As far as portable IEM's I've been pretty happy for the last couple of years with Apple's own IEMs - wondering if the C5 are worth upgrading in that category

seems like this thread went dead a while ago... anyway like a poster above I am tempted by the IM because unlike most other pieces of equipment I could get it from a brick and mortar shop in my town. I really enjoy the uDAC-2 paired with my B&W P5s, which I find sound a bit lifeless when plugged...

this might have been tackled elsewhere but I wonder if the P5s would benefit from a portable amp coupled with an iphone, as they are marketed as low-impedence and ready for mobile use.  

this makes perfect sense - hope it delivers. this could be exactly what I've been looking for

I got these a month ago and so far have been a bit underwhelmed, although they might need some more burning in. I'm curious to hear about people's experience with EQ fiddling. I'm using them with an iPhone mostly, which is one of the main reasons I got them (for the mic and remote controls)...
