Got my pair of ER3SE today, maybe somebody will be interested in the opinion of a person who never listens etymotic's.
Here is a package, somebody mentioned that they changed something, here is how my is looking:
Build and comfort:
1. The bodies of headphones are much smaller than I thought.
2. Easily go till the very end in my ears, without any discomfort (my wife is shocked how deep something can go in our ears
))) ).
3. But, get them back is not so easy, still searching for a way how to do this properly.
4. Eartips for some reason are very rigid and edges pretty sharp, doesn't look like silicon at all (I'm using smaller ones, darker color).
I have at home some other tri-flange ear tips and they are so much softer but of course, don't fit at all on a tiny nozzle.
5. Cable is very soft and I like it, but very microphonic, but after insertion, I've put it over-ear and this effect almost disappears.
6. For sure I dont want to buy now another cable, it should be soft, now I understand why. So will go with original with 2.5mm connector (it so expensive
).
Sound:
I like it, hard to explain everything with my level of English, but Im happy with it and main goal, very good sound isolation, is achieved for sure.
Now I need only to find good ear tips, somebody know is old gray original etymotic ear tips also so rigid? Or they soft? Looks like its only one options in my country to buy. Also I can buy Spinfit CP800, what do you think about them?
