These higher end shocks provide the dealer/end user a few options for tweaking. As

mentioned the shims are the primary way the valving is changed. The psi for the nitrogen added can be increased/decreased as well as the viscosity of the oil used. Once you add the remote resi and Adjustment knob the end user can turn a knob that restricts the oil flow which primarily changes the rebound, compression is changed very slightly.
At the end of the day for you the Icon shock is a smoother better performing shock.
