But when it comes to listening to my hip hop/R&B/soul/EDM/pop music collection, then the E80 kinda let me down, as do the. Doppio or any BA phones, so this is where the FX850 and A73 shine! This is when I need that beef!

Thank! Maybe I'm spoiled with the CKR line in micro details, to my ears they're certainly a step up from the E80's. Or maybe we just here them differently

No, the CKR's are great. A tad too much bass for me, but it seems many of you are bass head audiophiles lol I've weaned myself off bass, or let me be more accurate...MID bass.

Maybe CKR10 but certainly not CKR9 which is more balanced. As a matter of fact, since you like A73 it has more bass than ckr9. Tip selection plays an important factor with these as well, with a narrow bore opening you will increase bass impact and will attenuate highs. That why I only use spiral dots with ckr10.

Now, if you want a doze of healthy bass, go for AD01 I would position it somewhere in between of A71 and A73.

  Got those EarMax 610 today 

 Compared to DGS100 and KZ ED9, ER610 are crap. No bass, uncomfortable highs, sound is thud and like from pipe. 

 
Did you try tip rolling or used only the stock tips?

Stock and KZ default tips, 610 has small tubing diameter (~2 times smaller than ED10), i don't have such eartips. Even foam is too large.

Whoa... CKR9 are too bassy? That's a new one on me. Like Twister said, you might be thinking of the CKR10.

I think you're thinking bassy vs really bassy. The CKR9 is NOT bass light in any way. Like the FX750 is lighter in bass than the FX850, but by experience, the FX750 is NOT bass light either. It's a bassy phone, just less bassy than the 850. The CKR9 isn't a bass cannon, and that I'll agree on, but it is a bassy phone, just like I think the A73 is bassy, but several folks don't find it bassy. Diff'rent ears for Diff'rent peers.

And for reference, the Tenore and Duoza are both not bassy phones. Both are bass light to my ears, as is the E80 in many ways. Just a reference point.

Sorry man. Big disappointment for me too. They sound like a bag of ass.

But in this lies the big question the universe has yet to answer...

If a bag of ass falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it make a noise?

Deep thoughts...

Mine turned up today but lucky I was out so I will have to go to the post office to collect them, I don't think I will bother

Anyone tried these? Search came up with nadda. Found em while hunting for some JVC stuff.

Edit: EX20 uses dual drivers, Knowles;

Edit 2: There's a lot of neat stuff on that site actually. Too bad I don't speak Japanese.

  Those tips are gold! Their material is much softer compared to Comply S series tips that I have. I was wondering where I could get more of these. Got a pair with my B3 and they are a perfect match for my Tenore.
I'm not really sure about function of the side holes. I was wondering about the same since some time. 

 
these are not really "new" havi tips. they actually come when you purchase the Havi B3 as a package.

They really are great. I only had two pairs and I managed to kill both of them somehow. I got in touch with Penon about getting more and next thing I know, they listed it on the site. They are easier to use than comply tips, in my experience because you can just insert them without sueezing the foam and still get  good seal.
