Hey, I just came back from my Hifi Dealer, I compared the AKG K 3003 to an AK T8iE and a sennheiser IE 800, the K3003 sounded far superior to the IE 800 and on par with the AK, the AK had a warmer and richer represantation, but the K 3003 excelled at detail retrieval and Instrument seperation, the stage was also much wider on th k 3003, overall I realized that i have to get used to Iems, especially to the bass, the K3003 sounded more than amazing with Jazz, but i did not like it with EDM at all for some reason. I picked up some extra long ear-tips that also fit better.
