Little update: tested them with all well fitting tips and I gotta say they are not for me.. And I like Harman. The subwoofer ruins songs where it doesn't belong imo. Like listen to electronic music with them, great, the subwoofer slaps, but do it with acoustic music or songs where realistic bass is required and it's terribly overexaggerated.

So idk, a one trick pony is what these are I would say. I will return them because I own more neutral galaxy buds pro, but it was fun trying them out.

What eartips are you using? Some do exaggerate the bass.

How did you get them so fast? It took me a month to get them shipped to my mailbox 😅

Amazon prime lol.. I used spring tips and also tried everything that fit that came with them.. The subwoofer was always too strong for me, but only with music where I didn't need it.

But take that with a grain of salt, I have the HD6XX, their bass is fairly light so I'm used to that. Like some songs slapped just too hard. An example would be the acoustic version of Hotel California from the album hell freezes over, there is a drum in the beginning and with the zeros it slaps way above how it should be.

The zeros shine a lot when they can play out their strengths but when they are not needed then it's not enjoyable for me, that's why I will return them.

Fair enough, I feel like something like the ER2SEs would be the ones you would enjoy, very little bass compared to most IEMs.

Yeah probably, but I think I will pass on getting more for now. Maybe something higher end one day, but only out of curiosity because I think I'm more of a headphone person :)
