from Tweeter In Nashville Summary:
I bought these because I wanted an upgrade from apple Ear Buds for my IPOD.
My initial purchase was Grado SR-80's, a great phone in their own right, but too bulky for air travel and not able to allow listening without spilling over the sound to neighbors.
Initially, I was looking at the ec-3's, but when I heard the 4's, it was all over. They are a superb product, very compact with very high quality sound. I have been an audiophile for 30 years and own and have owned some of the most famous equipment ever made (LS 3/5a's, Martin Logan Cls's, Aerial 10t's, etc) and I believe these phone measure up in every way. Anyone who is having trouble with the bass needs to use the yellow foam rubber ear plugs to insure a good fit with the ear canal. If you do this the bass is fine and the absolutely superb resolution of this product will shine through Strengths:
Uncanny resollution, transparency and clarity. Very compact size. If you have an MP3 player and travel, these phones are ideal for the plane or the office. High end sound whereever you go! Weaknesses:
They are pricey, but worth every penny. Have not heard the 5c's, but it hard to imagine they could have superior resolution to these things. I hear the 5's offer more bass, but trust me you don't need more bass, more would only muddy things up. Similar Products Used:
