Interesting.  I'm the opposite; I'm curious whether I'd like the Basso more, but I'm liking the Tenore so much after burn-in.  I no longer find the bass lacking.

Hate to say it but... told ya!!

Well carbon fiber is essentially carbon weave and fibreglass epoxy, perhaps something lost in translation.

The dual ba has me very interested, no idea of a release date?

but I'm, not sure that is the case right now. anyways, we need someone with enough proficiency in Japanese to let us know for sure

Well, the chrome translation says something about brass aside from the carbon and aluminium but I can't understand whether is just the nozzles or what. I should ask my friend in Japan what it says exactly when he wakes up if no one has translated it by then.

Hey, I figure I'll include you in on what I've found that works for my set of ATH-CKN70s since you have the same issues that I did with them. For what it's worth, I find that the CKN70s highs smooth out and aren't artificial sounding when amped. It doesn't matter the type of amping as I've tried it with 2 SSs, a hybrid, and a tube (E17, Objective2, Aune T1, Darkvoice 336se) and it's a whole lot less distracting and smoother sounding. For the sibilant aspect, how sibilant they get depends on your amp. I find that it almost goes away altogether on neutral /neutral-warm amps like the E17 or Darkvoice. That does make it a little less portable.

Thanks, but I was specifically looking for IEMs that I could use with my phone, since I always have that with me and don't always have an amp with me.

Even tho I have my E17 with me most of the time in my messenger bag, it's not always in the chain so yeah, I totally agree. Especially when my player is my phone. Who wants to try to use your phone with a rubberband around it?? I find that it's not sooo bad with it at about 80-90% of my regular listening volume, so I deal with it that way when I'm on the go.

oh, that makes sense. so I basically misheard brass for glass. Japanized English words are sometimes kinda hard to distinguished
thanks for clarification.

I just watched the video and he pretty clearly says it's brass LOL You just need to watch more anime and hentai like me to improve your Japanese 

 

[Lifted Andreas]

Anyone remember these beauties??

 

[Huxley]

Yeah they're sibilant

 

[Lifted Andreas]

Yeah they're sibilant

Lol, well I've been reading the FXT90 thread and no one in there mentions that they are even close to sibilant
