85% Apple lossless / 10% AAC@320 / 5% mp3@320 ⇒ iPod Classic 160 Gb ⇒ SA6 w/bass + and treble +
Over the ear while on the move - down when at home
Some other day I'll write in the Sleek-thread and let you know just how awesome this setup is...

HD650 has powerful bass, and its tight through a good amp especially balanced. The only thing possibly missing is some extra slam. Doesn't compare as well to the PS1 bass though, I still want to try out a JVC DX1000. I think I should revise that to say ++base =treble.
In IEMS, I surely have some bass++ with the UE11.

Nooo, I think the question was how you got a Bass ++ port, when there is no such thing (yet).

Bass +
Treble ++
Cable over the ear
Medium Tips... Tho I could go for something in between the small and mediums it seems..
I listen mainly to anything "electronica" (Trance, Psy(Trance, Chedelic, Prog, Dub), IDM, Chillout, you name it..  )
These days, I listen to the SA6 thru a first gen shuffle plugged into a HeadRoom Total Airhead Amp. From time to time I will also listen thru a Echo Audio Indigo I/O PCMCIA soundcard from my laptop.
Love them, Jason

Bass +
Treble ++
Shure Olives
Tried the supplied tips from Sleek but those Olives really improve the soundstage and presence, particularly when listening to small jazz trios and the bass in the group shines
using with 5.5gImod, Portaphile and portable v-cap

Bass +
Treble + (mostly for my inability to remove them)
Medium tips.
Coming up from my Creative Zen Aurvana, the two thing that struck me were the isolation, and the bass! I love bass in metal and rock music, and listening to the first Black Sabbath album, I just couldn't believe how much I was missing with my old earphones. It made me forget, for an instant, the $80 bill I just received from FedEx ($30 in taxes, the rest in handling!, f***ing thieves).
Really can't wait for the treble tip removal instrument.

USPS seems to be better on this, I paid 64$ only
As for the treble tips, try to twist them a bit while pulling on them, if you haven't tried that yet, works fine here that way
