Totally agree with everything you said. The secret, for me, to get the best out of these Philips has been to use the rockbox firmware on my sansa clip along with the comply's T500 tips. Burning them in for around 30 hours and tweaking the sound using the rockbox settings has tamed the peakiness of the treble and allowed me to get a pretty damn impressive sound out of something that cost $9. The bass and sub-bass coming out of these are shockingly good especially with the comply tips. I've got a pretty good collection of headgear, but I'm at my happiest when I find something inexpensive that punches above its weight and to me, that's what these Philips do. Nice review, thanks!

thanks for taking the time to read it! i actually forgot to post a video review on these guys, i'm gonna do it now! (i had to condense it down, or it'll go on forever!) in terms of the complys i was heard good things about their pairing with the she3590s, but i was hesitant because my last set of complys (3 set with the wax guard) lasted me only 3,4,3 months, and it seems a bit outrageous to paying $21 or so every year for a 16$ iem (yea up here in canada we get ripped off on earphones). i'm still sticking with the stock silicones, the sony hybrids are a good alternative (but i felt it made the bass a bit boomier and did tame the treble but it made it less exciting (although less fatigue)
