There was an older UE universal that was a BA/DD hybrid. Never heard it but I think I read that it was supposed to be pretty awful.The last time I said there weren't any others somebody gave me a list of models from brands I've never heard of. I don't remember any of them anymore though.
Is there something difficult about bass response for BA's? What was their rational for a dynamic bass driver, especially if it wound up sounding bloated and disjointed? The JH13 seemed to have awesome bass from what I remember of the universals I heard.
Well to my defense, I did indicate that the standard was the UERM. I don't think that Music123 guy has heard or had any experience with the great IEMs.
There's a timbre in the low end people are used to w/ woofers. Many IEMers consider the overall tonality of a woofer more 'natural' though they do move more air more effortlessly by virtue of surface area. It's the same thinking like the AKG 340 rather than using a single large estat.
