I've been thinking the same thing about earphones with the wide nozzle. They all seem so much more unconstrained than their narrow nozzle brethren.... such as the Atrios, which have recessed/choked mids and treble. The W3's had sibilance issues. The Sleeks and Klipsch image X10's weren't too bad, but still not as natural and open as the wide nozzle varieties. Don't even get me started on the Phonaks.......
Anyway, I think the wide opening has a lot to do with an open sound. I really wish FutureSonics would try a dynamic with the wide nozzle, I'd love to hear that.
