I have M1 for a while and great support from Anson. Currently listening with the latest ultraman firmware. Will explore more before sharing my impressions.

Burgundy red, a very exquisite color! How aboutt the UM earphone match with the M1?

A burgundy red colour M1? 🤭

Still early days of exploring, I paired M1 with a few iems and all sound good so far. For iems I'm listening with ultraman firmware / iem mode.

And also play around with the timbre switch at the back.

When I had a chat with Anson he said not to use IEMs in Headphone Mode with Ultraman Firmware as it is designed to push as much current as possible. Just keep that in mind.

As a fan of pop, my setup is in direct mode. In fact, the low gain of the headphone mode is enough to drive most of my IEMs. I'm just waiting for my new toy.

Just got HD490 Pro. The sound is a little similar to HD580. I will compare them carefully over the weekend. This time the cable is XLR to 6.35, so I use the HD800's 6.35 to 3.5 cable to connect to Listening M1. The build quality of HD490P is good, with a plastic body and lightweight.
