Is this the best option? Could you direct me to other IEM's that might be better


Depends on what you mean by club-like and how much you are willing to spend. The EPH-100 is great for a bass-heavy (but not overly bassy) sound with good mids and a good sense of space, especially for the price. If that's what you want by all means go for it.

Joker,

 

Great post, thanks for the effort.

 

My Brainwavz M3s (which I quite liked) went bust after 1.5 years so I'm looking for a replacement. I'd like to stay around the $100 price range, though I would consider $150 for the right set. I like a balanced sound to reflect a rather broad music collection. 

 

Any thoughts?

I wonder what made the M3s always so much more expensive

The Dunu Tai Chi reminded me of the M3 when I was listening to it. If you're willing to live with a little less bass body than with the M3, the Meelec A161P may be a good option as well.

Joker,

Thanks for the recommendation on the Philips she3580.  I decided to go with them instead of the JVC FX40 and I really like the Philips. They are a nice companion to my Panasonic hje120s.  Totally different sound.

Agreed.  I still like the HJE120, but they have a darker sound overall and the treble sounds muffled.  The SHE3580 are much better for the music that I listen to most often.  I'm impressed with how powerful the bass can get on the SHE3580 and the treble sound great compared to the HJE120.

Yo joker!! When will you possibly have the HiFiman RE-400 review up? Interested to read your take on them. I got them without your consent. I know it's blasphemy but I couldn't resist!! Sold my JVC HA-FX700 to make room for them.

I'm looking forward to this review as well.  I think he mentioned a week or so a few pages back.

Still just burning it in. It'll be around 2-3 weeks, most likely.

I thin that was the VC02 from VSonic.

Joker,

 

What would be a good upgrade from W4? I love the overall sound signature but would like to have slightly more rumbling bass. Thanks!
