RE0 vs. Etymotic mc5 mini
Well, none of the supplied tips with MC5 worked for me or sounded any good. But things changed when I got Shure grey soft flex tips on them. I now prefer MC5 over RE0 unamped out of my Fuze. MC5 has better bass extension and presence, fuller mids and comparable treble. I don't find MC5 any less...- aconteceu

Which in ear to replace UE Superfi 5 ??
Wear them with the cable up and behind your ears, that should significantly reduce microphonics. Most earphones when worn cable straight down will have some cable noise.- aconteceu

Comparison between RE0 and Fischer Audio Silver Bullet
SB has a lot more bass, a bit more forward fuller mids, much larger soundstage and less detailed and extended (but still very good) highs.- aconteceu

IEM's with powerful bass, large soundstage, sparkly treble
I'd take Silver Bullet over Eterna for better soundstage and treble. The bass is still great.- aconteceu

Best smooth sounding IEM under $100
Eterna is somewhat excessive with bass and has darker treble, imho.- aconteceu

IEM between $40-$75 - basshead
Etymotic Research ER6i, UE Super 5v or Super 4 are not going to be bassy enough for a bass head. Neither will Rain, probably. I'd look into TS01 over Rain. Eterna is a good choice. Meelec M11+ is very bassy too, while retaining good mids and highs.- aconteceu
