Every time I've thought of buying a set of >$100 IEM's I stopped because I feared I would snag them on something and BAM I'm out $200, when 200$ cans would've taken the hit, or at least been repairable. But it's time for me to bite the bullet. I have owned the Etymotic Research ER-6's (not the 6i's) unfortunately I accidentally threw them out (another reason I'm not too hot on IEM's) That's it for any considerable iem's. I own Zagg Zbuds, Iskin cerulean X1's and MadCatz airdrive's.
I was thinking of buying Etymotic Research ER-4s's (I like my music accurate) and sometime down the line having custom molded tips made for them, (I dont like those custom IEMs cause if they die the whole things are toast, this way if the ER-4s eat it I can use the tips on another set)
any suggestions? I'm most likely NOT going to spend over 300$ when I buy a set (there are a few things in line ahead of them
among them a Lisa III amp and HD800 cans, and possibly a pair of Grado RS-1's) I plan on buying an amp suited for the iem's most likely a Headstage Arrow (please don't mention the pico slim, I've read enough about it, I'd rather have an arrow)
Any suggestions?
ALSO WONDERING: Does anyone here own the Westone ES3x's? How much did they run you? Are yours acrylic?
Thank you!
