OK. Answering this question will require in-depth listening for a long while to a variety of different music -- and at different volume levels! So far, I have discovered that some tracks do sound a bit high-frequency shy. The overall tonal balance, though, seems overall still better than your latest (Dec. 27) version. But time will tell -- maybe. ;-) Now, if you could only come up with this bass quality + a bit better treble extension . . . But thanks again for sharing your work!
