Did you remove the screens from the nozzles?

No, I left the screens just where they were.

These 3 sound outlet port nozzle type iems have a shallow insertion, and has a bit of dependency on ear tips and fit, more so than those narrow nozzles from Shure, etc.. They just seem more sensitive to tip type and fit.I think you are right. If the fit is really bad then not only is there no sense of space, but also the bass response is awful. With the supplied tips I could get a reasonable seal with their medium foam tips. All the others were pretty awful. With the Complys the balance of sound across frequencies seems better than I got with the supplied medium foams, and the sense of spatial separation is fantastic. I don't really have the experience of instruments being outside my head to the side which I do sometimes get with Audeze EL8s (open back version).
no, spiral dots made from very different materialWhat I meant was that taking the foam out of the symbios apparantly make them sound similar to the spiral dots.
Unfortunately not from my experience. I guess I have more practical experience with a variety of IEMs than many (one of the good .... or bad .... points of a lot of reviewing ).I don't find sound stage limited at all, it's more spacious than the typical. This sound stage depends on the right tips and fit in my experience (which is quite important to get most out of the iem). I think if the fit isn't right, you can get this narrow stage, or if the bore size is narrow, I have experienced a tunneling like sound response.
What I have experience is, if the bore is too large, the stage sound unambianced (sounding all over the place). If the bore size seems precise or about right, the stage seems at the right size radially all around. Or perhaps a sweet spot of sorts.
somebody knows iem's with same frequency responses? Like it very muchThe reason it’s intimate (or small) for me is the mid range / vocal bump. It brings the singer forward.

Yes, I like jazz, with female vocals . Want to buy "same same but different" another IEMIt may also vary depending on what you listen to (a lot of my music can be guitar based, or female vocalists) which can tend to accentuate 800Hz -3 kHz which makes the freq bump more present. Others may find instrumental based music has wider perceived stage. When I test I use a binaural track (Tundra) and it shows quite clearly perceived stage width and depth - which is why I use it.
I did notice that the nozzles are shorter than a lot of IEMs I've had. That said, the out-of-box fit with these have been perfect for me! I haven't tried the other supplied tips yet.These 3 sound outlet port nozzle type iems have a shallow insertion, and has a bit of dependency on ear tips and fit, more so than those narrow nozzles from Shure, etc..

I swear the Symbo tips reacts like a bass reflex. Bass just seems more compressed (in a decay sense, not dynamically) and impactful.
535 = Dumpstered.Few words of comparision to Shure SE535?
