obviously - people who truly know what they're doing always get touchy and defensive when faced with suggestions they take as accusations. you sure showed me.
You can say you disagree with an opinion without trying to downplay it with basic audio knowledge. If you're going to mansplain I will treat you with the same level of respect.
What's touchy is people trying to defend their purchase when there are better options available with a better tuning for a lower price.

If only your posts didnt reek of insecurity and condescending tones, maybe somebody would listen to you.
First of all we all trying to help you.
Secondly I am really surprise about your response regarding SQ. Maybe you got a lemon?
I had two pairs of Euclids, one from $600 deal and second from $399 deal.
Both sounds great even in my basic office setup kind of similar to yours minus Apple Music Lossless and Tidal MQA as a source.
They do benefit from burning-in and factory tuning is odd.
But with proper EQ and tips they are on a part with Shure 846 in base region, less bright in mids and highs.
Still comparing Euclids to my Dorado, but it's single planar vs. single dynamic.
For $399 and even $299, you're overpaying. You should know that you shouldn't have to EQ at this price, and yet you need to in order to fix some very apparent gaps in the tuning.
There are several other options that have a better, more consistent tuning and are much cheaper, such as the Truthear Hexa and even the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. Both measure much better Frequency response wise, and other areas like Soundstage and Isolation aren't far off.
If you have a Samsung phone, the Euclid and BT adapter is pointless because you won't get Samsung's Scalable 24 bit codec. So why get a worse codec from the BT adapter and worse tuning for $299-399 when the Buds 2 Pro can be had easily for ~$120-140 on a trade-in/sale?
No tips can fix tuning, and no I did not get a lemon. I have a different opinion than you and you can either agree or disagree. If you're going to downplay it, tell me I have a broken set, or that I'm doing something wrong, you're just low-key insulting at that point.
The stock tuning on these suck, but when EQed to match some reference tracks they are AMAZING. I got the $400 previous deal and am so glad I have them.
And those that say they have no bass must not be using the right tips or are not using EQ. They will overdeliver on bass if asked to.
It was a pretty good deal for $400 because it came with Bluetooth and balanced cables, on top of the regular 3.5mm cables.
I wasn't very impressed with the sound quality though. Very good but not $1,300+ retail price good.
Same issue they had with the iSine's, which also ended up being discounted to around this price. An interesting product that sounds pretty good, but not competitive at the price point.
Honestly, I am not surprise at all how that dude reacted to all who was trying to help him.
He is probably only one who did not like this IEMs but trying to pose as an expert to prove his opinion that this is bad set.
If compilation of his posts will be posted on any respectful audio forum, it will laughable.
In regards to Euclids, let's not forget that we dealing with closed-back planar magnetic IEM.
I wish factory tuning was done differently, but since they well react to EQ, I will forgive Audeze engineers.
I initially got Euclids to compare with iSine20 open back planars, but during listening somehow i fell in love with them.
So for those who like them - continue to enjoy, for those who didn't like them, just move on and be happy with what make you smile while listening to your favorite tune!

ego more fragile than a faberge egg.
I don't own this set anymore — they weren't for me — but I'll continue to try & help others get the most out of the set they own bc they can sound excellent.
They're used. I've bought several bstock. Two from adorama. They all presented as new and do include the manufacturer's warrantee because Adorama is an authorized dealer
So basically B stock in this case means refurbished but with full manufacturer's warranty?
