I took the plunge and ordered Enigma. I hope that I will like it
I never thought I will buy an IEM that expensive from IMR after Avalon, BC2023, EDP Ace, Aten, Ozar and RAH

I think you will enjoy the Enigma very much !
It can be tuned wonderfully with filters / tips / Cables. Makes it more fun !

Personally I've never found an IMR iem to be sibilant, which is one of the reasons I like them. Maybe those who have an issue have young ears?

Elan+ had some slight sibilance early on for me, but that was from the BAs, which have settled in nicely.

Don't perceive no sibilance on my Enigma+ - on the contrary, it has a very relaxed timbre to my ears...

I think more to do with. Cables and tips in my case.
Switching to hybrid cable introduced sibilance.

I've noticed also that IMR sets are quite sensitive to cable change. Use the stock PRO cable for more objective judgements on sound. Though I don't have mine on that due to its terrible ergonomics.

Hi guys, does anyone hear from Bob after a new year? I want to repair my halcyons, but no one responds to my emails. I’m curious if IMR is still operating, or it’s gone.

Tips make a lot of difference, have you tried Dunu S&S?

These look very idiosyncratic. Don't like how they look cylindrical like that.

The Dunu S&S tips look crazy, but they are actually extremely comfortable and create a great seal. The shape is not an issue because of how compliant the silicone is. My go to tip on most IEMs.

Interesting. The Large size are quite a bit smaller (11.5mm) than most L I use (14mm). But maybe they work differently?

I went XL on the S&S tips because of that same thing.

Oh didn't realize there was an XL. Thanks.

Large are larger than other tips, not sure they'd cover 14mm though. Being cylindrical they do go in further giving a good seal as @OldDude04 says.
