So far, I’ve been using these with my Focal Utopia & Sennheiser HD800 Headphones, and especially with my Meze Rai Penta IEMs. Everything about this little box and its app are first rate: 5s across the board.
Except for ease of Bluetooth connection, which can be a bit troublesome and time consuming. Sometimes it connects quickly, but lately I’ve had to “Forget Device” and re-pair.
There’s really no excuse for this. I’ve tried five different Bluetooth earbuds (M&D MW08s, B&W PI7, B&O EQ, Sony WF-1000M4x, and a cheap TOZO), and all of them connect to my iPhone 11Pro Max almost instantly, with no problems whatsoever.
However, all else is fantastic. I’ll only elaborate here on the buttons, since they have been disparaged in other reviews.
The buttons are truly fantastic. They operate precisely every time. The volume goes up or down in 1/2 DB increments with each push, no matter how fast you push the buttons. This is incredibly helpful in reducing the volume to a likable but harmless level. Further, you can have them light up while you’re using the unit, and you can even set their brightness level to between 1 and 10. I find them a joy to use.
