It seems to have a different nozzle metal dust cover though. The S12 Pro seems to have the small holes in an oval kind of shape compared to the OGs which are smaller and round. Had the S12, broke one side in a modding incident and now my S12 Pro is on the way...

Hi man. I am proud of how far you are goong with your channel. Long date fan! For details I have the Voyager 14 ( your rec of last century but still loving it) and fir treble I also like the piezos from BqYz ( like the Summer and thinking about the Topa for $60) . So, why I would add this to my collection?. By the way one of my favourite now is the Xenns Up ( your recnof course)but I have the chance to buy a cheap used Mest...do you think I will like Mest as it is more neutral and not as punchy as the Xenns? Tks and Mahalo

It's a tinny pile of shit with a hydrogen bomb treble straight from the box, with no sound body and you find yourself around the block from the recording studio with vague treble music wafting by. Even with max bass and near zero treble on the EQ the ICBM treble still blasts over the technical's,which otherwise would be impressive, but it has no sound body. Did I mention the slight treble issue? All this through a powerful Dac/amp. Unless it drastically improves on burn in I'm flushing the S12 pro down the toilet. Why won't you people tell the truth?
