go with the er6s. there the most accurate headphoness i've ever heard. plus they block out any outside noises even when the music is off.

I currently own a pair of er6 headphones which do wonders for me when im working in noisy areas. My proble is that I really dont find the sound to be all that great. I also have a pair of grado Sr 60 headphones which i think sound better than the er6's. I also find them irritating my ears...

I've heard that noise cancelling headphones don't really block out outside sound. Instead they trick you're ears into believeing the sound isn't there. If this is true, could heavy amounts of noise damage a persons ears while they were using a set of noise cancelling headphones.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I bought a pair of Er6's yesterday and I also wanted to say thanks for everyones sugestions. Without the help I never would have gotten them. When do get them I'll be sure to let everyone know what I think of them.

I was just wondering what the best headphones people had ever tested and how much they cost$$$$$$$. For me it was the grado Sr 60's which i own. I know what youre thinking I have never experienced what great headphones sound like but thats why I'm curious. And how much better were they than a...

I hear that there is an awful microphnic effect with the Er4's. is it the same thing for the er6??

seems everyone has come up with some great comments but ultimatley from what i've read on this discussion, it comes down to an individuals needs and what they can make the best with the equipment they already have. By the way thanks for all the suggestions I know it's helped a great deal.

I am the most confused person right now. I have been reserching the er6 and er4's for about 2 weeks but I can't decide on one or the other. All hear is that the er4's are unbelivalbe but they would cost more than a weeks paycheck. If A pair of Er6's can give me good bass with the sony Mz S1 then...

I just bought th Mz s1 and I can honestly say it's a great overall MD but i did find a few negatives about it. First of all compared to my old sony Mzr 70, the S1 is louder yet it lacks in bass when I use it at high volumes. I have a pair of grado sr 60's and they completly lack i bass at high...

Just to let everyone know this post if for a friend who wants a new portable player. I actually just bought a new sony mz-s1 MD for myself and I find It great except for the fact that it lacks in bass but other tan that im going to agree with everyone that Md are better than mp3 simply because...

For someone who's always using headphones at work. I was wondering what would sound better, a MD or mp3 player, with a set of Er6 headphones which, by the way I have yet to buy. I also have about a $300 spending limit and don't want to have to use an amp.

I am so close to buying a pair of er6's but im afraid i might regret not getting a set of er4's. my bigest prblem is obviously $$$$$$ I also heard the Er6 doesn't have the greatest bass. I was wondering if a set of Er4's would have great bass as well the good high's and mids.

I currently own a pair of grado sr60's but becasue they don't block out outside sound i cant use them while I ride lawnmowers at my job. I was wondering if the etymotic er6 could match the sound qaulity of the grado sr60 which is being plowered by a minidisc player and also do a good job of...
