Can you compare this AM05 vs IT01S in terms of soundstage, imagine, bass decay and treble extended ?

IT01S has quicker bass decay, AM05 has more upfront midrange & IT01S has extra sparkle while AM05 has a smoother presentation. The soundstage on both is quite similar. Cheers!

Hello, thanks for interesting read! Can you say if you’ll consider AM05 an upgrade to IT01S or are they on par, just different sound tone? Is the nozzle the same diameter in AM05 compared to IT01S? Thanks!

Hi, I would say it is an upgrade and it offers a different sound signature too. The nozzle is around the same. Cheers!
