Well I'm fairly new to Chi-fi but have experience in premium IEM's. Lately I've been looking for an IEM with a fun sound which I can use in workout, beach or when going to sleep and which I can substitute for my Campfire Andromeda.
I went with ED16 and I was positively shocked. Great bass with enough rumble and speed, allright mids, but a little piercing highs which can be attenuated with foam tips! Soundstage is OK, detail retrieval and resolution is amazing for the price. I'm really loving them and when I use them, I don't miss my Andromeda "too much". Obviously it would be unfair to compare those.
Anyway, I liked them so much that I'm contemplating on ordering a spare pair. Or should I go for ES4 as well for variety? From what I read, their highs are not as piercing with more forward mids and bass.
I'm looking for a sound with more bass and mids, and less highs than ED16. Although ED16 is very good, ES4 sounds like something I might like as well. So I would appreciate any comments comparing ES4 vs ED16. Thanks in advance
