To be honest the IE600 have some significant tuning deficiencies - they’re quite U shaped and I dislike flavoured headphones (want them as neutral as possible with focus on technicalities). The brightness and bass boost is too much for such an expensive IEM.I've been toying with buying some IE600
The ie200 is much better tuned (and offers some adjustment in bass too) but it too has excessive 12khz + boost and requires a cut of about -6db on the top + comply tips. Do this and it’s surprisingly technical and neutral IEM - almost studio monitor like which is excellent.
Use this tuning.
Alternatively JVC FDX1 is also excellent and might be even more technical in some ways with faster transients and tuning tips offering more friendly, with damped treble and sun bass focus and extremely grain free for a dynamic.
To get that one neutral you need this eq.
The beauty of these dynamics is their deficiencies are broad eq adjustable - they don’t do much else wrong in the mids nor do they have significant valleys and peaks in that require surgical eq that doesn’t usually work too well
