Music Preferences and Comments: | |
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | More on the rock side of things but it still preforms surprisingly well on classical too. For more music preferences see my Home Headphone system. |
System Goals/Comments: | I use this system around the house and on trips. |
System Strengths: | The ER-6s have great isolation and are very small. The CD-3760 has very good sound and loads of power. Before I got the ER-6s, I would use the CD-3760 to drive my Sennheiser HD-600s to LOUD volume with good sound. |
System Weaknesses: | Bass on the little ER-6s is good but comes nowhere close to that of the HD-600s and the high end errs on the bright side with some tizz. Dispite it's many strengths, the CD-3760 is still just a Radio Shack portable and lacks in resolution, high frequencies, etc... |
Video/HT System: None | |
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: | I am an engineer in a small project studio. I play piano, organ, bass guitar, and some acoustic guitar. I also do a lot of aranging and composition. |
