I don't need new IEMs, I don't need new IEMs, I don't need new IEMs, I don't need new IEMs, I don't need new IEMs, I don't need new IEMs, I don't need new IEMs.

Of course you don't need new IEMs. You super duper supercalifragalisticexpialidocious need new IEMs.

I've sworn off IEMs because ER4P, TF10, SE530, UM2s were all underwhelming and isolation is not huge for me.

UM3s would have to at least equal ESW10s in SQ for me to get them really.

Yeah, I've been been burned by IEMs so many times that it is not even remotely close to being funny, but heck, after (trying) to use KSC75 in a windy car and in an airplane, these seem worth a shot.

But since you live in Canada, that Cashback thing doesn't apply to you, sadly enough; that was a HUGE factor for my purchase decision.

The triple.10 Pro is specifically mentioned a few times in this review, and I think in that huge Westone 3 thread as well...Ctrl+F ftw!

The thing is, I either ride my bike to school/work (no IEMs there), or bus to school (I commute with my gf almost every day, so we're either talking or falling asleep together on the bus). The only time I would use them is walking around in school, and I don't need noise attenuation there.

how much was it after cashback?
Also, if I say I love you, can you buy one and ship it for me?

Ah yeah, then the properties of IEMs aren't really a neccesity then, huh....

It was...hold on, gotta find the receipt.

Rounded around, the total was: $280.

Also, sorry but I can't...you know I'm still recovering from what happened.

Well, so is my wallet, in a different sense.

I believe it's spelling is, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. One letter out(your tripping on dreams of Westone 3).

Thank You HeadphoneAddict for a concise personal reading of the W3 phones. One quick question for you though, what is the difference in soundstage between the Limewires and the W3?
