Based on this, I would have to say that the seal and shape of the IEM are at least as important as the drivers. Yet another area of improvement could be the dual-bore design on the ES2 as opposed to the single-bore UM2. Anyway, I don't know enough about IEM design to make an educated assessment. But, there's clearly more than the model of the drivers at play when talking about sound quality. |
