I thought its still a pretty good IEM??? |

I have listened to 5 or 6 different multi-driver designs, and uniformly they have emphasized the frequency extremes. They have all lacked a certain degree of top to bottom coherence that single driver designs tend to exhibit. This does not mean that there cannot be great sounding multi-driver systems, just that based upon my empirical experience it’s less likely than with a single driver system. The Ety’s have been around forever, so I have little doubt that at this point they could be updated and thereby improved dramatically. |

Consider how few people have even heard the UE-10 for example. Remember too that the E500 just released; very few people (relatively speaking) have heard them. |

I find the E4 to be more detailed |
