The idea of one product being better gets a bit foolish at this audio level. On a low end level there are always blatant flaws or limitations, things that absolutely one product better than another. Once you start getting into the $150 plus range, it starts to really become an issue of better fit to a particular individual rather than absolutely better.
@Currawong,
Thanks
@mickcenary,
I hope you mean the DDM-1. Since I no longer have it, I'll have to go by my few listening impressions I wrote back in the day.
I think the difference in bass quantity would be easily noticeable - certainly to a jarring extent in this case. Another aspect you would lose would be the sound stage width. I found DDM-1 to have more of an "open" sound stage, whereas GR07, while good may not have as much width (or even depth?). With treble, GR07 should be a lot more forward and would carry more sparkle. DDM-1 had an unique blended presentation, which required a bit of adjustment, but GR07's presentation is more normal.
Coming to sibilance, it would be noticeable, but not alarming (like Hippo VB). For casual listening sessions, it should not be that much of an issue (unless you listen at louder volumes). As I have mentioned a couple of times in the review, GR07 does not do anything 'special' to divert your attention. CK10 is a little more transparent and 'rough' if you will, at times. But, I get easily lost in it's presentation, the way it does treble, the placement etc., With GR07, it's more of an annoyance, because it is the only thing that sticks out a little and makes me think "If only this has been completely tamed, it would be perfect". Overall, a minor annoyance, which would be noticeable with sibilant recordings, but not enough to make GR07 a lesser IEM than it deserves to be.
