There are nuances I hear on the Sleek, even the SA6, that are very difficult to pick out on the UE11. The UE11 is fantastic for certain things, and possibly unbeatable in areas, but aren't the be all end all many make it out to be by any stretch.
Even though its only your assessment based on your taste/ears/personal perception etc, its great to see you being honest and open and impartial in your reasoning/judgement/forming of opinion, not biased by prestige or pricing or reputation for eg. I appreciate and highly respect that. You've obviously spent a lot of money on IEM's, both universals and customs, and have much comparative experience so I trust your views. I think like this also so I can very much imagine your findings to be true.
