Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I used to rock a HeadRoom BitHead which has broken and gone unreplaced for a few years now. I'm using Klipsch S4i's on my Iphone 3GS, and I felt the earbuds needed more juice to round out the potential.
The E1 fit the bill nicely. It combines LOD with enough amplification to make the sound significantly warmer and with deeper soundstage. It's hard for me to explain further, because I'm an amateur audiophile. But I know what sounds more natural and the E1 delivers a significantly more pleasurable listening experience. It feels like there's more space and depth to the music than just through the line out on the Iphone.
Someday, when I have more money and arm strength, I'll get another BitHead. Till then, I'll use the E1 and watch the battery life drain a bit faster than usual (obviously, the E1 draws power from the Iphone to operate its circuitry, so expect faster battery depletion).
Other users noted the cord is too long; I don't mind so far, I just keep it looped up as it was on arrival. Another noted design flaw are the easily depressed navigation buttons, but that hasn't been a problem for me.
$20 + small size + better audio quality = SWEEEEET.
