I want to replace my bang and olufsen earphones. I need something that's good all around (bass middle high) pitches. I'm considering the etymotic er-4p, but I heard the bass is not that great. Any good recommendations? Please state the pros and cons of them.
Thx.

I've got the Sennheiser HD 650: http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/home_...?Open&row=2. They are excellent.
Better yet but more expensive, though is the Sennheiser HD 800: http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/home_...?Open&row=2

but I'm looking for earphones, not headphones. They're too big.I have one model down from that -- the gamer's version of the SE420s. They are very good.

Vlad, I love the design but I could use better sound isolation and bass.
You own a pair too so I'm sure u know wut I'm saying.

My advice to you is, find some better pads for the B&O's - so that the "insulation" of the earbud inside the ear is more air-tight and that is it. I seriously doubt you'll find a better set, but if you do, please let me know - I'd probably pick up a set myself, unless its ridiculously expensive

I've got the Shure SE210's and they are brilliant. You start to hear stuff on tunes you've not heard before.
Highly Recommended

I had a pair of Superfi 5pro. Gave them to my cousin. They were fantastic while I used them.
Although, they did lack bass a little bit.
I suppose you could go with the "extended bass" version.

I have Ultimate Ears as well. Very good, and not too pricey.
