    SM3 purchasers, question on price

    I've notice on the Earsonics webpage that the SM3 has a price of 288 euros, but when you go to buy it says 345 euros? Did any of you who purchased it notice this too? And if so, which price is it, and when do you  know you're getting the lesser pricer? Just curious. Thanks.

    LiveWire Trips or Earsonics SM3?

    Im looking to upgrade from my UM3x and Im caught between going for some affordable customs, like the Trips, or importing the renowned SM3's. They both will fall into a relatively close price range, so its a toss up between which will sound better that will determine which I buy.    Anybody...

    Poll: How do you wear yours?

    Some of the manufactures may not be aware of how we use their products in real life.  At least one has gone so far as to say they were not designed to be worn in front.  Quote: What do you say? How do you usually wear your monitors?

    What tips do the SM3's use?

    What size Comply tips do they user? TX-400..?   Also, are the stock ones comfortable? They seem like they will hurt my ear because they will go in too deep or something..

    Can I use a laptop as a source without a DAC or AMP?

    I'm thinking about buying either the Westone UM3X or Earsonics SM3 IEMs and would like to listen to them at work powered solely by my Dell E6400. Also, I'd probably plug them into my HP dv7t at home, as well. Are these laptops good enough sources to properly drive these earphones?   THANKS!

    Westone UM3X vs. Earsonics SM3

    Been reading tons of reviews on these two top of the line IEMs and can't make a decision. Head-Fi seems to absolutely love the SM3's, but I'm getting a lot of love for the UM3X's as well. What do you guys think? The $70 or so difference doesn't matter to me and I'd get either phones just as...

    EarSonics SM3 Universal Fit IEM

    -The SM3 pushes further the limits already infected with SM2 on universal in-ears. More ventilation and a wider sound image, with more tense low frequencies and treble with incredible finesse. All this with the strict neutrality faithful to EarSonics. spécifications: Sensibilité: 122 dB/mW...
