I know there have been many comparison threads for these 2 awesome IEM's. I've read through a lot, but not all of the IE8 and W3 appreciation threads and might have missed a comparison like this.
But which one would be better for Techno/Electronic music?
Will either have enough bass if I leave my A829 bass at 0?
I currently have the bass setting at +2 or +3 for the SA6's which I still don't consider quite enough on most occasions. Especially for bass impact.
The SF5P has more bass quantity, but the sound signature is just not quite what I'm looking for.
Reading through all the threads, it looks like both the IE8 and W3 handle techno very well.
Which one would you choose? "Better" is subjective, so please indicate if you have listened to both and if the IE8's you listened to were burn in. Preferrably for more than 240 hours.
Thanks for all the help. Head-fi is the best. Although my wallet begs to differ.
PS: I have some comply T400 tips that I can use with the IE8's. Does that help with fit/isolation? I know the W3's are suppose to be much better in that department.
