Yes, the W3 is famous for that

I'm surprised. I thought you'd be after the W3's next. The IE8's are huge fun, but with a totally different sound signature to the Phonaks and W3. I know you quite liked the Turbines, but missed the clarity of the Phonaks? Well, I'll bet you one used Comply tip (if I can retrieve it from the cat's bum!) that you prefer the W3 to the IE8. I like the W3 because it sounds like a mix of dynamic and armature, so I get the best of both worlds. Are the W3 and IE8 still priced closely with each other for you?
