Hmm so tempting

Ughhhh…My wallet took a beating today with the purchase of the Westone W40’s and now the Etymotic ES4SR’s. I’m a sucker for reference tuning and look forward to listening to strings, vocals, piano, and acoustic stuff with the Ety’s. Hopefully the W40’s will be musical enough with a solid bass tuning for the Mrs. as she enjoys her Pop and R&B.

i used to have the w4s, and im confident the w40s will be to her liking pretty comfy too

The ER4SR is currently listed for $119.99 on Adorama. Best isolation of any IEMs with slightly less bass than the ER4XR (and $10 cheaper).

Damn! Someone used my credit card and ordered the W80s. Must have been my evil twin

Tempting, but that vaguely alien probe form factor vibe the Etymotic have going is a bit off-putting…

Triple flanges didn't thrill me but the Etymotic gray foamies are very comfortable for me. Shure's yellow foams, slightly shorter, also fit.

I'm guessing they sold out fast, not seeing Gramophone as a buying option.....love my XC's, this would be a good price for the new design.

If anyone got the W80's and regrets their decision, I'd take it off your hands. I accidentally convinced my mom to get one but the sale has ended. There are a few open box returns at the same price + $10 if anyone is still looking to get a W80.

EDIT - Oh and as suspected, there's a new "W80 Lite" on sale for $1299. Still comes with the ALO cable and BT cable. Fewer tips. Not sure what else changed to validate the price drop.

Wow. I have the 4-band Loki... Did not even know the 6-band Lokius existed... Definitely want to add one to my balanced stack...
