I can say, for a fact, that I thought the IE8 sounded just as clear as my MTPC. The only things that I didn't like were: the laid-back sound signature, the fact that getting a tight seal was pretty iffy all of the time, and I didn't really like the mid-bass hump; though, I did end up EQing it out...
I don't see how you can say they aren't clear, unless you have the bass dialed up all the way. The dial on the lowest notch, to my ears, doesn't extend into the mids, thus retaining clarity. From memory, the treble seemed pretty good too.
Unfortunately, I never received my MD from a trade, for my IE8, through HF (I assume he stole them...), so I can't compare the two.
