Big box felt empty, but smaller one looks nice :smile_phones:

My Initial impressions straight out of the box......
(just tried with standard and balanced connections on WM1A.......rubber vs comply tips).

Straightaway I can hear plenty of detail....and dynamics. The Comply tips give a good seal and result in plenty of bass. The balanced connection improves the clarity further, (the 4.4mm connection is why I bought these).

Treble sparkles, very natural sounding ....not overdone. The combination certainly exposes any flaws in the recordings.

The inclusion of the shirt clip is welcome, this vastly reduces the microphonic cable noise.

Looking forward to running these in.

How much frequently range can effect on sound quality ,??
From my experience the higher frequency response is the better for the overall sound.This is just my impression and other may not agree.Also the dynamic driver size matter? 7 mm vs 11 mm Tesla.
On IE800 s the Y split most likely will pull the earphones down,or you can feel it's weight.
I like simplicity and removable cables at this price point:)
