Mine was extremely nice and most importantly, knowledgeable. First time was a charm. They've been in my ear since I got them at 9am this morning. So far no tenderness..... |

I only took the W3 with me for the travel... while the W3 sounds good in the airplane and all... when i came back to the ES3X... i was like... OMG...what have I been missing throughout my travel! i cant take another listen to the W3 when i have my ES3X with me. It's that good. And recently I listened to Krypteria - Bloodangel's Cry...it was...a new experience to say the least! I could feel the ambience very well...sorry i dont know how to describe this... i feel as if i m sitting in the middle of a concert hall...from then on...i know nothing would beat the ES3X...at least not anytime soon! I lobe my ES3X! wooohooooo..!! |

For grins, besides listening to my favorite tracks, I also grabbed a hearing test app off of the Apple app store (Unitron Connect - uHear) to see how my test results compared between some other sets and the ES3X's, and I was pleasantly surprised to see an improvement in every way in my test results. I have to admit that I was really concerned that I might be missing too much of that enjoyably, somewhat warm "musical" sound I came to really appreciate with the Shure 530 set. I'm glad to report that this was not a disappointment at all. I was happy enough with my ES3X's that I decided to put up my ATH-A900's and SE530 PTH sets on Ebay tonight to find a new home. I read quite a bit more here than I post, and I take feedback I read from here with a grain of salt because good sound is pretty subjective. I'd say that the characterization of the sound on these in this thread is accurate and I'm very satisfied with the ES3X units. Oh, and my audiologist had me open and close my mouth and move my jaw a bit, especially early on in the setting process and my fit came out perfectly the first time. I went to see Kim Johnson from Professional Hearing Services in Springfield, VA. I paid $750 for my set, which included the cost of taking the impressions. |
