I actually only love the Marshmallows because they isolate noise! I am... not thrilled with the drowning of the frequencies-otherwise I wouldn't be looking for a higher-end pair of earphones!
So, I don't know...
Let me tell you what I do actually love: The Fatal1ty Headset. It sounds GREAT!

Frederiks-what are RE2s? I can't find them...

Experimentation required. I think Headphonesolutions still offer an IEM 'fitkit' of different tips. I also think that Shure may offer one as well (yes, both are $$$). Good luck and may the best tip win...

Well it sounds like there are so many good things about them, that I won't be disappointed no matter what! However, I just like being 100% confident in my purchases...

Still very open to suggestions and comparisons.
