These have been burning in for 20 hours, and so far I hate the sound. They are very comfortable. Very (for me). But the highs are horribly harsh. Overdone, tinny, almost like they are being projected through a long horn. Does it get better? Please tell me it's going to get better. Or that I'm wearing them wrong. I've seen the advice here to not push them deep into the ears, and that helps, but no matter where I place the drivers (a millimeter of change at a time), the sound may change, but it's never audiophile-grade. I hope it gets better...

lbdesignAfter a few days, it's getting better. The highs are more natural, transparent and very clear. Voices still sound a bit hollow, but I'm hopeful that will clear up as well. Ear placement is very finicky still. To adjust the sound, try rotating the emitter angle up and down, as well as using the hinge to angle it in and out of your ear.

lbdesignA couple months later, voices still sound a bit like they are being sung through an old-fashioned paper megaphone. The bass is good — especially good for such an open design. All the highs are there, but a bit harsh. There's a lot of detail if they are perfectly positioned in your ears, and they are very efficient — I have to turn the volume down vs my on- or over-the-ear headphones. The vocal zone is still harsh and has that "through a horn" quality that makes long listening sessions tiring (though physical comfort is fine). But I claim to have golden ears and I'm VERY picky. You may not be bothered by this. I am tending to choose other headsets over these for both casual and critical listening. They are nice in the summer, however, since there's nothing to get all sweaty.
