See my photo comparing size of cables in ie800S thread. Also more impressions there. Increased soundstage while keeping the nice clarity throughout the frequency range.
Thank you. For some reason, I hadn’t even thought about an IE 800S thread.

Have you tried some Comply foam tips? They will tame the treble a little.Just got myself a pair of IE800's and my oh my are they breath-taking.
The detail is pretty amazing, soundstage mesmerising, and the bass is spot on.
However, the treble was a little too much for my tastes. I wonder of they'll calm down a little with some burn in...

In the light of the last few replies, I wanted to add that I am still enjoying the treble of ie800 very much!
No the treble does not change so don’t put them playing in a draw for 500 hours. Spend a couple weeks with em, try not to swap with other headphones and see if your brain grows to accept the treble. You might end up wishing you never complained about the treble at that point.
Like some women manage to have an Immaculate Conception. Such as Mary did...Burn-in is an empirical phenomenon. ... Even cables that use a higher performance dialectic can change in sound with extended play time.
Of Course...In my humble view, of course.
