Pinky I still want to say they are not a bass heavy IEM by any stretch, but with proper tips and seal and a non bright cable the bass is really good. The bass layers are all there and the quality is great, it is fair to say quality over quantity. I found out this is one of the few times I use a smaller size Final Audio tip, I usually use large, and it improves quantity a tiny bit as well. It just comes down to signature. I think I have said this so many times, none of these TOTL IEM's suck, it comes down to what signature works for you. That said I could understand how the signature might not be for some because it isn't a warm, sexy sound.
I agree it's all about signature. Either you love it or you don't, but no question Zeus is top quality.
I don't agree "the bass layers are all there." Sub-bass seems to be missing almost entirely. Maybe just the beginning of sub-bass is there, but it rolls off pretty fast after that. So I can't even say "Well, at least it's well-extended." Even the very neutral Spartan has deeper lows, which is an IEM I love a lot.
Zeus is great, and a lot of people's favorite. But it's not for me. Which is perfectly fine. tia Fourté, with its bright treble, isn't for everyone either. And my dear old U12 CERTAINLY wasn't for everyone.
