haven't listened to my 755 in quite a while, but as i remembered the bass is similar to Kanas, which is those rumbly subbass "skull massaging" type of bass.. I'll try to listen to it tonight and compare them to make sure.
i don't think this T2 plus would do that, even after some period of burn time..in fact, it might get smoother and tighter.. though i think based on the already smooth OOTB sound, it won't change much anyway.
the deepest it can go i think is like the BL03 level, which makes this T2 plus good for acoustic/electric bass, but not optimal for electronic/synth bass

Oh, I never expected it to get there by itself. I was hoping for about half as much. As I said, I do EQ the mh755 bass down 3-4db.


Edit: pulled them off burn in for a quick listen, about 20hrs so far. Noticed slightly more bass or I've adjusted by letting my ears relax overnight. Bass still rolled off and is more mid-bass centric. It can now be EQ'ed to an acceptable (to me) and to more than I want level.

Yeah, I finally updated by signature. Not like it was that difficult, since I sold most of my IEM's to kinda pare down the wall display. Now to keep reading, comparing, and having the finger on the buy buttons.

I would say the I3 is my favorite set, followed by the Rah and then CL2 and uf ybf isso14. But I need to put some work on it so I can articulate what I think.
Oh my! That Tri i3 keeps haunting me, especially compared to Rah. Missed good sale on it because of COVID. Delivery bounced. May still get it on 11.11, unless IMR EDP blows me away. Will see. I tend to like IEMs where mids not done by BA because I'm sensitive to harmonics that BA throws in the treble.

Tanchjim Hana?? Hana looks bright by the graph though.

Haven't heard both but they look very much different IT00 and Hana.

i prefer half left tuning of Hana, and half up tuning of IT00. I like less than 10db pinna gain tuning, my preference is 8db pinna gain on 2khz and dip on 3khz, or pinna gain on 4khz but still not past 8db. if pinna gain is over 10db, they are tend to be shouty

This.

People with bad ears can shove their 10db spike elsewhere. Especially in the overrated pinna gain region.

Glad I did'nt spend 400 Euro on Rah & opted for i3 instead.....EDP look way better value for a planar set - looking forward to the reviews!

Everyone’s ears are different - size, shape, skin thickness, pinna, ear canal dimensions, etc.

Just because someone might have different shaped ears as you, doesn’t make them “bad ears”.

P2 gonna be exciting... hopefully
Another planar?
The schematic they show clearly has a planar diaphragm. If I had to guess it looks larger, the bass might not be as anemic....
