In classic Head-Fi fashion, I went against all suggestions (and my own initial leanings) and ordered the Metro.fi 2 yesterday. :-)
At $60 price point, I don't think I could have gone wrong with either that or the CK7.
My thinking was: it's the gym. They're canal phones, not true isolating monitors. There's competing noise from the overhead sound system, plus people talking. Thus, I want the one that has more bass and less clear/defined highs. If I have to turn it up too much, that'd be a recipe for a headache in my case.
And of course, if I hate, I can always order something new. :-)
Thanks guys.
