My W3s and Sony S639f just arrived. I'm listening to Yann Tiersen at the moment on my Sansa Clip. It's a poor quality file, so I'm just toying around wile I rip some CDs and charge the Sony. The W3s are a little tricky for me to evaluate at the moment because this is the first IEM I've ever purchased. I'm having a little trouble finding tips that fit well and aren't too uncomfortable. So far I can say that these phones give a certain weight to the music that others have mentioned. A very nice, warm, lush sound. Also, I don't recommend pairing these with a Fiio E3. I tried the amp out with my Clip and felt that it bloated the bass too much and generally muddied things up across the spectrum. More impressions to follow...
*UPDATE*
The small gray silicone tips = win. Michna - Swiss Glide....fantastic. I haven't heard bass this good in a headphone, ever. This is coming from the HFI-780 and Denon D2000 as my references. Every minute this IEM gets better.
