I have the E3's and like them. Haven't compared them with any other. It takes a while to figure out how to get them in your ear correctly but after that it's a way different experience then headphones. I use them with a walkman and can guarantee you'll here sounds on your cd's that you never heard before, It's pretty cool. Just lay off the volume as much as you can. These puppies are a direct connect to your brain and it would be easy to blow an ear drum if your not careful.
