First off, great Stern show reference name. I've been a fan for 16 years and probably the ONLY Eric the Midget fan.
1. Well, I've only had the Custom 3's about 2 days now and I am
totally blown away. I sampled the Custom 1 and Custom 2 in Guitar Center and both don't even come close. I feel a little guilty spending $300 on ear buds but they are literally
awesome. Bass is fantastic, not over blown or mushy sounding. Tight, accurate, beautiful deep tones I can feel in my chest. Isolation is great, remember, the tips are actually OVAL shaped and need to be inserted into you ears "vertically". They are not round, FYI. I saw this on a youtube 'Klipsch Tour' before and it is true. As far as IEM's go I went from the cheapo Sony purple around the ear -> Skull Candy smokin buds -> V-Moda Vibes -> Klipsch Custom 3.
2. I bought the Samsung years and years ago. It's only 512MB. At the time I bought that Cowon U2 I wanted something with more space and really made a knee-jerk decision to buy it after reading a cnet review. Not that I'm complaining, it's my favorite player.
