Hi guys,
i just bought a brand new ie800. they are amazing in high resolution trance and house progressive. What really stands out in this iem's is how the bass is fast and very clear and also the mids and highs. . Can someone that have the ie800 and the Atlas compare them both in this specific genre with high resolution files i am curious.
I have both, and for trance / prog house I think I'd go with Atlas, it has a thicker overall sound, but with also a crisp treble, makes better impact and thickness, everything sounds more lush and full. ATLAS is more like a fully grown headphone / speaker, where IE800 has its magic in how thin and splashy it sounds, if you prefer your music like this, then IE800 is quite great, while if you want even more detail better definition and a more natural sound, Atlas may prove to be an interesting upgrade (Ie800 is quuuuite old now, Atlas overtakes it in general resolution and detailing, at least with my typical music selection)
