Ok, so here I am again asking for your expertise in the manner of IEMs
Last year I bought 2 pair of Sharps MD33, one pair for my girlfriend (ipod mini) and one pair for me. We all know how women are with electronics
they could care less, so as figured, her MD33 broke (one of the buds stopped working) after taking many hits on the bottom of her bag. So she took my MD33s while I was using my Koss Porta Pros.
But now I want to use IEM:s again, isolates better and more discrete. I could buy another pair of Md33s, but I want IEM:s which isolate more (and fits better). I would want to buy the new Shures (E4c/g/etcetc) but those just cost too much. So Shure E3c/g and Shure E2 are the options for me, or any other bud in the same price range. I have a IFP-999, which I think should Be powerfull enough to use the "full capacity" of the buds (18mW(R) + 18mW(L)). Now I've read really mixed up feelings about the shure E2, some say its great, some say they'r useless and so on, so Iam alittle sceptical. I wouldnt want to buy buds which dont have (atleast) the same sound quality as the MD33s. So then I read about the Shure E3 which have gotten pretty decent reviews but I've read that some think the bass is very weak=?.
I mainly listen to Rock (old school; led zep, gnr, metallica,pink floyd and so on) and Hiphop/rap.
Anybody out there whos gone from MD33s to Shure E2/3, I would appreciate your comments on this manner.
