I've been trying to figure this out since I got them... It seems that a good number of people are constantly refering to the E5 as bass heavy. The thing is, if you compare them to most full sized cans, the bass is just average. Consider for example the HD650. It has arguably more bass than the E5, and yet doesn't seem to carry the "bass heavy" label the E5 does. I understand that the E5 puts an emphasis on bass and mids, but that would make them "treble light" if anything, and not "bass heavy". In my opinion, to become "bass heavy" the bass has to over power the mids AND trebles. For example I could understand why someone might think the UE Super.Fi Pro is a bit on the "bass heavy" side, and the EB very much on the "bass heavy" side.
Anyway, this is just something that's been bothering me for a while since the E5 seems to get a bit of a bad rep from it.
**BTW**
To anybody that's waiting on my big review. I've had a lot going on this week and still haven't gotten over to Edwood's house to pick up the UE Super.fi EB and the Etymotic ER4s, as well as his Pimeta. I'll try and get over there later today or tomorrow so I can have the review out early next week. My most humble appologies for the delay.
