Are you sure? I can't find any hint on RC3 - not even in the "about mozilla firefox" box.... The RC3 has an own folder, with an even older timestamp. I guess this is indeed the 1.5 release. Marcus

While the microphonics of the Etys were comparatively bad I have no complaints with regard to my UE-10s. Marcus

Sure, once you know please let me know and I help you out. EDIT: Quote: It would be a big leap for me so i would only be interested in those long term headfi-ers with plenty of postive feedback to vouch for them. Lol, sorry - kind of read over this part.... Best regards, Marcus

Thanks alot for this great review! I can feel your pain trying to carry around multiple components during the daily commute.... I tried different bags, nothing worked well so far and I ended up attaching my DAP (iHP-120) and amp (SM-3) on my belt. Looks like I have a new option at hand - great...

How could I have missed this thread? First of all, congratulations! Luckily you haven't listened to my concerns regarding the ES3 *g*.... Nice review, btw. Looking forward to more impressions as time goes by, I'm curious which IEM will get more listening time in the end. I know you like both...

root, any updates yet? at least, did you get your pair of those new IEMs by now to test them? Marcus

I thought it would never happen to me, I treat my Etys like a goddess - nevertheless the tube of left driver just cracked. As usual I wanted to change the foam tips, removed both from the phones and out of a sudden I saw that half of the tube where the filter sits was gone. Damn it, my UE-10 Pro...
