So the S4 tweaks the sound of the source file. It does not honestly portray the sound of the flacs. What a bummer!
An IEM sounding sibilant out of the box is really a bad IEM. I happen to read members saying that the S4 is sibilant out of the box but magic happens after burning from 100 - 200 hours. Is this an IEM to recommend?
So potential buyers, be careful of all the glowing praises for this IEM.

The X10 is a more accurate sounding headphone, while the S4 is tuned more to compensate for the degraded quality sound of compressed files. |
