So i just got my new EW 200 as my first IEM and my first impression is very good. It has very good build and the package come with 3 sets of eartips which is kinda nice. But the problem begins when i listen to some tracks, IT’S TOO SIBILANT like the s and t sound really piercing especially the s sound. I try to Eq it by lowering the 7k hz by -9 db and it’s still really bright for me. Is it bc I’m treble sensitive? or mine hadn’t burn in yet? and is there any way that i can fix this plz help i’m kinda disappointed since this is my first IEM and i hear a lot of good things abt it🥲
I also found the the EW200 to be a bit too bright in the upper midrange. A really simple fix to reduce the brightness in the upper midrange is to install the 300 mesh filters which are included in the DIY tuning kit for the EA500. Here is an Aliexpress link for the tuning kit:

I liked the 300 mesh filters the best. The 200 mesh filters will not reduce the brightness quite as much, and the 500 mesh filters reduced the brightness a bit too much. You simply use the included tweezers from the DIY tuning kit to install a mesh filter directly on top of the metal dust filter which is in the end of each of the EW200’s nozzles. The mesh filters from the tuning kit fit perfectly in the EW200’s nozzles. After installing the mesh filters, I found that the EW200 is one of the best IEMs which you can buy which costs less than $50. Here a few photos of my EW200 IEMs after I installed the 300 mesh filters:
