best in ear monitors


My search for great headphones has lead me to consider some in ear monitors. Anyone have experience with both the Shure SE530 and the Westone UM2? I'd appreciate any thoughts.

Thanks

Just a word of warning - the frequency response of IEM's (and headphones in general) is VERY dependent on the impedance curve of the unit, and of the amplifier. I saw a test recently where the frequency response can very by 3dB just by changing the amplifier. You should pay little heed to what people are saying on the net and concentrate on finding monitors that are known good combinations, or will work with what you have.
