I'm not going to answer those questions because I don't see its relevance or I already addressed it, or I just reclarified it in a different way. Reference sound isn't relative to another model of earphones, it's relative to the original sound that the recording captured.
DAC isn't going to make that drastic of a difference that would lead to a 3-5dB midbass forwardness unless it's actively boosting the bass. An amp would also make a minimal difference for the 1more which is low impedance and designed for portable players. The only way I could see one person hearing that midbass boost and another person not is if one person didn't have a good seal and another person did.
With that said, my perceptions of the 1more is with an iBasso dac/amp.
If you really do insist you hear a reference, balanced sound with the 1more triple driver with your setup, could you please play a frequency sweep on this link? Pay close attention from 50Hz to 600Hz. Does it sound close to being equal in volume throughout that frequency range?
