Basically i've only got 2 earphones, Sony Z1 stock earphones and this KC06A that i got it from Willy recently.

It's my very first Hi-Fi IEM, so I don't have much experience or skills to listen, below is my vague feedback towards this IEM after using for around 5 days by playing FLAC files via both my computer and my phone.

1. Noise isolation on KC06A is quite weak, i can still listen to my fan spinning after i put it on, but when the music is played, it's basically muffled up the surrounding sound.

2. Compared to sony stock earphone I got, KC06A is much more clarity and better separation than that Sony's but then the Sony somehow have more "oomph" than KC06A.

3. Once again compared with my stock earbuds, the bass is very muddy; where else the KC06A have much more detailed low frequency bass.

4. It doesn't really satisfy my needs on warm tone.

5. Don't know whether is it my ear's shape, It starts to get a little discomfort when wearing for around 30 mins.

This IEM basically satisfy as my very first IEM but then it actually disappointed me a little on certain details.

*I do not have any DAC or AMP in my setup.

2. Just wondering, do application of Amp able to boost the mid-bass?

4. Never tried SE215 before so yeah....

5. Straight down, the aluminium body somehow poke somewhere near to my ear canal, have to readjust position sometimes after wearing it.

No idea how to do the EQ; more like didn't dare to touch it

Did asked Willy about the amplification, she did recommend me to get a better DAC or DAC+AMP combo rather for me to get a standalone amp (i dont have a DAC , i was tempting to get a E06 to drive it though) , after the recent purchase of this IEM, I don't think I can buy anything that price range for now , for now DAC costs a lot to me. Summer holiday's ending soon, no more part time for me for now :/

I did tried wear it over the ears, It felt weird for me so i swap it back to straight down

If I get standalone DAC drive like UD110, isn't that I still need a standalone amp to drive it? Or do I not need to?

Will try to toy the EQ later .

I'm too poor/early to enter the world of audiophiles

*And it seems like UD110 is completely out of stock

which means after i get myself a UD110v2 (Less likely to get one due to stock) or UD120, there's no means for me to get an amp right?

And through the review of UD series, i saw that they said about you couldn't control the volume unless you reduced it to 16bit (?) i'm confused with this 1

is UD120 have the same volume control capability? and what will happened if i didnt use amp?

Probably for now i will get myself a UD120 and borrow amp from my friend.

double amping would make the situation worst right?

If i have the chance

Hooked up my KC06a with a E07k, everything sounded more towards my preferences a bit (warm + dark). Very satisfied with the current setup

I was going to buy UD120, but no amp so might as well for E07k

That's exactly what I want when i hook it up
