Hey oarnura, have you tried different tips yet?
And Jonathan, any changes in impressions so far?

What's so hard to understand about comparing something that you or I could buy right now for one price to another thing at a similar price that I could also buy right now? It would be one thing if the pricing on the er6i was a fluke and is normally sold at $150 everywhere but this isn't the case! The er6i is available from multiple places with renewing inventories at $50-80 dollars. BTW the MSRP doesn't have to be a direct reflection of the materials, R&D, design, or whatever else that's put into it. The Bose example is completely valid. Thanks for the review jonathanjong. I've been considering purchasing these for my gf later but now I'm looking at those shures as that is a fluke deal that shouldn't be passed up! |

I asked them if they would honor my order even if they run out of the SCL4. Here is what they had to say: "I did overlook your order for you, and of course it will be honored by us, as soon as we receive it in our warehouse we will send it right out to you. As for the date 1/12/09, that is just an estimated date so it really just depends on if that is in fact when we receive them in our warehouse. But like i said when we do get them we will send it right out to you." I don't mind waiting for two weeks, but I'm afraid that the more they make me wait the more I will expect from the SQ. That is to say I might be disappointed in the SQ. These'd better sound better than the ADDIEM. Otherwise I think I'm gonna have to jump off the bridge |

Given the shaky financials afoot in the world today even a slight return on an investment is something to behold. I should know. I own AIG, GM and Jennison stock. |

Originally Posted by jmpage2 /img/forum/go_quote.gif They just don't have much presence, and sound a bit muffled to me. Initially I thought they were seriously lacking in the bass department but they do have a bit of punch to them after working on getting a good fit with them. Still not the smooth bass response I like for listening to rock/pop music. |
I've also noticed that these have gotten weak reviews across the board. iLounge gave them a B+ and I think CNET gave them about 3/5 stars. |
