The best thing to do is to play with the eq and find what fits the best your tastes.
Agreed.
I did this a lot with my Cowon S9, and then after a month of eq'ing and doing slight treble increases (like Bennyboy71), I eventually just turned off the EQ. I can now say that I am truly satisfied with the sound of my Cowon S9 +SM3.
If I am to do any EQing at all, I would look to eliminate the lower midrange bump first. That bump annoys the heck out of me.
It annoys me so much I am seriously considering finding a neutral IEM that has a wide soundstage, tight, controlled bass and smooth, non-shrill highs like the SM3. If there's such an IEM please let me know...
Your wish can be easily fulfilled. The JH13 is what you're looking for. You get a wider and deeper soundstage, better textured bass and impact, better instrument separation, no veil, no lower midrange bump, more present and extended treble, improved clarity and details, no more complex passages that sound congested, heavier earpieces but better fit and isolation (in contrast to shure olives and silicon as these are the only ones I tried), and lastly more dynamic.
