Where? I can't seem to find them... what's the seller's name?

edit: nevermind I see it

 

[arevalo]

VERY tempting but I may just wait for the Westone 3s..

this is killing me!


I'm sure alot of people will appreciate this, thanks for the heads up!!

 

[TheNew007]

[Jamfan16]

I assume this is what he's referring to.

 

[only500made]

yeah, but the shipping is at butt-rape cost.

$399 msrp and from what I've been seeing alot of people who have 'tested' the Westone 3's seem to like 'em better. That's def opinionated but I am not fortunate enough to buy both to see which one I'd like to keep. From reviews, the Westone 3's seem to have the upper hand so far and I can certainly wait and shell out extra if it's worth it.

I'm think I'm set on waiting for full review and comparisons once it comes out.

$20 for shipping is ridiculous.

head-fi is evil.

true dat, but (no pun intended), it was lubricated by the insurance included

How would you compare these to the ER-4Ps for classical music?

 

[arevalo]

Just voicing an opinion, no experience with either but would go with ER4P's for classical.

They are said to be more natural sounding and accurate while the E500's seem to have more color.

I have the ER4-S and let me tell you, classical music sounds absolutely mind-blowing with these IEMS. Today I listened to Beethoven's late quartets by Julliard while drinking coffee at Starbucks...I thought I was in heaven. Too bad I have to ship these out soon due to a trade I made for e500s. I have a feeling I'll be regretting this trade and will soon find myself buying a new pair of these.

Bugger. I just bought the SE530 for $349 on friday...

Although, at least mine is an authorised dealer and I have peace of mind...

Thanks for the advice. I'm just deciding which ones to get - the original plan was and still is to go for the Etymotics, but I've heard great things about the e500's as well, so I wasn't sure.
