- it's a nice box
- moderate size, moderate weight, even on smallest tip I still have a bit of trouble keeping it in my ears
- can't wear it over ear
- detachable cable, feels like good quality, but slightly microphonic from jiggling the earpiece, not much from friction
- upgraded cable: more flexible, softer, even less microphonic from friction, chin slider is nice addition
- nice semi-hard case, simple and functional
- good selection of silicon tips (single and double flange) and a foam, ten in total
- very strong bass emphasis, very deep reach and rumble, not the cleanest, kinda mushy, too much on bass heavy songs which come to the front and drown the mids
- feels like there's an additional boost way down in the lowest octave? like there's a bit of a dip just before the subbass hits?
- the hits/impact feel right, but then it feels drawn out longer than it should
- “lazy” feeling
- mids drop, feel recessed; that area is reasonably even though, so it only feels recessed in bass heavy songs
- mids are overall meh, I feel like there's something fuzzy here but can't really hear it over the bass
- treble comes in weak but peaks a bit
over time, get a pressure buildup in my ears
- fatiguing
- feels “heavy”
- can't listen very long, gets increasingly congested
- something is wrong here, the longer I listen, the more distorted it sounds
- after a few days, all I hear is the distortion now and it hurts my ears after a few seconds
- going back to other cans is like breathing a sigh of relief
soundstage - above my head? that's odd
feels like a blah $100 IEM to me (I have no idea what the price is), but then in this range I'd probably reach for a Shure SE215
the fit and sound signature didn't grok with me at all
fat and lazy, with a black striped copper cord... this is Garfield isn't it?
