I think part of the likely issue, without sounding too self-deprecating, is that I don't have a well-trained enough ear to appreciate what I'm hearing. I only know from listening to my collection what sounds right to me and what sounds off. With the evo, anything bassy, live performances, or lower end sounds not just good, but great, visceral even--but orchestra stuff, film scores, etc sound off because there's simply not enough high end there, and that's likely because the electrostatic drivers don't exist on the evo. With the Odyssey, bassy stuff sounds good--it's there, it's accurate, but it's not visceral. Orchestral stuff doesn't just sound good, it sounds really good, it sounds pitch accurate, and so does acoustic stuff in general. The question becomes whether the trade off is worth it to you. My ideal IEM is the Odyssey with the bass, specifically the bone conduction, cranked to the level of the evo, and I'm struggling to approximate that on EQ without instead just artificially cranking up the dynamic driver bass instead. That's a very particular thing to me, and not at all the general listening experience I imagine. It's certainly not an issue if you like stuff to be accurate but musical.
I prefer the CP360 over the CP155. Although the CP360 is a little challenge to get them onto the Odyssey, it finally gives me a much better seal and more comfortable fit compared to the CP155 - and especially over the stock Final E tips.
