I will be posting my review of the Summer soon, meanwhile if you have it, take a listen to this: Mark Isham, " Many Chinas" Soundstage detail, and imaging, very impressive.
For the love of Mark Isham... I'm particularly in love with his Blue Sun album, all tracks are excellent...., It is Mark in his cool jazz territory
I always use "Barcelona" track, sometimes "Trapeze", to test treble, cymbals, hi-hat etc. and of course trumpet....

That's interesting. Some online reviews suggest that the stock grey tips are preferable for the bass and the white /blue ones are not as good. I found the opposite to be the case, we all have different sources, cables and ears!
I received the Summer recently, and I also have to take the contrarian opinion that the white/blue “atmosphere” tips are superior. The black “balanced” tips don’t yield a very cohesive sound, the mids sound hollow and the mid bass is pretty elevated compared to the sub bass, whereas with the white/blue tips everything is more balanced and the mids are fuller. I also find the white/blue tips more comfortable and with them it is easier to get a good fit.

The Kinera BD005 Pro is probably a reshell of the Shozy Form 1.1, and a sonically inferior one at that. While on the milder side of V-shaped, it has an uneven, peaky midrange, plastic timbre, and a compressed soundstage. It is extremely comfortable, but that's about all it has going for it. I'd recommend opting for its older, more expensive brother, which I believe is on sale right now for about $66.
