Prefer the vsd2s sound over the an16. The an16's mids sound recessed compared to the vsd2s.

I still prefer the AN16, especially after the mod. I think it's only missing a small amount of bass depth from the GR07, and I Find the smoother treble too be far more pleasing. The GR06 has a very balanced tuning (less v-shaped than the 07), and the AN16 has the same tuning. The mids are very forward on this headphone, modded or not. If they aren't, you've got a problem with your tips, your fitting, your equalizer, or your pair is defective.
I think the VSD2 is way too harsh to be musical, though I do use it a good bit for watching Netflix.

+1 AN16 just sounds too smooth and relaxed for my general listening practices with a bit of roll off at either end. Nice for lying in bed and reading though.
+1 on the mids on AN16, they're among the best mids presentation I've ever heard and certainly not recessed. Unfortunately the highs and lows keep the same quality (I find both to be rolled off) but still a very nice iem.
I'm pretty sure it's the person ans not the IEM's that's different.
Spending some time in here you realize that there's haters and lovers for everything.
In the combination of music genres, ear shape, source matching and personal preference there's a lot of variables that can cause different result.

Plus many numbers (cause +1 is overused)
Everyone definitely hears things differently
There's no doubt about that. There are a couple of iems that get a lot of love around here that I think are pretty terrible. (I'm looking at you MEE Audio.)
Is it just me or do the AN16s have no sub-bass at all. The mid bass seems very heavy and boomy, albeit I did open the rear port. Everything else sounds great but that chunky midbass kind of ruins these great iems, imo.
