If that's the case it should be a vocal iem, no? But, people still use vocal tips? Does it bring out the midrange more?
Does @Brooko have graphs with various tips?
I have heard real mids rise followed by dip in the upper mids and it's most weird for those responses.
It is rather complicated, because they aren't forward enough for the whole IEM to be vocal, just more forward than balanced or than neutral. I think FH5 is more versatile and universal than one might expect, those aren't a one-trick pony for me, they can do both metal and electronic, Jazz and even classical and be fun.
Etymotic is a good example of more extreme midrange-forwardness.
I only used the tips that they came with, and Spinfit tips. Different flavor or tips are different flavor of tips, of course some people will like very mid-centric signatures, there's always Etymotic as a living, and successful proof
I tend to test a IEM with the tips that come installed on it, to take notes on its sonic performance and tuning, seems most fair
