with flying colors were Softears Twilight. They still amaze me after 4 months of almost everyday use. Ive sold my beloved u12t after getting the Twilight. The reasons for that were: 1- smoother and more natural treble on the Twilight and the 2- DD driver for the low end. I really loved the u12t but the trebles were just bit too harsh to my ears.

    I wish they had more variety in tuning and semi custom shell designs. All of their IEMs are kind of relaxed in the ear gain area. Their universal IEM shells just don't really work for me at all, the nozzle presses against the side of my ear canal and the shell presses against my crux helix and both get painful within an hour. For my ears all the included silicon tips either are too small to seal, or large enough to seal but the umbrella just collapses and folds over on itself and breaks the seal.

    Have you considered that we all have different tastes, and they have a house sound? Meaning if you don't like their house sound you're probably not going to like their stuff. I don't have any of their stuff, but it's just your comment sounds rather focused on a dissing rather than informing, if you were saying you prefer 7th Acoustics sound to 64 Audio that would be different than saying it's meh. Someone else might find the sound signature you like not great to them, that doesn't mean it is not, it simply means it is not to their taste.
