PS200 owners, did you find any outstanding sibilance with your pairs? I listen to mostly rock, and I'm finding nasty edges on words like 'sssecret' and 'tyke'- worse than even my ER6s. It's a shame, because otherwise I'm quite enjoying my brand new PS200s. I'm hoping it will sort out after a few dozen hours, but I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this.

And yes, I do know that balanced armatures supposedly don't have a burn-in period, but I'm going to play music for about a day or two through them anyways. Some users claim to have noticed significant changes with some armature 'phones, like the Shure SE530s.

I haven't noticed any sibilance in mine.

There seems to be some consensus forming that balanced armatures with crossovers do have a burn-in period, that it's the caps in the crossovers that benefit.
