So long story short, one of the wires on my E4's has a short (haha), and I am way out of warranty. I'm considering either the Westone 3 or UM3X; I'm hesitant to go with Shure again due to the cable problem, even if the new SE535 has a detachable cable...
Anyway, I've searched a lot on this comparison, but I still haven't been able to discern which sound signature I would prefer of the two Westones. I really like the way my Shures sound, but they don't have enough bass (that being said, I'm not a basshead either; I just want strong punch).
I listen to a lot of house, downtempo, chillout, jazz, general instrumental, ambient, rock, etc....
I know the UM3X's are more accurate, but I don't know if I want that. Are the E4's considered accurate? Are there any guidelines that would allow me to make an educated purchase without trying them out, or would it be safe, in this case, to take a shot in the dark?
Thanks.
