Not sure what you mean by Levee drums being thinned. The playback was slowed. It helps create that swampy drag. And lowering the pitch will thicken things up. The symbols sound unusual.

Dyson's new earwax vac.

I recently stopped using these because I could not put up with the discomfort of the fit anymore. I am one of the outliers who hears Ety bass as neutral/ correct. People should get the 2 series though, as they are cheaper and have lower distortion with the same sound. Maybe the real appeal of...

Hexa is the best I have tried. Then Ety 4, regular and bassier one. I went through a lot of garbage iems before those.

Apparently the nozzle is around 5.5mm. Isn't that thinner than average, and so more comfortable for some?

Was JohnYang1997 involved with this design?

I think women will represent half the audiophile population around about the same time as they do in roofing crews.

Forgive the sexism, but I bet she is not into audio at all and one of her many assistants had the task to provide the machinery for music, when she had a whim for it one day. No matter how much we can fantasize a woman like that would be interested in such things, it does not seem like it could...

Carter Mclean and Dimsunk are two of my favorites of modern players. Unmistakable in terms of level and groove, I suppose. Not sure I could pick them out blind.

Spinfit w1. The foamies that came with the Hexa were pretty good, just a bit small. I have ordered some Symbio foams and their hybrids W tips as well. The original Ws were too stiff in the past when I tried them and uncomfortable; the formula has changed so we'Il see. I liked the concept of that...

Once I found tips that sealed at the right depth the Hexa turned out to be a winner for me.

The Neumanns are acceptable in a utilitarian way. I could not live with Genelecs. They look like a 1950s conception of The Future.

Closely mic'd, and also compression

Ok, with foamies again and jammed in my ears they sound like the graph now. Very very nice.The praise for these is deserved. I like them better than the Senn 560 and 6xx. Better than Etys as well, and for me Etymotic are above the Senns.

Please explain those frequency adjustments, as I do not understand. Why are all the mid upper mid and treble frequencies within most instrument voices not adjustable, where the ear is most attuned/sensitive? A lot of important control would be at say 3kh and 6kh for instance, or say where female...

The fome tips improved things. The others don't work well at alI. I still hear the Hexa as bright though, like in a wispyness to male vocal sometimes, or on a recording of nylon string guitar suddenly I hear a lot of right hand fingernail. I am liking these more tonight though, and with the...

A lot of iems sound weird and unnatural to me with too much or too little of something or other even when the graphs are coherent (with the exception of Etys), and I conclude something is unusual about my ear canal. The deep insertion of the Etymotics bypasses the problem.

I have some spinfits coming. Better ear seal amd depth I suspect will fix things. The stock smalls sounded quite bad.

The Hexa is very bright for me and it might be partly a tip issue. The narrow bore mediums sounded best while still being overlit, with highs in voice pushed forward and snare having a weird attack etc...Are there tips that even things out? The sound was quite different between the stock smalls...

Rather strong take on it. Maybe some mild condescension, I suppose. The error is the reviewer cliche, "even my friend, who isn't into gear....."
