Hi,
I am a bass-head. I crave for good bass and am sure there are many out there who just cant get enough of bass(be it the bass punch or the extension or texture)

Which is the best deep-bass IEM to buy among Fs Atrio M5 and Denon AH-C751?

I read few threads that did not bring out a winner among these two phones. Lets have a comparison biased towards bass.

I don't mind if the highs/treble of a phone are a bit smooth/recessed.
I actually do not like fatiguing treble at all.

As someone rightly observed, we cant make an otherwise tinny treble earphone pump out BASS. Even with EQ(try the stock earphones that came with Cowon D2 and you will know how tinny a earphone can sound)
We can make a good bass ear phone produce descent highs by tweaking EQ.

Lets get the discussion bring out the winner among these phones as more and more bass loving audiophiles seem to have shortlisted these two earphones for their deep extreme bass.

These are the major parameters for comparison(please let me know if other bass parameters need to be included to this list)

+Bass Impact or Bass Response
+Warmth
+Bass Extension
+Soundstage
-Boominess and its cousin Muddiness (Less is good)
-Hiss (Less is good. I read somewhere that this is inversely proportional to the impedance!)

Cheers
