I've given up on my Phonaks, and have decided to replace them and spend a little more.
I'm looking for excellent isolation and comfort and a precise, warm sound with decent soundstage. My music taste is prog rock/metal, folk and classical.
I can get the Westone 3 for ~£260, or alternatvely I could buy the Westone 2 with ACS custom sleeves (~£240). What would be my best option, given comfort and isolation are quite high up on my priority list?
As a final alternative, I may consider custom IE8s, although even with custom sleeves I'm doubtful if the isolation would be particularly good. Again, they are around the £250 mark...
