Thanks for the replies. I looked at the super.fi 5 pro's considering advice that you should just make the big leap and buy the more expensive phones now rather than later. That lasted a few minutes. I realized that the sf5 pros would be similiar in price to my iPod. Despite my desire to have...

I have the e2c's and the sound quality isn't that great. Will the super.fi 3's be better in that regard? Could there be something better? Are they all (e2c, er6i, super.fi 3) just outdated now? Thanks for looking, feel free to reply

Also, I expected to be blown...

Thanks for your help. I just found out that the E2c's do come with the softer black sleeves as well these days.
