cRaZy?!

Is it crazy to want your music to be a transcendent experience? Is it crazy to spend more time and energy seeking this elusive treasure than actually listening to your music? Upon finally purchasing your latest audiological wonder, is it crazy to pour syrup on them and chew them for several hours for burn in? Is it so crazy to sit in an empty bathtub without your W3 earphones, covered in your own feces, crying that you can't hear your iPOD even though the volume is at max? Well Mister, then, I guess I'm crazy. Of course, that's what they said about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Now hurry up and respond. I'm getting impatient.

the westone 3 hasn't been released yet. they showed it at a couple of shows and some folks there got to listen to prototypes. so right now we just have some early impressions. why don't you preorder a set and once you get 'em write a review for us to chew on.

I know that. I was hoping some of the folks who got to listen, and also own E500's would chime in with a little more detail about the two then has already been given.

Quick Qustion:

How are the drivers going to be set up in the Universal version? Will they be like the Shure e500 with two drivers on the buttom and one on the top? Because if that is the case, unlike the e500s that have two woffers and one tweeter, the 3 would have the mids and the base coming from the same location, wich could lead to the bass drowning out the mids or vice versa. Is this going to be a problem with complicated music?

am I missing something? has this been covered?

Please Note: The ES3 features an intentional bump in the midrange frequency response that is of great benefit to vocalists and guitarists who perform onstage. Therefore, the ES3 is not the best choice for listening to recorded music. If this is your goal, you'll be more interested in the ES2 or ES1.

ES3 =/= UM3.

the UM3 isnt released yet thats what this thread is about the ES3 is not the same as the UM3. The custom version of the UM3 won't be out till the summer while the UM3 should be released this month.
