Maybe its me, but I went from the SE425 to these and I felt like it was a downgrade. That middish bass hump just ruins everything for me. Kinda at a loss as to what to buy now.
Obviously not you.
Good for you.
Hi All
Just letting you know that i have the Toxic Cables Silver Poison on my IE80s and i can assure you that the difference in sound is easily discernible. It is improved in all areas, bass mid, and treble. There is NO snake oil here. These cables are not as expensive as the Piccolino and take this IEM up a notch or two in sound quality.
Also, just a general comment on the tape mod. I gave it a try and immediately took it off. It certainly gives the impression of more detail but that is because the lower midrange and upper bass become recessed. To my ears the mod does not make the IE80 more neutral as i have seen commented. The bass becomes anemic and that is not neutral.
What who pays that much for a cable...smh
For those of you who don't like the tape mod, try puncturing a hole in the tape with a thumb tack before you apply it to the IE80. Make sure hole in the tape lines up with the center of the bass dial. It brings out more bass but the mid bass is still controlled and doesn't overwhelm.
look about 12-13 pages back. Or something around that number.
