Hello everyone,
I just wanted to formally introduce myself to the community. I have been trawling the boards now for about a month looking for suggestions for my first high quality headphone purchase and on a partially on a lark bought some Shure E3s today from iDealSound. I also bought some Shure E5cs but I will not be getting those until mid-June as I had them shipped to a different location.
I know, I know...sorry about my wallet.
I just had one question for all of you on the forum who have or had the pleasure of owning E3s:
In layman's terms what did I pay for? I can't honestly say that I know the difference between low and mid range bass etc. but I think know when something sounds good. Additionally I like to hear the details behind the music so to speak. Is is possible for some one to put into words what I will experience the first time I put the phones on (which as I read, might be an adventure onto itself)?
I am used to Sony Street Style headphone so these will undoubtedly be better, I was just looking for a quantification as to how much to whet my appetite for their arrival.
Again, it has been nice reading all of your posts in the last month and I hope that you all can teach me to be a audiophile who can recognize the differences in the bass range and so on.
All the best,
Adam
