My ER4P is about here.

NO COMPARISON.

Fierce,
Do you find the e500 benefits significantly with the Hornet or do you use it mainly because you have it?

Ps I should have my e500s in a few days and I'm considering a Hornet but I'm not sure it's a neccessity.

 

[fierce_freak]

^ agreed, but admittedly this is only with a brief listen of the ety

ok, so I just tried my E500 and I was amazed. Sound is so pure and live and the bass is just about right its not too much and not too little. I had my shure e5c which were good but compared to E500s there is no comparison. I just listened to it for 15 minutes and was blown away. I am waiting for my superfi 5 pro eb to come sometime today or tomorrow and will do a comparison between those two as well and give my impressions. PTH device works well but its of no use to me and most likely will be selling it soon. Isolation is great, i just tried it with the soft black sleeves that were already on it and will try the foamies later on too.

It's just hard for me to justify the cost of these headphones and even though they are worth every penny I feel like I should have waited until price were lowered a little. Anyways, in conclusion, these are amazing sounding IEMs better then anything else I have tried so far. I can't wait to get my cowon A2 to see how they sound with them.

Just got my e500 several days ago.
compare with my er4s(with hornet), the e500(with hornet) sounds as detail as er4s but sounds warm and easier to listen than er4s~

 

[wakeride74]

Finally got them! I will reserve detailed opinions until I have had some time with them but I will say out of the box the balance, detail, and clarity are very big strengths with the E500.

 

[nycheadphones]

Glad they came in! The one thing about my E500s that I am not sure of is the balance...are there any special techniques to make sure that the sound levels are equal on both sides (and across frequencies!) when using IEMs (for example a demo sound file)?

Thanks!

u suck...

I'm assuming the extension cable is used if you want to bypass the Push-To-Hear device? These look pretty nice, and probably come at the worst timing too. Right when I'm thinking of getting back into IEM's

If I may ask, what are you guys paying for yours?

 

[nycheadphones]

$500 - comes with a 3ft, and about 1/2 foot cable...the PTH device is its own extension cable...don't use it much...probably 3ft too

 

[SptsNaz]

Man, these IEM's seem like the real deal. Very tempting I must say
