E6i + more bass = ??

[denisavu]

I am still trying to get used to the rolled-off highs, and slight veil of my E500! Anyway, what IEM would give me the sonic signature of the E6i with more bass?

Thanks.

I have never listened to ER6i's but the E4C has an excellent sound with nice bass.

i don't have very much experience with iem but my im716 does enough for me in the bass department.

It seems that IEM's generally lack a deep bass, and usually can only be mad eup with hardware. But you can certainly try.

try the er4b. the b means it has more bass.

























edit: ok just in case someone actually takes that seriously, it's a joke.

A common complaint levelled at the ER6i. I think the only way to rectify it is to spend more and get the ER4

I'm happy with my ER6i for what I need them for, I like the neutral sound where I can hear the bass plenty without having to feel it too.

I think the "ER6i with more bass" is the standard description of the Audio-technica CK7.

Hmmm... perhaps the new Shure SE310? Although I haven't get to try them myself yet, from the reviews I see, they better the E4s in most areas, and don't have the obvious treble rolloff that's obviously present in the E4s.

Shure? I'm looking for ultimate transparency. Maybe like K701 IEMs.

I find those a bit big to fit into my ears

Actually, I find my ER6 when used with an amp (PINT) to have adequate bass

Get a Xin amp then, and use the bass boost. Very good result.

yeah...just make sure you don't get a supermicro (it doesn't have a bass boost switch).

 

[denisavu]

Crap, I have one on order. I have the Hornet M, and as far as bass boost, I feel that my D2's eq and MachBass should take care of that. Again, I love the E6i for its transparency, but long for that bottom end.

The Xin bass boost works very well imo. I use it full time with my ER4P which sort of spoils me. I do find that the etys have good bass as is though. I also use ER6 which seem to have more bass ?? -could be my imagination.

For home use you could use an EQ...or this little gem:
