Does anyone know if there are any iems like the final audio e5000 (sound wise) but with tighter, faster and cleaner bass? Doesn't have to be chifi either.

yeah, the urbanfun with snozy tips (those that have build in filters)

Isn't the urbanfun much brighter? I want something with similar warmth overall.

I've been looking for such lush mids with perhaps a bit less mid-bass and less overzealous sub-bass IEM for a while, but alas none so far have quite managed that feat. Final's mid-range tuning is unique indeed.

Yeah the overall bass quantity can definitely be lower. But I suspect that if the bass is tighter, faster and cleaner it will be fine with the quantity it has right now.

Maybe it just be easier if I tried to tighten the bass with a copper cable or something... Already using their type e tips so can't really improve with tips.

@Slater Right now I have the filters placed something like this, not big enough to cover it fully but should be good enough right? Or maybe I should overlap multiple filters?


I would buy a larger filter. The reason is because the filter has a ring of non-porous adhesive around the outside.

You can see this ring of adhesive in this photo:

Well, according to your illustration, that ring of adhesive is covering a significant portion of all 3 holes.

What you should do is measure the outside diameter of the nozzle, and order a filter of that size. Then there will be the maximum amount of flat nozzle resin that contacts the adhesive (so it won’t fall off), and it will be covering the minimum amount of the 3 bores.

Guess Im gonna buy the filters after this COVID-19 situation is under control since it isn't important. Since they are so cheap I will probably just buy one size of each.

remove the mid bass hump with EQ, you will be surprised
Don't really like to use eq, and even if the quantity is lower it is more the quality side i want to change (tightness and speed)

Are you located in the US? I’d be happy to drop a set in an envelope if you can tell me what size you need.
