Hi @Jmop , I've managed to take a graph of the Astrotec Vesna.
IEC711 compliant coupler. 8 kHZ area is a resonance peak.
There is indeed a subbass roll off and a peak around 6 kHz on listening. 8 khz is a resonance peak. Haha lesson learned is not to trust store provided graphs.
I think if we can EQ away the 6 kHz region, or use foam tips/warmer sources, that 6 kHz area will not be so splashy for cymbals and highhats.
I got mine burning in right now. On brief listen, bass sounds leaner than the graph suggests but I may need to switch from stock tips for a better seal. Lower treble does sound a touch glassy.. A brighter signature might've worked if the treble didn't lose steam so quickly. Vocal timbre is good despite the sibilance. If anything at least the detachable cable is decent on it's own.
Is 2980 Yen, which is about $26 USD. Comes with Final E white tips.
Apparently this IEM marketed for students. Like do students need a particular graph/sound signature haha? However, the specs suggest an amp is needed (low sensitivity), I am doubtful most students own an amp.
STUDY HARD STUDENTS!!! Don't get distracted by the gear music but focus on studying!!!

Noodle thin cable aside (I agree), I don't think most students are interested to buy an additional amp (which is probably more expensive than this IEM itself) just to power it sufficiently.
Unless they are audiophile students like our dear @RikudouGoku haha
The E5000 is another super demanding IEM, that makes it quite of non-portable, since a desktop amp is most likely needed (perhaps there are exceptions like some powerhouse devices like apogee groove).

I'm not sure if I'm underestimating 'students' here but provided they get enough volume are they likely to know they need an amp for this to scale? It looks like it's aimed towards young teenagers...I don't like to make sweeping generalisations but I'm inclined to say they will be more concerned with earphone aesthetics and the latest social media trends.

Really interesting thing they're going for - with Google Translate it seems like the earphones are less about listening to music and more for emphasizing voices to help understand conversations in an educational setting (including learning to speak English) so... (upper) mids boost I guess?
Yoooooooo!! Yeah forget about listening to music, with these earphones I can better make out what my profs on Zoom calls with staticky mics are saying so I don't have to waste time rewatching the lecture recordings over and over, and can focus on handing in my assignments on time to get those A+'s
