Sead, i'd like to thank you and the rest of your team for your work, i think that the MH1 is a great product that performs above its price. I am one of those guys that tend to continuously listen to music for many hours per day without breaks, and the smooth signature of these enables me to do this without fatigue.
That's why i really like the treble on these, you have achieved a really nice balance between detail retrieval and smoothness. The mids are also nice and musical, but i have to agree with goodvibes on the bass. It has a nice extension, but it's too much for me, and it's also lacks speed and control. I am no expert, but to my ears mids and highs seem to be better executed so i think letting the bass overshadow the rest of the FR isn't flattering to the MH1s sound, plus they can be fatiguing with bass heavy music.
Of course i can and in fact do use an equalizer with these. A 10->0 db cut in the 30-300hz range makes them sound wonderful to my ears, and a 6->0 db cut negates fatigue without making them loose their bass-heavy sound. Still not everyone has access to an equalizer and it's kind of a pain to have to match settings between different implementations with different numbers of bands.
I hope i don't sound overly critical, my intention was to offer some direct and honest feedback which is something consumers rarely have the opportunity to do. I really feel i have to thank you for this unique opportunity, i don't know exactly what your presence here entails, but i am sure it isn't trivial.
I also hope we will see more products from you guys. A more neutral offering and/or a dual microdriver configuration would probably make head-fi explode
