I am with Gordie on this one.
I just got my Hornet, and straight out of box, it already sounds great. I really do not notice forward sound. Maybe because I have own forward sounding headphone and canalphone. The only thing that I notice is that the bass is not as textured, but I pretty sure with burn in this will be changed.
Therefore, below is the common complains about the unburned-in Hornet from my point of view:
1) Compressed soundstage -- I do not observe this.
2) Piercing High -- Nope. High is fine to me.
3) Not textured bass -- Yes, bass is not as textured as I would like, but the impact is there, and I like it.
