Really surprising decision :)

Thanks...Spiral is not working for me, just amplifies the shouty mids. Didn't try any Spinfit though.

Just got the TSMR Feat and out of the box, nothing seems too great. The bass seems a little bit dull, mids a little bit shouty and the overall sound a bit off. Don't like the stock cable and the eartips. Will try other cables. Any recommendations for eartips which can improve the sound a bit?

Totally agree, this surprised me from the first audition, I was expect to something else based on the graph.

Interesting, I would have said exactly the opposite looking at the graphs.

I've had many problems with Harman tuned IEMs, as I found the vocals being too upfront and shouty and the lower mids too lean, so I'm not a fan. That's why I found the IE900 sounding great with metal.

Thanks for this detailed comparison!

Nice comparison, even if I like the IE900, Xelento always tempted me considering the warm signature. Which one would you pick for a deeper, more textured bass and more emotional vocals?

+1

+1. Can you name a few?

Whether is worth paying the price for IE900, only you can decide. For me, IE900 was clear better than IE600. Better bass, better midrange - I found the (generally criticized) dip being ideal for metal, while the IE600 sounded too shouty here. For the highs, again IE900 is the winner, more...

Same here. Will never buy again for this reason.

Thanks for these useful details! Lower mid warmth and 6khz dip seems to suit my preferences, I'm sensitive to upper mids forwardness and I almost always use the EQ for 6 khz. On the other hand, I also like a lot of bass (done right) and the Feat is more tempting for the better texture and bass...

Can someone compare the Tansio Mirai Feat with the Penon Globe?

These IEMs grabbed my attention more and more lately. Can someone compare them with IE900 for metal? I'm very sensitive to the upper mids forwardness and I found the IE900 sounding ideally for metal due to their dip. I don't like shouty vocals or too much in my face.

Can you tell how many hours (approx.) did the battery last after applying the tweaks? Only when listening from local files. Thanks!

Better due to Harman...maybe...for those who like the Harman, I'm not a fan. I've tested both extensively and ended up liking the IE900 a lot more just because I'm sensitive to the upper mids and treble area and IE600 was too shouty for me. They also were lacking the bass quality of the...

Same here.

I've owned the IE800S and the right driver failed after 2 years, always took care of them.

With or without volume cap?

They are indeed more refined, have more and better sub-bass and are safer in the upper-mids area where IE600 are a bit shouty for me. One of the best dynamic driver, the only cons being the price.

No, not the original firmware but the problem was not only with the bass.

I've just tested an A306 (EU model - volume cap) and although the volume was enough for some easy to drive IEMs, the sound was somehow lean and almost lifeless, lacking a lot of dynamics compared to even older models without the volume limitation. Is it possible that the overall sound to be...

I'm using a balanced cable with a 3.5mm 4 pole TRRS plug vs 3.5mm TRS, the regular one. As I said, I'm just getting a slightly better sound.

I'm using only the balanced cable and there is a difference but not quite a big one, just a slightly better sound.
