I once owned a Creative earbud too and guess that would be the only one from Creative in my life. I bought M4 1 year ago and I love it. The soundstage and vocal voice is awesome. I haven't tried M5 but reading some reviews about it, I have to say to trade those for M5's pros is not a wise choice.

Quote: I actually ordered a portable amp as well, so I think that review gives positive points on my phone.
