SHE3580 vs Sony MH1C in terms of bass?

Pleeeease. If you value your ears and your mind DO NOT listen to those songs.
I repeat. DO NOT LISTEN TO THOSE SONGS.

Stick to Tribe and the like.

But of course if you're interested in hearing the absolute worst part of rap/hip-hop. Go ahead. Just don't say you weren't warned.

The sony is the way to go... unless fit means alot to you.

yeah, Sony Xb90EX maybe has the most amount of bass but that's not the main reason I like them - I actually dig the mids and the musicality which I have never heard with any other iem. I've already said it but the big bass actually helps with non-bassy music bass in jazz is well weighted and actually audible, as are the lowest of low registers on organs in classical pieces... If the new FX series have same sound and presentation, but more refined and detailed, then they will be the ultimate IEMs for me I guess people who own them here will agree that that XB90EX are not only about bass, but huge soundstage and presentation and sweet, smooth mids and laid back, but still detailed highs. 

 
I totally agree, they can be easily preferred over greats like the xba-3 in its smoothness. Sony deserves some props for their new efforts, was never a real fan of sony.
The adagios have been in the dark for a while, I thought they were taking the bass crown... would like to hear more

If your looking for something fresh from the usual "tribe and the like" (no offense to the golden oldies) try out Jay electronica's "my world(Nas tribute)", and "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind". Mr. Lif's "Madness in a cup" Immortal Techniques "Positive Balance"
And for something truly fun and interesting (super heroes vs. Mcees) Check out Last Emperor's "Secret Wars pt.1"

Anyone looking for more after these Feel free to PM me, other than that much love to those dedicated their time to enlighten the rest of us still scratching our heads over how to get a proper EQ LOL (Yes im newb)


P.S. If you get through all those songs and can't find one you like there's something wrong with your ears

Got to agree with that.     he should also check out most of most of living legends stuff and madvillain 

 
 
also dilated peoples, old bone thugs and jurrasic 5

Well,, I'll take the silence on the FXD80 quality issue to mean no one else has had any problems with them. Disappointed right side went out on me, did like these iem's

I was into EQ'ing my px100ii's and modded ksc75's. Actually, I needed to do that to get them sounding the way I wanted. But since I got the jvc ha-s500's, and more recently the sony xba3's, I have become a non-EQ convert (mainly because I don't feel they need it). I found this is especially helpful when switching from my clip-zip to you tube or soundcloud or tuniein radio on my phone (where you can't really EQ, at least as far as I am aware).
 
So, I was (am still am) quite happy becoming a "non-EQ" snob. But now I have been introduced to some of Joe Blogg's theories, so I'm just back to being confused!

Nah not current only have my customs (keeping) and pfe left (they are for sale to) and have 3x mh1 (plus one for the gf).
 
Op asked what i have had.  To much lol, some photos in my profile.

HAha yea same here man, I use winamp to listen to all my flac files. Only references I have with IEM's are the CC51's and the recently coveted MH1C's. Like you I came across Joe's posts on EQ's and such and got me curious. Been tweeking em here and there and while I can say with much confidence I'm new to all this, I am finding a favorable difference with the tuning of EQ. Once I get my head around it a bit more im sure I'll be more than pleased (not that Im not already) with what I'll drive these MH1C to.

Another fun sound to check out with these buds is FLYING LOTUS's Roberta flack in FLAC his album L.A. 1X3 is pretty solid all around unlike some of his other albums I've come to find which are sprinkled with SOME get up and go tracks

This doesn't seem to be a common issue for the FXD. Mines are going strong and still sound great. I did hear of one other person on the FXD thread that had one side cut out on him. For the most part I don't see these having issues. Sucks regardless. I try to take care of all my earphones but it happens.

I checked out the legends and the madvillain. Cool - thanks! I'll be sure to check out the others also.
 
Makes me realize that in addition to FLC, I have been listening to these quasi-hip-hop friggin' classics for a while
