Agreed. IMO if musics don’t have subbass and bass especially defined ones they will be tasteless and bored...:smirk:

This is why my hd800s almost got tossed out of the window near highway 95 ;p

They lack on bass and to bright.

I got a custom 15' AudioArts from San Diego, CA. He does whatever connector you want and his cables sound as good as all the top ones I tried from other brands. I forget what I paid, but it was half of what most charged. The guy who puts them together for him was head of production at AudioQuest for years. They are top rate cables for sure.

Reading your stories about zeus and all that I still love my phantom. Zeus cant do what phantom would with bass :wink:
It really can't and I do love the bass on the Phantom like I said. But I have 1 artist in my collection that qualifies as Rock and everything just doesnt need that emphasis on bass.

LOL Im not sure, too much bass will make it migraine inducing.

Oh, so thats why I saw a pair of HD800s flying out of that truck :p immediately set it on fire one I saw what they were.

I find excessive midbass fatiguing and wonder if manufacturers tune IEMs in such a manner to mask a lack of sub bass.

Its funny because I ask my self same question how you listen to music without bass?
Phantom never had overbass its playing whats in the recordings or your pairing it with something that emphasise bass to much?
Also phantom dont make more bass if its not there so it be dead in bass :)
It is warmer side of the thing and thats like a question of taste maybe.
I also found phantom to be good with soundstage maybe 60% of the hd800s.

I am glad you have set it on fire lol. No way to let that thing to survive, good team work @KuroKitsu

What tips do you guys like w/ the Phantom?

Custom lol

But when I had universal I used comply foam sealed better against noise.
Believe it or not but I had the ruber tips I could hear my engine whistle and with comply no whistle lol.
