haven't heard the CRA og, but the CRA+ has a god awful bass boost that is pretty much hardcooked into the IEM, EQ doesn't do much to take care of it.l

so the plus stands for more bass, okay got it. I own the CRA and I think the bass is just fine so adding more bass to it sounds like a bad idea.

You are absolutely correct, the CRA+ just ruins things with its bass.

I have both. The main difference is the corrected treble response on the CRA+ which no longer sounds grainy, harsh and overly accentuated on treble heavy music and songs with vocal sibilance present. As for the bass, i'm using short and wide bore Moondrop Spring tips on mine, and the bass response is generally similar aside from the fact that on some tracks the CRA+ has a touch more warmth and midbass presence. I don't think the bass ruins anything on both CRA and CRA+, but then again i find iems like ety extremely limp in terms of bass response so i can see people thinking that these are too bassy.
