Just wanted to say that Empire Ears were great guys. Got supra 2 non adel ciems from them at canjam NYC (long overdue...I know). One of the cheaper ciems you can get with the discounts, so it was a no brainer. And shockingly they have a great bass response, good enough for pop, electronic..etc...

my vote goes for the klipsch s4, since they're easy to find from a authorized dealer so you can get warranty if they go defective

tell us what you listen too- might narrow stuff down
