Cheapest place to buy Westone UM1 headphones

[mgtitans17]

Right now i am going to get ultimate ears super.fi 3's or westone um1's. Both headphones are supposedly two of the best canalphones for around $100 and this would be my first canal phone purchase. I worried that the super.fi 3's will stick out of my ear to far and if anybody has any pictures of you wearing them i would greatly appreciate it. With a price match i can get these earphone for $76 shipped at earphonesolutions.com by using a price match. The westons um1's would cost me $110 and i dont really want to pay that much. Does anybody know of any retailers that sell the um1's for cheaper than $110 so i can do a pricematch at earphonesolutions.com. I highly recommend that retailer as well and they have very good customer service.

Not too many folks are coming down in the pricing for the Westones because the demand is not as high right now. However, earphonesolutions adds a couple of free perks that might make the pain a little le$$ to bear.

I really am having a tough time deciding between the super.fi 3's and the westone um1's. The SF3's i can get for almost $30 cheaper than the um1's but there isnt a whole lot of info about the SF3's. Im really worried about the SF3's sticking out of my ears to far also. Both headphones though seem to have very good sound quality for there prices.

Ive decided not to get the westone um1's because for a little bit more money i can get the shure E3c's for $125 using the 30% off coupon at earphonesolutions.com. Ive been reading a lot of not so good reviews about the super.fi 3's and i think the shure e3's would be the next step up. How do they compare sound wise to the super.fi 3s? I also listen to a lot of rock/alternative music too so which one would be better for that type of music. I just am not sure if i want to spend $125 on headphones but this would be my first higher quality set of headphones so im sure i would be impressed with either one i chose to get.
