This is actually higher end than Shure SE846's although the Shure's were more popular for their addictive bass. The W80 has enough bass unless you're a bass head and is actually a better balanced IEM, way less fatiguing, and more comfortable for long hours of use. It's a shame that they didn't sell well at its MSRP, and now it's only at $400 which is just a steal. I remember buying these initially when the first version came out at full MSRP $1500 and thought they were really good, and later bought again at $750 which I resold because I had too many IEM's. I'm debating to get these at this price to make it a traveling IEM, but my AirPods Pro 2's are also way too convenient to not use. FWP's lol

i have seen 12 driver ones and so on... it's all relative.. ideally, dedicated drivers should = to refined/dedicated performance, but to each his/her own

Reviews seem to indicate they have thin bass.

I've ordered one. How's this compared to IE600 or any other high end IEMs?

This or the Shure 846? Is it an evident jump in sound quality? Does it have a wider Soundstage?

I have Shure 846 and going to skip this. But it is a valid question.
