Test:
Queen - I'm going slightly mad.
Joan Baez - Jesse
Queen - Who wants to live forever

Using unamped MuVo V200

Soundwise, the MuVo is able to drive both the ER4P and RE1 very nicely. Power-wise, for Etys I have to set volume at 20/25, for the RE1 it's 23/25. The RE1 have the larger sondstage and darker presentation. Etys tend to be shrill sounding and Freddie Mercury's "s" is more pronounced.
Jesse: the initial claps can be "counted" with both IEMs. Both reveal the same amount of details, but while the RE1 are darker, the Etys shift everything to the bright.
Joan Baez vocals sound more "intense", "felt" with the RE1, while are lean and almost empty using the ER4P.
Who wants to live forever: Etys tend to enhance electronic effects (like using the Energy equalizer of my old JVC player), things tend to sound more artificial, giving a sort of "special effects" presentation. The RE1 capture better the emotion of the song.
