My expectations haven't been lowered even the slightest. You troll way too much and now your credibility is on par with the boy who cried wolf.

After about 30 hours of burn in and listening to some of my favorite tracks from Red Hot Chili Peppers and Foo Fighters, the polite treble is the one thing I keep focusing on, in a bad way. I am okay with the softer bass but the cymbals from these bands all sound the same whereas on the GR07BE and even the VSD1, to some extent, can differentiate the various cymbal strikes.
 
I know I was enamored initially about the overall neutrality, but the more I listened, the more I missed the splashy clangs of the highs.
 
I feel these may be stored as backup to my backup...

Sorry for the slightly off topic but since I see that we have similar tastes, what IEM do you think is the best till now for our kind of music? Too bad that the LE don't cover your needs but with your statement I feel kinda relieved that I "missed" them.

The GR07BE is my favorite in terms of overall sound with just enough bass, and great treble energy. $130 from lendmeurears. They have perfect form and function.
 
No.2 would be Sony XBA-4iP for sound alone (these were my first taste of higher end IEMs- I pounced on a pricing sticker error ($210 vs $350) when I was looking around a Sony store). Their bulky housing and cable down config gets kind of annoying since I like to run the cable inside my jacket and they get pulled off when I turn my head. The 1st gen XBA's are J-split cord for non mic/buttons and Y-split for those with mic/buttons. I don't know about the 2nd gens.
 
No.3 is Phonak PFE 132 for its nice balanced sound and comfort.
