Generally foam tips dampen the treble the most. I would recommend trying Comply tips if our stock foam tips don't do the trick for you. I particularly like the oval Comply tips for some of our treblier models.- mattv

As far as I know (or remember) our older cables that used the angled termination always had a black barrel. I believe that the previous owner of that U6t changed the termination, but I could be wrong.- mattv

Using a low impedance source would not make you "immune" to LID. It's really more the opposite. LID makes you immune to change in frequency response caused by high impedance sources. So if you are using an ultra low impedance chain then you would not notice any difference between an IEM with LID...- mattv

I believe what you're asking for would fall under the category of deep cleaning, which is available here for $75. That includes cleaning and diagnostic testing. If there is an issue that requires a repair our team will let you know and you can decide if you would like to pay for that or not.- mattv

We really don't recommend that you do that. If they need to be changed you can send it in for cleaning, but they need to stay there to protect the Tia driver.- mattv

No. The drive level is only one factor, but there are a lot of other factors at play as well. Again, the driver count is only one factor. The Trio and Fourte are priced higher for other reasons.- mattv

In the case of our CIEM's generally more drivers means more headroom and better power handling. Essentially by stacking multiples of the same drivers that are covering the same frequency range you can get more volume out of those drivers without working them as hard, which results in lower...- mattv

Thanks, PixelSquish, I hope you know that this kind of feedback means a lot to us here at 64 Audio. We make the IEM's that we want to listen to, and it always feels good to hear that you love them as much as we do.- mattv

We can replace the faceplate inlays, but you will need to submit an RMA. You can contact support@64audio.com to get the process started.- mattv

The U12t has only had cosmetic updates. The design and tuning has remained the same.- mattv

Yes, the cable can potentially damage the IEMs. Particularly if you try to fully insert them, the pins can puncture or crack the socket housing which will cause the IEM to leak and potentially allow the socket pins themselves to fall into the IEM which would require repair. We strongly recommend...- mattv
