That's the same reason why I dislike the ER4P the most, the reduced highs. My preference is still the ER4B with Etymotic red filters. With proper deep insertion, the bass on the ER4B is precise and tight though not as warm as the ER4P. I've never found the ER4B's treble over powering which many people complained about....maybe it's because I'm using the red filters. Does the ER4SR even come close to the ER4B with red filters? I love changes as long as it's a good change.
Well, I'll admit that I've never actually measured the ER4Bs with the red filters, although I'm somebody here would've checked years ago during the original development.
The the ER4B actually has more high frequency information than the ER4S although the higher resistance red filter might tame that down slightly (it'd also damper the primary resonance). The ER4SR/XR have similar high frequencies, but they would be closer to the ER4S than the ER4B, at least with the stock filters.
