Hi powderhound23!

Can you make a comparaison between your ES2/ER4P and the Westone 3 especially in terms of vocals/midrange placement,etc...? (I like forward vocals!)

It would be really nice cause it would be my first IEM purchase and I want to make the best choice !

Thanks alot for all these insights !

I dont think he can. He's a "Member of the Trade" and works for Westone and they can't talk about sound sigs.

He can definitley compare between ES2 and the Westone 3's, it does get stickier when making comparisons with other phones and just best to avoid it altogether.

In this particular forum area (in which the Members of the Trade essentially pay to advertise in the form of discussion threads), the thread-starter (and his co-workers) is allowed to promote his products in his own thread in here, including the discussion of his products' sound signatures.

Yup, I've bought a pair of UM1's to get used to the fit of the UM3's. Pretty excited myself.

Ok right, I'll ask for a comparaison between these two instead!

Would'nt be fair anyway for Etymotic ER4P since they are not as expensive.

Thank you!

Oh duh! I forgot, for some reason I thought this was the headphone forum! Thanks for the clarification jude.

I too would love to hear a comparison, as have been thinking about going down the ES2 path recently.
