Looking for a hybrid IEM with a really rich tonality and decent micro-detail with nozzles that are not too short about $120-$160 max, if anyone has anything that they know off that is not v-shaped....L-shaped best ! .....no treble dominace, even recessed treble is fine...I can get fatigued with treble after a while.

If it were me, based on what you’re saying about recessed treble and treble fatigue etc I wouldn’t even be looking for a hybrid. I would be looking at single dynamics, which I think would give you the best shot at getting the signature you’re looking for.

Other option is to use EQ to cut the treble down, which is the ideal use of EQ (ie cut vs boost). Then you’ll be able to tailor the treble to exactly how you want it.

Thanks, I've owned quite a few of the sub-$150 hybrids already and one example being the LZa2 (no longer avail.) was just perfect...trying to get a balance of the micro-detail of BAs with the musical fullness/richness of a dynamic unit.
A better version on LZa2 (with mmcx for my balanced cable) is what I'm hunting...I just felt the LZ stuff progressed away from that sweet initial signature to a more purist/cooler tonailty tuning just as Audeze did with LCD-2 versions from "darker and rich/full" at the start.

Edit : HiFiMAN Supermini has not EQ unfortunately.
