Shure E3. When I got them, I didn't know that burn-in exist. First thought was that I paid 200$ for earphones which even don't play better than EX71. After using it for a couple of weeks I made secound comparison. It was great relief

Ety E6...thin and shrill and too difficult to seat in your ears for the quality of music they deliver.

I agree. The Ety ER4Ps sound incredible - even the bass is richer due to...I don't know what - maybe accompanying crispness in the attack? (At least when listening to acoustic jazz, or my digital piano). Vocal music is a great test to hear flatness...lifelike voices are easier to distinguish from unnatural sounding ones than other instruments. And voices sound like real little-people inside my head with these headphones. BUT...they hurt!! Sometimes, attacks are so sharp they make me jump. Even at low volumes, I can hardly wear them, and my ears remain sensitive for nearly a week afterwards (I think they may produce some high-frequency resonance in my ear canals).
