I currently have both PXC250 and E2c headphones.
I just love how PXC250 sounds, not that e2c are that bad, but their sound is missing "Freshness" for the lack of better word when compared to PXC250.
Why do I write this message then instead of listening my PXC250?
Well, the downsides of PXC250 imo are:
- The NC stick which leads to uncomfortable setup in portable use
- not enough isolation
- the hissss..
So I've got my self an upgrade-itis... Thinking about getting something to replace my E2cs. Unfortunately I have to make my purchase decisions blind (well deaf) as I know no place offering Shures etc. here in Finland and purchasing them from USA is the cheapest option.
So I've been thinking about E4 or perhaps even E5. Anyone with experience with PXC250 and E4 or E5 (Bangraman??), how would you compare those?
Or some other in ear headphones with PXC250-like sound (nice bass, fresh sound overall), suggestions welcome.
Oh one last thing: No microphonics, at least not more than e2c (do they have any?? Is there non, or is it just me not understanding the term).
