Comment: Tested with both the stainless steel module and brass. V-shaped with decent technicalities Brass module has bass bloom, stainless steel module more balanced sounding; japanese design is really something else

64 Audio U12t reviewed by: Smirk Audio
Good resolution and dynamics with great imaging. Smooth, slightly recessed upper-mids with an upper treble peak.

TOTL tech. Mid-scoop can affect mids/vocal texture and placement, recessed midrange, treble is harsh at high volumes. Great bass detail, but could have more impact. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
64 Audio U12t reviewed by: Tim Tuned
Extremely versatile signature, great bass and details Potentially too safe tuning wise Tim Tuned Youtube Channel
64 Audio U12t reviewed by: Precogvision
Terrific dynamic range and soundstage depth; the closest I have heard to a two-channel system in an IEM for these qualities. Precogvision Youtube Channel
64 Audio U12t reviewed by: Jaytiss
Just Smooth and nice, great all arounder with smooth technicals, but too boring. Jaytiss Youtube Channel
64 Audio U12t reviewed by: Crin
