Yeah but what changes do you actually expect? Again what I meant is making changes so that it affects the frequency response, there isn't actually a magic button they can press that "improves technicalities" really.

Knowing audiophiles one way to do so would be to increase the price of the IEM.

I expect a better drivers, that's it. I understand that they will affect cost so I don't expect them to make a 50$ monarc mk 2 level of technical performance but Zeros DD's can definitely be replaced with better ones(like the ones which olina is using) and it will affect technical performance in a good way.

Not necessarily really, if anything just using the Olina drivers will likely make them sound worse altogether since those drivers weren't designed to be used with the TE0 shell.

I understand that u have to tune different drivers differently to match Ur target FR graph and my point still remains since nothing can stop truthear from adjusting shell and nozzles and crinacle to tune different drivers to his new target, my point about driver upgrade still remains since as I said Zero with different FR response is a side grade and only a driver upgrade with good tuning can make me want to buy project red.

You are kind of missing the point here, tuning and "better technicalities" is pretty much something that's directly related so these two will likely perform differently anyway.

Yes I agree but the difference won't be that significant ( at least in my eyes), especially considering how zero is already a pretty much tuned excellent. On the other hand a different (better) driver with a good engineering work (including tuning) can give much noticeable boost in technical abilities. Tuning is not everything, otherwise 1k sets would make zero sense since u could basically tune a 20$ single DD iem good enough to make a 90% performance of that higher end iem.
