Hi all,
This is my first post, and I couldn't quite find an appropriate place to post this question, so I made a thread. Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules.
The IEMs mentioned in the title are the best I've ever heard. The smooth overall frequency response, not overpowering but qualitative bass, slightly but not too much recessed mids, and well extended, somewhat bright and sparkly treble, man, these just sound amazing. I prefer them over Storm, Mests, Trifectas, and what have you not. I can even now hear much of their greatness even with auto-EQ through my U12t.
Unfortunately, the Europa is not vented, which likely makes it unusable for me. It's also ever so slightly too forward in the mids in my opinion.
The CP74e is simply too expensive, I could buy it but I'd have to wait until it's on the secondhand market, that's how I got my U12t for cheap as well. If I were to nitpick about the CP74e I'd also say it sounds just a tad too warm and too recessed in the mids.
The Jupiter, on the other hand, just has too much bass. However, when I auto-EQ my U12t to them only above 200hz, it sounds just perfect. I could just buy the Jupiter and EQ the bass down, which is the option I'm considering the most now, but ideally I'd like to avoid EQ as I use IEMs on multiple devices. The rest of the frequency response of the Jupiter is bliss to me, no complaints whatsoever.
So, basically I'm looking for other IEMs that graph similarly. My most important requirement, I think, is a well extended but smooth treble. Uneven treble like that on my U12t and many, many other IEMs doesn't quite do it for me. Elysian Pilgrim graphs and sounds very similar (been using them for a month now), but unfortunately they don't sound quite as technical and vivid as the above mentioned options. Supernova sounds similar as well but I just found them too boring.
Any suggestions or comments are much appreciated.
Have a great day!
