I know that the er4p does well with classical and female vocal.But before I buy it,I want to know how does er4p go with pop,rock,heavy metal and male vocal?

The ER4P might work fine for you depending on the source/amp. Bass boost is nice. Which tips you use will also be a factor. IMO.

I can enjoy the ER4P with pretty much any genre but tweaking with a good EQ is nice(like Rockbox) or using an amp with bass boost. My XM5 with 6dB boost @ 100 Hz. does wonders.

X2. They really need a good amp.

Might as well go with the S if you need an amp, no?

Some people actually prefer the "P" instead. I tend to change my preference...which is easy to do with the +75 Ohm switch on my XM5 w/ ER4P.

I like to recommend the ER4P so the user has both options.

Just get the P and get the plug that changes it. Only costs 20 bucks and is very small.

On lack of the quantity of bass,I suspect the er4p will go with the pop,rock,heavy metal and male vocal.

Bass is so ridiculously overrated. I'll tell you that the ER4p makes a good rock/metal IEM, it's one of the fastest IEMs out there. I would in fact argue that they make better rock/metal IEMs than classical IEMs, I find the lack of soundstage to be irritating, especially compared to the SA6 I used to own.

Yes indeed the 4p sound fantastic with rock and metal and imo they do not need an amp at all.
I have no idea why some say bass is lacking and needs to be boosted,even from a low power dap the bass is perfect.
There are iem's that are different but there isn't anything "better".
