Treble issues went when I changed the stock cable for the fiio cable . I think is the silver cable which make these iems a tad bright and thin so I recommend to purchase the removable cable version because I'm having no issues with them. Now I'm using the ibasso d14 with my phone and the fioo cable and Large mh1c tips, sound is amazing.
How are the treble/sibilance compared to the narrow bore stock tips (not white). Somehow, mine wasn't shipped with wide bore stock ones. I definitely cannot handle the treble without EQ with these stock tips. Too much tizz and hiss no matter what song is played.
I took off the tips and just put them in my ear without them and they are no where near sibilant. I expect the narrow bore stock tips are the cause of this.
Very weird though, the medium stock tips fit me better than small ones. Much better subbass extension and a bigger sense of soundstage. However, the small tips insert a little deeper without sealing quite well, so you get a more balanced sound due to less subbass, but a more congested sound without much air which kills the imaging.
These are just naturally so bright and bass heavy, slightly making it vshaped. It is really fatiguing to listen and it's impossible for me to listen without EQ even though I put on a tip with same size as nozzle all the way through. I think spiral dot is my last hope.

Sorry, but spiral dots are just a bit softer on highs. If they're fatiguing for You, dots won't change them enough.
They were to bright only for about 15-20 first hours. They're U shaped to me, but nothing like fatiguing.
Burned in for about 250 hours. 200 hours by previous owner, 50 hours by me. I listened all the way through and nothing changed, so I think if there was a phase, it's finished. Just tried bigger tips for a more shallower insertion and it works, but the problem is that they are sticking out too much. I've listened to a lot of bright headphones in the past, so I'm not crazy here, but I do seem to be a little treble sensitive.
Burn in playing music. I use the Drums and Breaks channel on Spotify. Twin and I are both treble sensitive and have no issues. He even says it can be fatiguing and I don't get that. Also, these don't need to be played at a loud volume. Just moderate, not sure how loud you have it for personal tastes
Are they good idea for classical music? I heard that they are better than FLC8s which have for me very natural and soft sound (only with gun blue filters). I wonder if their advantages will be good in classical music.

The SWIII are in a class by themselves. Either you like This much Definition or you don't. Truthfully, of all my IEMs I tend to listen to the Musicmaker TK12 the most because of their Bass presence softer definition and rolled off highs. They are in my personal extreme comfort zone. IMO, from the TK13 upwards, Musicmakers become more analytical. I also love "The IEM that shall not be named", although for me it borderlines being to bright. (I have been spoiled by my HD600's for a long time, but alas they are starting to go on the fritz so I may have to get a new pair of Cans as well.)
