Excellent review. Quick, to the point and you speak the language! Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Great review as usual!
Looking forward to see more of iem contents!
Absolutely. Hope to do more IEM contents!
Congrats. You have great presentation and explanatory skills.
Nice review👌
Totally agrees with all you pointed out. I just bought u12t and loving it just as much as when I auditioned it few years back.
It even caught unexpected audio details in YOUR video!!
Eg:
Minutes 5:07 - Car honking sound makes me turned my head and rewind the video
Minutes 5:26 - Starting to hear the airplane sound passing by on top of your room. Are you living near the airport? Lol
Yeah lol
Hello, can I ask, is it really worth to buy U12T? (I am a regular AirPods Pro user that If I switch from Airpods to U12T, the difference will worth? Thank you)
@@kaankucuk1612 so i guess many would say that is an unfair comparison. But I also have no experience with real HiFi headphones and would like to hear or read what an expert would say 😊
I can't give a long term view. The left earpiece in my u12t failed after three uses. Waiting on 64 Audio to help me.
Thoughts on trying Tia Trio? Some used prices are getting near U12T.
Yeah. I predict that 64 audio prices for the Trio and Fourte will keep going down. People are just throwing them away, increasingly, it seems, although, of course there are some passionate owners.
agreed with all points...while A/Bing this one against VE extended, the bass of VE was more enjoyable and engaging, but overall I still liked U12t more than those purple monsters.

People also say that 64 Audio is only for musicians to use on stages or in studios. Me as a person who doesnt understand tunings etc.. (I have no relationship with stages/musicians…) can I use U12T 64Audio for daily usage? Thank you
Also, U12T or A8000 is better? People says that you cant enjoy with U12T get something like VE08? Is U12T really boring?
@@kaankucuk1612 I don't own U12T, but I been demoing for a few time. They sound relax, calm, pleasant, gentle, maybe life like. Those are the word I can say find at them. They are not bass head. So you are warned. I use from my phone. Mate 9 pro. No issue. But to answer your questions about stage use or musician. I can say 95% who own iem not even both professional. We just love music, want to sound life like. But if you can demo them, it will be better. As they are not cheap. If you can find 2nd hand also is a good option in mind. Or find something cheaper, slowly go out. Cheers. Enjoy your music journey.
@@kaankucuk1612 get something else first like the raptgo hook x hbb, the fiio fh3 or the moondrop blessing 2 dusk imo. Coming from the airpods pro i imagine ur gonna wanna experiment a bit. Getting a good dac amp is key or a good dongledac too. Coming straight to iems i reccomend the hidizs s3 pro dongledac and the fiio fh3 iems and see the difference for yourself. Great for rock metal rap electronic
Emm yeah 64 audio universal!...abviously towards sumthin' different But u've the rite one in fact better then the 18..fourte..etc..Gd ears indeed..peace!
Thinking of buying this, but if I took them outside I'd only use them with a 250$ DAC Dongle, I wonder if it'd still be worth it since you mentioned that you appreciated it only after buying the expensive DAP?
itll still sound good, but true not worth the 2250$, its a great investment though
I'm torn between the A12t and Campfire Solaris.
My main interests are soundstage, transparency and layering. I want to look deep into the tracks I'm listening to. I know they both excell in those criteria, but which one has the magic factor?
A12t will be better for your preferences!

@@kaankucuk1612 airpod pros are very muddy sounding compared to my Shure se535's that I've been listening to for the last 10 years. I'm looking at these as an upgrade as well. So airpod to U12T will be a massive upgrade all around.
Hi I've heard AK makes the most analytical and technical sound signatures. So I'm wondering how much of an upgrade is your sp 2000 over the kann alpha you have used until now? And do you plan buying the new monarch mk2 also?
In my experience, the Kann Alpha and the SP2000T sound very clear, crisp, dynamics but wonderfully musical. I wouldn't say they are warm, but they are certainly not bright. I think certain DAPs like Shanling and Hiby have made warmer DAPs in the past, leading to the impression that A&K makes bright DAPs, which I don't think is the case. Not sure if I'll buy the MK2. Just got the EVO and considering getting a Trailliiii. :) :)
@@amplifyaudioreviews I am very interested about upcoming comparisons between those and the u12ts 👌
Nice, if you like u12t try EE Odin if you haven't, that was the reason why I sold my u12t
Yes, considering either getting the Odin or the Trailli. Maybe I should get both, lol.
I also directly compared Odin to u12t and purchased the Odin. But that's also because I did prefer that high mid-range lift, not everyone likes it as much.
There’s no BA timbre on it. If there is it means you aren’t used to the sound yet. Do you still like A8000 as much?
I do not understand - the U12t is considered to have one of the best BA bass but also it is considered to have greatest detail retrieval. The bass is not fully on par with the Z1R but the detail is more. In the beginning you make a hint that it is not too tiresome due to detail, later you say it is a detail monster. So, please, clarify. And, does it play well only with the new AK dap?
It is (a) detail monster (b) not tiresome due to detail because the overall presentation is relaxed (lower treble dip). It plays well with most sources. But the AK DAPs have a way of making veiled IEMs sound crisper and they also give a more authoritative bass, so I do think the U12t pairs well with the AK DAPs.
@@amplifyaudioreviews Thank you for the prompt reply.
Let me clarify a little, the most unpleasant frequencies for hearing are the lower HF, approximately 6-9 kHz. U12t has no failures there.
Which one is better Sony IER-Z1R or U12T?
@@kaankucuk1612 According to me, the Z1R may have only one issue - fit. Some people complain about the fit, me - not. The U12t has only one strength over the Z1R and that is detail retrieval. Z1R is very very good with detail retrieval but the U12t is a smidge better. But for all the rest Z1R is quite better - less cost for greater and premium accessories, greatest bass ever, airy presentation, biggest iem sound stage. Check reviews by others also - there are direct comparisons.
Where would u12t rank compared to other headphones?
Does u12t have more depth than headphones or no? I’ve heard some people say u12t positions vocals in front of you but not sure how true that is
Most headphones are left and right or the center is pulled/pushed in which sounds wrong and in your head
U12t has awesome depth mor than many headphones but vocals are presented at a distance from you
@@amplifyaudioreviews what about susvara / shang jr / 009s / 009 / 007 2.9 blu tac / 007 mk1 / x9000 if you don’t mind answering too lol
For depth and vocals like your reply
Also when is updated headphone ranking list
@@junseicpcp6903 Updated HP ranking hopefully by May, want to do justice to it, think through all the parameters etc. As for the HP you presented, for vocals, 009S > JR > X9K > 009 > MK1 > MK 2.9. But for depth, X9K is awesome.

@@junseicpcp6903 i really dont have to write anything if the list all displayed, all my opinions are there
Ahh! I see now why Mr. Mehfuz is not responding to my text 😆. I think its an excellent decision considering how much music you listen to.
Thanks man
@@amplifyaudioreviews review sennheiser ie 900, Empire ears odin, Elysian Anihilator, Noble audio Sultan, fir m5, Unique melody Indigo, Campfire Andromeda, Campfire Solaris, thieaudio monarch2 , ikko oh7 and moondrop illumination.
@@harnoorsingh2866 I do plan to get the Odin, IE900, a fe Elysian IEMs. Have already reviewed the Andro and the Monarch previously on this channel
@@amplifyaudioreviews I am talking about Monarch 2, it is much better than monarch 1. And can you do their sound demos?
@@harnoorsingh2866 Yeah, will try to get MK2 in..,
well with the Legend Evo I guess your kissing the u12t goodbye, funny how the u12t was the golden child for so long and now many people are actually saying it's good but unremarkable.
Yup. I would agree with that, Terry. Good but unremarkable.
