Hey, The dacmagic is the heart of my home setup. So I would mostly use the stepdance there (the dacmagic nor my preamp neither my poweramp have a headphone output). I would only use the stepdance on the road if it would sound good with the iphone 4. Note that I dont have the sm3 yet, will be here in a few days. I only have the final audio design sb at this time as iem. Greetings, Anouk,
Let us know what you decide to get and how you like it!

I know I'm posting this in the SM3 forum hence there will be a little bias, though I want to ask.
What made you guys choose the SM3 over the UM3x?
Thanks! any advice/suggestions would be great as one of these 2 IEM's will be my only purchase for the next 6 months! :O , I posted pretty much the same question like this in the UM3x appreciation thread. If you guys could help me out it'd be great!
I hear the SM3 as having a much more open and spacious sound compared to the UM3X. Also, I thought the UM3X sounded a little boring vs. the SM3. I know a few people that feel the opposite, and some that don't like either I don't know why, but I hear all the Westone products as having a constricted soundstage, but other than that they are good products. However, I prefer spacious sound over just about all other qualities, for example I chose the IE8 over the W3.
