Hi,
I've read all the reviews, but still can't decide which of these two to buy. There's both available for about $150 on Amazon:
1. The Phonak PFE w/ mic
2. The UE 700 (or the Phiaton PS200, which some say is better than UE700)
PFE has amazing reviews everywhere. On the other hand, the UE 700, with its dual armature, is probably a higher-end IEM. UE 700 also will probably have better build and isolation than the PFEs...however, with the UE700, opinions seem more divided: for every 3 people who love them, there's another guy saying it sucks. The PFEs, in contrast, seem to enjoy universal acclaim.
I have the exact same situation as a recent poster who wrote,
"I am looking to supplement my Panasonic earphones with a pair which isolate better. I like bass which is more impactful than Etymotics but not boomy (just impact when the recording requires it, punchy if you like), detailed highs but not piercing. Am thinking of U700 or Phiaton PS200, which is better?"
Any input for a tie breaker would be very much appreciated, thanks.
