Headphoneus Supremus
I know nobody hunts mules, so I think I'm safe to say this:
Let the Westone 3 rest in your ear, don't even make a real effort to push it in your ear canal.
Geez, the first few hours of having them, I kept trying to shove them into my ears, and it always sounded like utter crap.
Now, the bass is still strong but doesn't sound extremely blanketed, and the treble is more Grado-like, and the mids are not like a few hours ago; muffled and SA6-like (aka "out of tune").
I will admit that the bass still likes to be punchy and rather prominent, but now it rarely wants to wash over the whole spectrum like it used to.
This is why I hate (universal) IEMs; fit and distance to the ear are up to you to figure out, and even then, it still may not work out for you.
