So the BASS there’s a lot…a lot of it. If I had to describe it in a physical standing structure. It’s a wall af bass that is equivalent to the Great Ice Wall in Game of Thrones. While the midrange being a grand passage through and the details being the tiny Crows standing guard.
I have reached my journey of a bassy set. The bass is standing the boundaries of muddy bass. However it’s staying in the boundaries as a faithful guard dog not venturing beyond the property line.
I have found the bass to be unnatural, when applied to most music. Genres I have found most suited is Rap, EDM m, Some Techno, Male K-Pop & 90’s to Modern Metal. Details are far..far in the background and will bother some that know their music tracks well.
The separation is moderate and imaging is just okay maybe good at the best, depending on music. This is certainly a niche tuning of an IEM and will likely not a daily driver.
I don’t regret this being in my collection and Iove booming my friend’s heads with it. No one yet has said they hate it…..just WHOA & WOW.!!!
There is some driver flex at times, but that only occurs when inserting not wearing. I have the basic cable, but would recommend a high output source. So I applied a balanced 4.4 and have best results with a minimum of 200mw.
Wide bore tips have been best to squeeze out as much detail as can be found. TRI Clarion, Divinus Velvet Wide Bores and Moondrop Spring tips achieved this.
I recommend for the collectors and the brave. Reference folks not so much though.
