Yeah, the SF5 Pro will blow away the E4c in terms of bass and treble and it doesn't need an amp at all. Even amped, I find it doesn't improve it much, if at all.

The only thing about the SF5 Pro is that it's not as comfortable as Shure IEMs.



do you know which website can i purchase these besides amazon?

thanks

"iem with decent bass $200"

The Future Sonics Atrio M5 (black) and M8 (Blue) exceed your requirements -- the bass is far better than decent, without overwhelming the mids and highs. What's more, they can be obtained for less than your limit (via eBay). Really an impressive sound from these things. They don't require amping and sound very good with iPods, for example.

X2 for the Super.fi 5's. Good balanced sound and excellent prices around for a dual driver earphone. UE's dual bore design leads to smoother more accurate tonal representation.
