Thanks for the feedback, the M1 is meant to be a more balanced sound where all parts are well represented, the proalphas are meant to have more bass and good miss. How long have you let the m1 burn in for? If you enjoy the proalpha at 5hrs of use you will enjoy it even more after some more length of use.

That's what scares me! I want to gift them in the near future and i dont want to overuse them.

Well giving them burned in might be better than giving them not burned in.

I was thinking of purchasing some M1's at the awesome preorder price but I was wondering which type of Comply foam tips come as part of the accessories package. (Accessories now included: 3x silicone tips, 1x comply foam tips, shirt clip and hard carrying case.)

Different types are here: http://www.complyfoam.com/pages/Foam-Tips.html

If somebody could help me I would appreciate it although the inclusion of Comply tips is an added extra and the Silicone tips alone are more than enough

I own both M1 and M2, and I don't regret owning both~
I initially got M1 and I was really impressed by it's clarity. Being a basshead, I also bought M2 and it also did not fail to deliver~
Now that I have both, which one do I use more? Well, of course M2 being a basshead but M1 still draws me to use it as I really enjoy it. I would say that I use M2 60% of the time and M1 40% of the time. In conclusion I would recommend both equally for their strengths~ and at it's preorder price of M1 why would u not get one?

Thanks for your review. If you want to get best of both world then look into the M3 for your next earphone purchase.

Just to share my opinion. Ive moved from senny PX100-II to m1s, without any experience with IEMs. When they arrived, I didnt like the small amount of bass and more highs to be heard, but after 2 days of listening to, i must say ive fallen in love with them. Im not kind of the biggest audiophile, but i can hear some differences. Im listening to huge spectrum of music, from jazz, downtempo and DnB with dubstep all way to many kinds of new and also old metal. As they are supposed to sound balanced, I expected them to be alright when it comes to metal, but weak (due to lack of bass) when it comes to bassy electric styles, like dubstep is. In fact, i was shocked, after some burning in by regular usage (i have them almost a year now i believe), how great they represent each style. Ive got really very fast used to their balanced sound, and I no longer lack any bass or anything. When my friend borrows me his porta pros, im sick from all those basses and everything else behind. There is really a large, LARGE gap between the quality of those 2. The clarity of m1 compared to bassy and non-detailed portas, just keeps me stunned, because there is almost no price difference. Also, it pairs very well with my iTouch, so I can just recommend m1s to everyone who is looking for some balanced IEMs, and also to everyone who is new to IEM (because they are not so expensive). I would never throw them away.
Oh and yes, so i dont forget, the cable is really cool, it never really entangles, so i just pull them out of my pocket and they are instantly ready, great feature.

Thank you for the review m4te, glad that you are still enjoying them after all this time.

Haha I can't wait until the pair of M1's come in I ordered I lost my other one's somehow....
I got a pair of cheap sony's... they sound SOOOOO bad in comparison
On the plus side I can update my review with the comfly tips .

Hopefully the first of the preorders will be reaching people later this week/early next. If you are in the US and waiting for tracking you will get it by Friday, just waiting for the M1 stock to arrive at Amazons warehouse.
