Similar sound to Er6i

Yes, i'd say, maybe consider the re0 too if you can live without the awesome isolation (they are quite good with comply tips)

To me, the word musical is misleading and people shouldn't really use it like they do now. What exactly do you mean by musical? I think you mean a specific kind of sound signature.... one that is more prominent in the mids and bass.... which is what I think of when people say musical; something that carries "weight" to the music and helps you feel emotion.

Technically aren't all phones musical? But instead of musical you should probably specify what you mean. Didn't mean to get off topic but... yea... people interpret musical different and you might get different answers.

But to answer your question, the RE0s have great treble, mids, and bass but they don't emphasize on the lower frequencies.

I agree, everyone seems to have a different idea of what 'musical' constitutes so it loses it's credibility.

On topic: If you're asking for a comparison between those three iem's I prefer the re0 and hf5 to the er6i, both have a touch more bass (re0 a bit more) and very sparkly highs. Neither are bass heavy so i think you'd like them. I have tried the er4s but never with an amp so my opinion of those is not very useful, i've never tried the er4p but they are apparently quite similar to the hf5, allbeit with a higher impedance.

No I knew exactly what you were saying, I was just stating that HERE, on these forums, you should be cautious when using that word because a lot of people misinterpret that meaning :/

But yea man, I know you know what you're talking about; and I think the RE0s are a great choice; you'll love them :)

Very detailed and accurate; people state their some of the best phones you can get at that price range.
