hey guys
i have a few questions on the UE 5 EB.
i hope i can find the answers here : )

1.
I really like the bass with my SR60 + 4gb Ipod mini
for me, it is deep and impactful
would i find the similar bass with the EB?
(i don't really like the bass on EX71, i find it bloated and boring..)

2.
does it isolate as much as the 5pro?
if not, it is alot less isolation for the EB?
how does the isolation compare to the EX71?

3.
is the low impedance of the EB a issue when mated with the 1st generation ipod mini?


I have a 5pro right now, but i prefer a "funner" canalphone..
so... i'll probably send it back and exchange it for an EB
and i want to make sure that i make the right decision : )

thx

1. much tighter bass than the EX71
2. isolation between EX71 and super.fi 5Pro
3. don't know (fine with my 4G B/W iPod)
