Hi all,
in few months I want buy some IEMs. I was decided to go for JH5PRO, because I love Jerry Harvey´s work. But then I start to read about new earsonic sm3.
What is better for me ? My last IEMs was Ety ER-4P and their sound was good for my, but I want somethink better with very neutral sounding. I will use it with sandisk sansa clip + or sansa fuze.
Can anybody help me to choose ? Thanks and sorry for my English.

How much money you have to spend (budget)?
 
Here is a great review where you can read the comparison of 4 top tiers (most expensive and best of universal IEM according to James444)

Good luck in your search

My budget is max. 450€/560USD. I want customs so much, but that SM3 looks great too and I can´t decide. I don´t want other universal IEM. Price for SM3 for me is 390€ and for JH5 with everything and maybe with duty it will be 400-500€.

No other help ? Is there someone who can recommend JH5, or someone who hear K701 and SM3 ? I want somethink with good details, fast bass but not much strong and with good highs and instrument separation.

Take a look at my thread.

I've had mine for a month or two now and I'm absolutely pleased in every way. I haven't heard the SM3's but you can't go wrong with the JH-5's.

Based on the reviews, the SM3 won't sound anything like what you say you're looking for.
It sounds like you want a ck10 or dba-02. Go read some reviews, if it's not too difficult.
