This is not my usual sound signature which I like. But it's a lot of fun in a unique way. One-trick pony.

Easy reccomendation for somoene looking for a basshead IEM that still retains some resemblence of neutrality through the mids and treble. Loaner

B+ Tech

The defacto basshead rec before the more expensive stuff. Super fun sub-bass, textured, heavy, prolonged decay for more reverb in the bass, well-balanced as well, smooth and scales great. Tech is not its strong point, and DON'T buy from FatFreq directly!!!
