I just got the m6pro today, first impressions are really good. My daily iem is the Shure SE215. I also use often the Yamaha eph100 and the Sennheiser IE80.
Comparing to the Shure SE215: Tonal balance of the Shure is more on the Bass/Mids side, M6 pro is more Mid/Treble as result the sound is a bit thinner, also more open and detailed. The bass is not missing, it's there just not the same quantity. The mids are not recessed. I think they could have a bit more mid-bass for a fuller sound, but for the price I can't complain. They are a match for the se215 and maybe even better, for half the price. Sound signature wise they are a bit of a contrast, if you like the se215 and want a bit more highs and a leaner bass the m6pro are a must try.
My only fear before buying was about the highs, many peoples reported them like harsh, piercing, too bright. It's not the case. They are present but not overly bright. The right amount if you ask me.
Second, I hate recessed midrange. If vocals are buried in the mix or harsh it's a turn off for me. Again, It's not the case. Vocals are clear and the midrange is all there.
To my ears the sound signature is between neutral and mid-forward.
I will update my impressions after the burn-in!
