Look legit, just like mine. Smooth, good balance, good dynamics, good warmth, good air, voices right there, good imaging, bass with good control and not too punchy, somewhat power hungry, though. Very musical!
Step 1: instant recabling...I used a 80 cm male-female extension for $2.99 from aliexpress [Rock brand as in "Rock Zircon"].
Step 2: Pulling out the ole Sony XBA-C10, a 2013 model.
The XBA-C10 made the "best of" lists of 2014. Superficially, it sounds almost identical to the MH755 but is easier to drive, although not by much. Some claimed the XBA-C10 were the best Sony earphones at the time...which is a bit far fetched in my opinion.
I wonder if it has the same BA as my XBA-1. Mine has treble roll-off after 12 KHz. Bass is not as tight as my other BA IEM.
