First of all, this forum is rad.
So here is my situation and I'm looking for advice. I am the worship leader of a rather large church with definitely an edgy rock sound. I'd say that including rehearsals and services, I play a good 6 hrs a week. I am also the singer of a hard rock band as well. For the past two years I've been using e5s through Sennheise g2 wireless system. I'm ready to make the jump to something custom and more high-end. From reading around on this forum, I am between the ES3x and JH 10x3 but have some questions. My budget is in the $800 range, however, I could wonder up to $1k.
From reading reviews on here, I get the sense that many of you mainly are listening to recorded music. Though I will listen to my iPod on occasion, 90% of my iem's use will be stage monitoring. I get the sense that the ES3x is very natural and designed more for stage use, but what about the 10x3, or even the JH11pro.
I'd love to hear some input from musicians who have used them both. Or just one for that matter. And here are some of my criteria.
1. Natural, non-biased
2. comfort
3. workmanship
4. clarity
Also, could someone better explain "soundstage" as I'm having a hard time grasping. Thanks a bunch. This place is cool.
