After reviewing and testing both canal phones (See other posts) my final choice is as follows: It is really similar to when I chose the Shure E5 over the EtyEr4p.
One was very well balnced with great detail,(Very fatiguing to me) Er4P
and one was just plain fun to listen to. Great range, non fatiguing (But not too comfortable for me) E5c
I find the same with these two phones. The shures are very balanced but a little light on the low end and a little fatiguing to me after long listening ( 30 mins or more.)
The UE Super.fi pro are very comfortable, good bass (cant imagine the EB versiopn) with Ipod and "Jazz" Eq very nice clean highs that are not hurting me after 30 mins. of listening.
Some people mentioned that the Shures perform better on the low end from different sources and the Ipod is not one of them. However my source is the Ipod and for the same reasons I chose the E5's afew years ago I choose the UE Super.fi Pro's as the ones to keep. The Shure E4c's will be going back tommorrow.
It was a decision that if I wanted to listen and enjoy the music or be analytical and analyze every song for what I can hear or not hear in it.
Thats it.. decision is final.....unless.................................. .
