Really? Interesting since the foams supposedly make the treble even smoother. It's really nice to see such variety of sound preferences.
You know, back when i just had one pair of iems and before i got into headfi and into all this world of audio gear, i considered myself as a basshead, i really liked bass. And i figure it probably was because cheap and common earphones that you buy in any electronics store have nothing to offer besides bass (with some exceptions of course).
Then i tried some decent iems and started to like the upper mids...a lot! I still love my bass, but from that moment on, bass wasn't everything. There was more to enjoy, i listened to the same songs but it was different. I noticed so much that i didn't before.
Somehow i still couldn't enjoy treble, i mean, it had to be there but it had to be smooth. I tried, for example, the dn1k and i thought the treble was so harsh, i couldn't adjust, i had to take them of my ears.
So i concluded i'm treble sensitive, but does that mean i cannot enjoy it? I'm hoping to find the answer with these (and the sabres). With so many filters and tips maybe i can find a signature where sparkly treble exists and i become in love with itor maybe treble isn't just my cup of tea, who knows? Quite an adventure i'm oni'm loving the journey.
Either way, the beauty of the filters is that we can customize it, so i'm sure i'll enjoy it with or without sparkly treble.
About the spinfits, i never tried them but they seem interesting, i might give them a go
Hey, about the same path i took.
Started off wanting, looking for, and liking bass, i'm ashamed to say that i even tried.... I don't like to admit this... I tried... beats earphones
But i was lucky because Head-fi saved me... I found soundmagic e80's off the reviews here and that was my door into head fi and a more mids oriented preference. I love the soundstage it offers that the bassiness constricts.. Never experienced immersion like that before. Deprived lol
I actually only committed to mids/upper-mids once i heard the gold filters from these Delta V-II's. I'm excited for you to try these out.
I have experimented with the treble, too and can't make that jump either. Sometimes if the artist's music works with it.
But the clarity of these mids made me get the sabre's too and I think those are going to be something special.
