Just thought of another notion... hey Bangra, when you tested these phones in portable settings, did you test them with uncompressed files?
There's at least one handy new format capable of supporting uncompressed audio at CD bitrates and compressed at higher-than-CD sound quality (although recorded material in this format may not yet be available this year). |

Originally posted by lindrone E2c will give you an idea for what type of sound you can get, but you'll be doing a lot more fussing with the fitting and trying to get good sound out of them. ER-6 is more consistent in this manner, but either choice will have you yearning for more before you know it. |
Originally posted by NewSc2 Hi Bangraman - thanks for your review Couple questions - I didn't really like how you defined the E3c was a better portable earphone. If I'm walking around and not paying much attention to music, my iPod earbuds sound good. It's only when I bring them home and compare it side by side with other headphones that I realize its weaknesses. Is the E3c a very comparable headphone to the ER-4P's during critical listening? Is the sound quality comparable on both? The E3c's sound like the perfect headphone for me (I use my iPod strictly for portable), but I've read a couple bad reviews about the E2c so I'm hesitant. Since I've never heard the Ety's, how would you rate the E3c's sound quality with other phones? (I'm pretty familiar with the Sennheiser/Grado line) Thanks again! |
