psygeist said:^^which genre did you check and which all sound best on B2 ? Considering to order a B2 too. Where does the B2 take the lead comparing to Vsonic GR07 ?
bennysachdev said:Hi nizarp, this may sound a lil silly but are you wearing the B2 around and over the ear or straight down? This has much to do with the fit of the iems and may provide a better seal thus leading to a better extension in the bass which you could be losing out due to seal issues. Also keep the volume a tad lesser, this may help in reducing the fatigue incurred from long listening sessions. Remember, a good iem will give you all the details the music has to offer at the least volume level.

B2/DBA-02 are aggressive with a forward mid range and "in your face" treble. It can also get a little overwhelming with detail due to the compressed dynamics. All this could lead to some fatigue. GR07 on the other hand, can be used as a reference for bass and texture of notes, so no way B2 would extend as much as GR07.
Try a foam tip to tame the treble and perhaps a deeper seal. Anaxilus has mentioned that DBA-02 is better with a deeper seal where the housing almost disappears into the ear. If your ear canals and ear shape could allow that, that's one thing to try out!

The choice between these will be purely based on one's tastes. If you want more micro detail, extra clarity and an overall aggressive sound, B2 is the way to go. But if you prefer an enveloping, textured and realistic bass presentation with an overall relaxed sound, GR07 is the one.
This is purely my opinions on these, so take it with a bucket of salt.
Hope this helps.
