I'm really looking forward to it and so is the 9/11 panel. Good luck with the review Lindrone! Don't worry about what everyone else thinks, and enjoy the music! |

Despite all the E3 bashing that has passed in the forums since the initial reviews, I still enjoy my decision to return my ER4 and stick with my E3. The E3 is simply more "fun" to listen to in my opinion. They also kick the snot out of Ety's in terms of comfort. If I want a set of phones I can bump around town in, get fun (and reasonably good) sound from, and not have to worry about breaking them, the E3 is it. I also purchased the E5. I love em. All this based on poor, evil, biased Lindrone's reviews. Now to all you who are so worried about bias, and want to cast stones at Lindrone, please feel free to go plunk down $800 for a pair of Sensa's and $1000 for a pair of UE10's, and write us a review. I shall look forward to it. Lindrone contributes much to this forum both financially and in terms of time. I really think he deserves a little more respect. At least give the man a chance to write his review before condemning him as biased. |

And I agree that the fact that he was willing to spend the money on the UE's counts for something. But this arguement has been beaten to death--all I'm interested in at this point is Lindrone's review. |
