I just cannot stand the sibilance: it actually hurts my ears. And I cannot even begin to believe that someone could say that there isn't any. It brings back memories of my horrible experience with my first IEM, the v-moda Vibe, which to my ears puts the "SSSSSS" in Sibilance. But that's just me and everone hears things different I guess. |
