I just did a 10 min comparison trying to pick up the differences, and basically the earpods have a bit more mid bass. As far as I can tell, sub-bass seems to be better on the Etymotics, but it's hardly noticeable (or maybe my mind is playing games on me!) when you're into the music.
Also, from those ten minutes, I found it really hard to find any differences between the etys and Earpods apart from mid-bass. When I added my P-S cable, I could tell some differences. I believe apple has made a winner here. The mid-bass slightly clouds the vocals (but from my experience, any headphones that have more bass than the etys has this effect like my previous IE8s and triplefis)
The only problem with the earpods is that they don't isolate so it wont sound as good if you're in a noisy environment.
Wow, that's really cool. Can you comment on the bass comparison between the EarPods and etymotics?

Etymotic is said to usually lack subbass? I have the hf5 but now my friend is keeping it...
