Does the UM3x have bass impact?
I'm listening to a BA IEM right now and missing the bass thump of a dynamic.

I like hearing details. It's so relaxing hearing all them sparkly cymbals and piano and stuff.
But many of my collections are rock and metal. Listening to them without the bass massaging my ears seems pointless and doesn't seem to fit the mood of the music. Does EQing help with the UM3x?

tunertoobe, then you should aim for a bassier IEM. Maybe IE8 or w3

Was thinking more towards dynamics. Futuresonics is out as they may become too bassy for me. The Radius DDM is another(and currently sits at second place under the UM3x), but afraid that it might not fit well. The IE8 and W3 is too expensive and not sure they have the balance that I want.

The only other option is headphones.

Also what puts ,me off is that it only comes with comply foam tips. I sorta accepted that when confirming my order for next year. But after looking at it again, kind of a hassle, and non sharing friendly. My friends love to hear my rig. laugh.gif
