Hi - the HF5 is the earpiece only version of the hf3, which has a m ic built in. Audio quality is the same for both. I've used the hf3 for years and would love another, since I lost my last pair. The best part about them was that i had a high fidelity headphone that doubled as a headset which was very useful when driving in my non-bluetooth car. Maybe someone could explain the choice of the hf5 over the 3. I'd buy one in a second if it was the headset version. By the way, the sound is excellent and well worth the money.
Also, the list price for the hf5, the actual price you can buy them for from etymotic themselves, is $129, not $149. Why does Massdrop inflate the MSRP of their products? Isn't the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price what they themselves sell the product for?

dmm108Massdrop wants to portray how big a favour it is when you do business with them :-)
Welcome to the world of (unrealistic) marketing!

dmm108probably because they would need to do multi listings for the hf2, hf3 and hf5 since the hf2 and 3 are for apple or non-apple phones, the hf5 works on all, so no dealing with fuckups or multi listings, since most companies i have delt with only give the best discounts when buy more units of the same sku/model rather hten just based on total units.
i agree i would like to see the non-apple ver on sale but, amazon puts them on sale for prices like this a couple times a year at least... no wait... so..yeah... the pl50's where a great buy though ;)
