I think that what you should do is just trying them with and without eq, If your player is up to the task you should not need to eq.
Alright then, shall leave it off. Btw, is there any downside to UM3X being targetted to musicians on stage? Would it be a downside for casual listening?

I have not found any downside using the UM3x for casual listening. I think the demand for sound quality is the same for either application, on stage or personal audio.

I'm considering getting a portable amp for my um3x. Would it make a big difference compared to standard headphone out? If yes, What Would be the best amp to use for these. Good quality buy reasonable value.
Are they really targeting at musicians on stage with the UM3x? I thought only the customs are.
I think the only downside would be if you don't like IEMs with flat frequency response.

Jumping in here, thinking of buying a set of these. Presently have the 535's and the W3's. Both phenominal, but the Shures are a little too bright at times, and actually drown out the highs from excessive mids (although VERY beautiful). But from what I understand these aren't flat right? from what i read, the UM3X is more mid forward, (which is what I want). I'm wondering if these would be better for me than my 535's
I have the SE530 and these. They are neutral leaning on mid centric but definitely not "forward" or anything. They are quite balanced throughout the spectrum with better bass punch than the Shure and most BA IEMs I've heard. You will probably love them and they would fit in the middle of the Shure and W3 sound sig
I have used different portable amps with UM3X and concluded that the differences are only marginal and I didn't think that difference would justify keeping one. What is your source? If it is something like Cowon players, you certainly don't need an amp as they have an outstanding sound. Some people will think differently but I think you should spend the money on your source and not on the amp when it comes to drive UM3xs, they are very efficient and easy to drive.
