Blues 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2007 Hi, for those who have the new batch of er-4p .. the one with braided cables. how bad is the microphonic? I had the old etymotic batch and they're very microphonic. Not too sure about now. I am thinking of getting it, so need some opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Absolute0 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2007 I have the newest version in black and it is markedly less microphonic than its blue & red-coloured predecessor. With the help of the clip, the problem can almost be eliminated entirely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
