Thread Starter 
Its very important to know how these iem's sound on the 64g Itouch with/without EQ)
I will be using CDs as my source and recording in AIFF or ACC I hope I have the formats name correct.
The music selection is Classic Rock/80s music.
My main concern is SOUND Quality.
I have picked these phones because they are very efficient therefore low volume =loud sound.

These are the Iems I want feedback on from people that actually own the shure/64g Itouch.

Thanks
GJ

I own such a combination. You are right about the volume, they are lound. I use mp3Gain set to 93 dB to normalize the volume of my audio collection.
In a quiet environment I sometimes need to set the volume slider to the very minimum, on the aubway I use volume level 2 out of 16 (press volume botton on the side twice).
Get some of your music, album gain it to 93 dB and you'll get a glance of how loud this combination sounds.
SQ without EQ sounds good to me, very neutral. Can't tell you much about EQ though because I never use it.
If you use efficient phones like the SE530 you'll appriciate the touch's low noise floor, they are very unforgiving on noisy players.
