My new Mentawaï are clearly growing in me! Special version:
- treble tweak as for others
- new filtering design as mentioned by @ian91
- BA transducer for low-end
Everything is more consistent and precise. It sounds now like a unison, bass and other frequencies are way more integrated in comparison with the first iteration of Mentawaï I received.
I would also like to precise I ever preferred BA bass than DD one, that's why I asked for this special version

I've owned so many IEM... but each minute spent with these Mentawaï is a demonstration of what is a perfect all-rounder for me. It handles every genres (from old crappy dub to excellent jazz records, I didn't listen to classical music though) and has a so well balanced bass quantity and attack. Bass monster when calls for it. Bass guitar is just wow. How can an IEM rumble like that?
Mids resolution is the best I've ever heard, I hear every details and can understand every words. On so many tracks I thought that was the mastering, actually that was my previous IEM which were unable to reproduce that!
I don't want to describe the trebles, I'll let other guys to talks about that crazy extension and timbre.

This. The bass reminds me of full-size headphones in its power and atmosphere.

The treble is the probably the most noticeable improvement. It has gobs of detail.
