IEM for a Masochist?
So, this is pretty embarrassing and strange but I will say it anyways. I love bright treble and high frequency sound. Even when I use bright headphones or earphones, such as AKG K812, Sony EX1000, or Hidition New Tears 6, I increase the treble with EQ. Crazy stuff, but it gets even more crazier...- Boffy
