The most important thing in this hobby, sit down with a nice drink and enjoy the music. =]

My impressions of ER4B:

-very tamed highs(not as exciting anymore for those who loves the original highs of er4p/s)
-soundstage was much widened and very 3D
-BRAIDED WIRES!! WOOT
- finally,improved jack too.

Wonderful and impressive ER4B! The ambience of the ER4B is more panoramic compared to ER4P/S. Image clarity is superb! :)
If impressing/being impressed is how it gets you around, forget it. It is not gonna happen.

If you fancy crystal clear and wide sounds, you cant go wrong with this pair of IEMs... for its price it definitely sounds like a good pair of headphones without the bulk.

congratz Ryner on the good buy.. I was quite tempted to get one upon hearing it

The ER4Bs seem real rare compared to the P/S cousins. Heard that they were rather bright sounding though, though that doesn't seem the case.

Anyone tried them with binaural recordings?

well, i think jaben can bring them in. but it'll take awhile and must really confirm buy as these are quite hard to push (i think). the 4p/s sells quite fast tho, but maybe because he only brings in afew at a time. the westones / ue's seem to move faster.
