He has balls for sure.

the best thing about making it CIEM is only by coating them. Coating the whole unit. Not reshelling. The tubeless design that makes it sound this goddamn holographic.

@CustomShop you should do it this style (black one). With a small white sony logo at the same font size.

how i wish i can coat my M9 and get this CIEM look. Gosh this is mouthwatering

Looking back after having it's lower siblings (215, 535LTD), that I would think the 846 was what the 535 was supposed to be in terms of upgrade. The 535LTD to me didn't feel like an upgrade in sound from the SE215.

Did you mean the soundstage of the M7 or the 846 wasn't as good? Sorry I was confused at your last statement.

what did u end up with? M7? i tried crushing my highs on M9 by EQ to see how it sounds. Idk if it's accurate since ive never tried M7 personally, but with the specs sheet, M7 has less 1 BA tweeter, my best bet is to crush the highs to imitate the sound. Honestly, it is not that bad. As long as u have played around with the tips. These lines up changes so much with tips. The best is deep fit with its hybrid tips so I use small size tips (light yellow). Probably, if u want to save some bucks, M7 is good enough but if u can find a good deal on M9, im sure M9 with that BA tweeter will shine better.

The M9 needs to be shoved down DEEP, and tips that are too big won't allow it.

Correct, i feel bad for the misconception before that we are saying it needs to be shallow fit. It is pure bliss when you shove DEEP. Im using light yellow hybrid tips currently.

I think I’ve found the perfect tip for me. Sony MH1C tips in size S.

They are a different texture to the standard Sony hybrid silicone tips. Slightly grippier. I found that a deeper insertion with the smaller stock tips sound the best but they kept slipping out of my ear, so these tips are ideal as they maintain the same sound signature and stay in place

correct! i can slip out from our ears. It's hard to get the best size for it to be well deep and tight. Given with the enormous size of tips, the light yellow is not bad for me! sometimes i want it to be grippier.

I would love if sony can make new revisions with longer nozzle seriously.

Try the MH1C tips if you have some the whole IEM can be bought for super cheap (under $20) and you get two full sets of tips.

I highly suggest you check out the updated SpiralDot++! It changed the game for me!

Just in case you are not aware, there is now a updated EQ parameter for M9.
https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/tree/master/results/oratory1990/harman_in-ear_2019v2/Sony IER-M9

I prefer oratory1990's over Crinacle's.

M9 folks, try to stream these:
1. Haven't meet you yet - Michael Buble
2. Lucky - Lenka
3. Fly me to the moon - Frank Sinatra
4. Here comes the sun - The Beatles
5. L-O-V-E - Nat King Cole

Tell me what you think. It gives me shivers. The holographic of M9 just shines and it's phenomenal. Oh yes, please deep fit your M9.

that EQ is making M9 brighter and bass shy so far ive tried. The most obvious thing is it cuts the highs extension that M9 is capable of. Not really my thing. Ive tried Toranku EQ target, this sounds better that oratory though it has no more warm forte that M9 is popular for. The imaging is outstanding still.

If bass shy, you can leave the recommended setting as flat (ie is 0) for frequency 31Hz to 250Hz since this range is related to sub-bass and bass. Further tweak to high extension 16KHzcan be made by changing -11 to -2 instead to keep the characteristic of this BA.

Personally, I feel the oratory1990 is suitable for most music. However for bass heavy music, my tweaks should work fine.

For this reason, I set my ZX507 Custom 1 based on Oratory1990 and Custom 2 based on my tweaks to Oratory's bass and high-extension.

Try these:
Fc/gain/q
120/-3/0.4
1375/-2.9/1
2975/9.5/2.92
3235/-7.5/2.26
900/0.6/3

Everything is the same with what toranku did except in the lows. kudos to him. I kinda like this. i will keep switching depending on my mood.

Thanks for sharing. Too bad my ZX507 doesnt have parametric EQ. Am sure will benefit those reading this thread though.
