Just last week was my first time ever listening to IEM earbuds and my interest is strong enough that I have decided to purchase my own. I sampled the e2c and find that the bass sounded distorted at high volumes. I tried the e3c and it sounded much cleaner and undistorted, bass has also improved. The highs seemed piercing, but it could have just been the song.
My previous experience with earbuds is that they keep breaking on me especially when I crank the volume on songs with lots of bass, so reliability is very important to me.
requirements
- must have strong decent bass and can play low frequencis at high volumes w/o breaking
-e xtremely clear and detailed
- as true to music as possible with just a bit of extra bass I can feel (or have a very flat response curve)
- very comfortable (must not fall off while jogging)
- played out of ipod nano 2gig
- no amp will be used
- put me in music euphoria
from my week of research I have considered the e4c, as it seems to have the best value for its price. Unless someone else more knowledgeable can suggest something else. I am curious about the SE series as well. I remember seeing/trying them at the store but found almost nothing of them here and at ebay.
