Funny, I found the Z1R easily to be my worst can (besides Grado). Nice bass (without too much sophistication) and a weird spike in the treble which made it sound thin and piercing. I really wanted to like it since it was so comfortable, but the tuning was so off.

I never noticed the treble spike, or at least it doesn’t bother me. I find going from something like the TC to Z1R makes the Sony sound dull. If you give your brain time to adjust all the details are there, they just aren’t jumping up and down to get your attention.

My moon audio black dragon cable fixed this problem for me
this phone,imo,is really sensitive to its cable.
the worst cable was the Sony kimber upgrade cable. Just horrible
I am facing a really annoying problem of bass imbalance and it's driving me crazy!
I started noticing it in multiple songs so I wanted to test this further.
Bass is much louder on the left side.
I tested the frequencies from 5hz to 100hz.
The largest differences are between 25hz to 50hz - In those frequencies the difference is huge and it feels like bass is mostly coming from the left ear - like 70% left ear, 30% right ear.
At 55hz the bass is much more even.
And between 60hz to 100hz the bass is perfectly even.
When I play at really low volume it doesn't even sounds like bass is playing from the right side.
The problem is the same even when I connected the cable in the opposite way.

He said it's the same with the headphone switched around on his head, so that would suggest an issue with the left driver, no? Probably best to check with Abyss.
