Interesting - the Ety adapter is 75, so why not that impedance?
Ok well, the Green House GH-ERC-MB isn't identical to the Etymotic ER-4P, if it was that would be terrific, and then yes you could indeed use a 75 ohm adapter as in the case of ER-4P to ER-4S.
I had some
new toy effect with the resistors yesterday, it's not as good sounding as my Etymotic ER-4B, sorry!
I just felt like discovering something nice since I'm a new member. In truth, my
Green House GH-ERC-DMS is the real discovery.
After yesterdays and this mornings listening session, I'm actually very skeptical now the GH-ERC-MB uses the ED-29689 driver. However, I feel confident the GH-ERC-DMS uses the TWFK driver, I can
hear that.
There are four types of resistance in respect to an IEM; output, cable, driver and filter, cable resistance causes crosstalk issues, which gave that imaging goodness I called voices in the head, which it does, this is also a trick in some custom IEM cables. After a while I noticed it's not
real imaging, the TWFK is better at that.

I'm wondering the same. Also wondering why the 50 was initially recommend when the 150 is "the best"
I have access to a 50 and 100 ohm resistor, the 50 tilts the treble better than the 100, but when I connected them yesterday into 150 I was impressed and that became my new recommendation, which it still is.
Although, apart from the novel and unique sound of the GH-ERC-MB with 150 ohm resistance, which I'm happy I have on file, the
GH-ERC-DMS is my
real recommendation if you want to slay the expensive IEM villains. The resistors - as with most IEM's - are not useful with the GH-ERC-DMS.
The MB with 150 also has less bass than the already bass light ER-4B. This thread seems to like bass, so I duly retract my recommendations forthwith from your stereosphere.
