Alright! In case anybody was following my situation here, I have received the Lenntek Sonix and have an update. The preliminary results are in: I really like these Lennteks!
They have not been broken in at all, so this can change. But right off the bat, I noticed very prominent lows and mids, maybe not so much on the highs. The Radius Atomic Bass phones I had before I remember having good lows and crisp highs, and maybe acceptable mids. But in my opinion, the mids/lows in the Lennteks work much better together and the music seems to have much more body than other phones I've used.
ljokerl was right, these are phones for bassheads. I havent compared them to the Bass Freqs yet, but if I had to say the quality of the bass is much better. As far as quantity I don't know how they stack up, but the bass sounds very smooth.
The build quality on these things is amazing! All metal enclosures, a metal Y piece, nylon wrapped cord, and a strain relief jack. My only concern is there is no grill or mesh covering the drivers. I've never had IEMs like this before; could this be a problem?
I'm very happy with these for $20 shipped. I would recommend them to fellow bass enthusiasts. The highs are there, but definitely not as pronounced as some may like. Personally I dislike those ear biting hi-hats, but I wonder if things will blend together moreso as they are broken in.
Special thanks to ljokerl for pushing these!
