Nevermorez, you did the right choice. I had a decent pair of Sennheiser HD490, and one day i justed stumpled against this site. I read for hours and hours, and suddenly i just realized that my best choice of audioequipment would be the ER-4P.
- Portable, but just as good, or even better at home (make the cord go around your ear to avoid microphonics)
- Amazing sound, neutral and real all the way from deep bass to the highest highs
- Silent for others (god for listening when your girlfriend wants to sleep)
- Convert ER-4P to ER-4S when needed with a $20 cable
Ive got the ER-4P with my iPod for 4 weeks now. An outstanding ultraportable combo. In the beginning i thought... well they are not that amazing... i hated microphonics, and they did not seem to fit well in my ear. After 2 weeks of use or so, i got used to the silicone plugs, and i dont seem to hear any microphonics - probably since i roll the cord backwards over my ears now. The ER-4P is the best earphone you will ever get - and i have never heard anything as natural sounding as the ER-4P (i havent heard the ER-4S yet, i must admit!)
You did a great choice.
