By the way, the sound has changed. Saturation has become less, but the emphasis on treble and midrange is more emphasized. The sound is a bit like Astell Kern products. I don’t know if I like this sound or not ... I need to listen.

Today I received the Sony xba-Z5.
The Z5 is the fantastic.
I like electronic music with very deep bass impact.
Blown the Shure se846 away, no burn in, not yet balanced, got balanced cable in stock.
The se846 lacks bass with my 1A, with my Zx1 they work super.
The 1A is not a ba monster for electronic music, I am on J 3.02 stock with an European unit, no sound cap anymore.
The 1A works super with hybrids, got cheap KZ Zs7 and they sound very good for 40 bucks but missing the last extra SQ.

And.. put in quite some time and effort to find the firmware/region best suitable for your setup:)
interesting Wm1z /
ex1000- without filter on the nozzle / Solis / J / it is a synergy of the end of the game
Xelento / Solis / J / nothing revealing
Jvc 1200 / Solis / J / very weak synergy

Yes it’s all about finding the combo that works best for the gear and musical preference

Hybrids with my WM1A mostly Dunu DK 3001 Pro, set to high gain, has some decent kick without being over whelming or spilling over. Add in Sony's DSP can go deep, the 3001 Pro's also take EQ on the bass with ease

Sub bass is palpable

WM1A set to J region, stock 3.02, balanced on high gain, DC Phase Lineariser B Standard, Vinyl Processor Surface Noise. DK 3001 Pro is very well balanced can deliver bass as the music demands without overly colouring the source.

Just suburb...

Moskau...

High Gain narrows the sound stage a little, bass punch is increased at lower volumes, with hybrid & muti BA IEM's. My opinion only, suspect Sony is increasing both current alongside & amplitude when opting for High Gain. Addictive, easily gets very loud, in a good way...

Naturally, be rude not too...
