"The ER-4P micropro was released in 1991, that makes the design 26 years old, etymotic probobly went and updated it trough the years, but i ask myself, it's a single driver balanced armature with a basic design which is 16 years old,
is it still competitive with the latest from shure, UE, Futuresonics, Westone...?"
Those were Aevum's words 10 years ago.
10 years after that thread, the same question applies today: is the Etymotic ER-4 still considered the best IEM under 500$?
What are some of today's competitors?
