Dammit, just checked the retail price of IM-02s here in our country and was surprised that it's priced at ~$350 USD. For reference, the Aurisonics Rockets and Kicker are locally priced at US $260, B2 at US $140, RE-600 at US $230 and RE-400 at US $95. It seems AT sets are steeply priced here.
At $350, I might as well get a Sony XBA-A3 a Dunu DN-2000 (though they are more of "fun" sounding). Would you agree?
That is quite steep. IM02 and DN-2000 are not exactly competitors due to different sound tuning, but either way I'd have trouble putting up $350 for the IM02 when the B2 is available at $140. Prices are very different in the US.
Has anyone used the x11i? Are they good with bass?
They just sounded like an X10 (which has plenty of bass for a BA) to me. No changes to the tuning as far as I know.
do you think the im-02 is slightly coloured with female vocals sound better. male voices sound younger and some of its details gets smoothed over. or it may be just my unit not burned in?
I don't know how to put it in terms of vocal "age" but the IM02 is a little darker compared to more conventional analytical IEMs like an Ety ER4 or a Brainwavz B2.
