Got same feeling but with my left ear. I'm could stay with cheap stuff an be happy now after upgraging I found out that my left ear is faulty :/

Have you tried adjusting the channel balance to compensate? I have the same issue with my right ear and it is how I deal with it.

This is something I said in another thread about some over ear headphones but I thought it worked just as well here. I changed a few things up so it applies to the DM6:

Have had my DM6 for a little over a week now. When first opened to see if I received the correct shell, I did listen to them for a short period. Right away noticed something was very wrong with the left earpiece’s sound. The guitar was tinny and the drums like being under water. Initially thought it could be a BA, but decided to put them in play for a while. After about 120hrs, and regularity listening throughout the past days, now they sound quite incredible. Best IEM I have so far.

I did spend about an hour with warm water, hydrogen peroxide and a q tip and let the peroxide side right against my ear drum for 10 mins and flushed with warm water, repeat 4x times. It made another little bit of difference I think. So yes, after changing my DAC L/R balance to -2.6db on the other side (to balance) I am back to enjoying the DM6 a lot.

A this point I have about 600 hours on my DM6. Had em since December of last year. The soundstage has opened up and the treble has settled actually a lot. More than I expected. Mids are fat and sassy. Low bass is nice, and sub bass is still right where it needs to be. I'm loving the hell out of these IEMs.

Canceled my Massdrop DM6's. Gonna wait for my Fiio MK2 Q1 and Tin T3's to come in on Tuesday. Burn them in, and see what I think my ears prefer. Was tired of trying to decide between them and Feerless models.

Have the T3, bought on a lark. Fun IEMs, but they are not even in the same state that the ballpark is in where the DM6s play...

got my es100 today, sounds amazing with the dm6 over balanced 2.5. APP is a little finicky

once you play in the Kanas or DM6 level of IEMs, it's hard (at least for me) to go back and listen/buy something in the price tier under them like the T3.

Yeah dm6 with es100 nice combo. Using it very often. Es100 is with softer treble with balanced tuning. Dm6 is revealing and with harsher nature so final sound is really good balance between analytical and musical. Also app equalizer is nice as usually i don't use it but there it is good implemented. Possibly there will be parametric version in the future Anway es100 for the price is the best way to make dm6 or other iem wireless and with best quality.

Yeah after dm6 and kanas any tin audio is going down very clearly. So even i have tin audio these two ruined everything

@Redcarmoose would like to hear your thoughts about the Kanas pro, please grab a pair if you get a chance. If you enjoyed the DM6 I'm sure you will love it

Hi! Wanted to ask have u tried the ES100 with videos? Does it have sound lag or delay when watching?

Lol!
I’m actually at a remote location now with no way to get stuff. I do have something new arriving at the end of May, but that’s it. Go back in Head-Fi and take note of those few folks who quit buying stuff in 2010. That’s where I will be in 9 more years. I’m not searching any longer, just getting into music. Basicly I don’t have any more wants or needs at the moment. I’ve been into audio since the early 1970s.

If I was pursuing a YouTube channel or doing reviews, I would get into the process; but I’m not. I could maybe sell gear, but? I like the stuff I have.
But, as we all know I could be found getting the Kanas Pros this Monday?

hey, haven't tried it specifically for video, but i will be able to check this today and give you answer to this.

No I know the T3's are lower quality, but I want to see how my hearing falls when it comes to IEMs. I already had them on order from Amazon.
