Hi Sean, I am planning on buying the SST. And your enthusiastic endorsement has only confirmed my decision. I just didn't buy it right now due to some money constraints. But I will get it as soon as possible. I'm glad you like it. Thanks for the endorsement.

Sean, Thanks for the info. I called the number to the Walker business and ended up ordering the Vivid from one of the businesses they recommended. I ordered the Basic Kit which is less expensive than the regular kit. If this kit does what people are saying it does, then I suspect it will be...

I will be getting a pair of Etymotic ER-4S ear canal phones and am looking to get an amp for around $150.00 or less (but may be willing to go higher). I would like the amp to be portable. I will be using it with a Sony Discman D-E905 and will be using it almost exclusively for classical...

Lou, Thanks for the advice. I have already ordered the Ety 4S. I really don't talk to customers on the phone nor to coworkers that much. If the Etys sound too weak in my Discman 905 then I am willing to go for an inexpensive amp. And if anyone has any suggestions for a good inexpensive amp...
