Finding suitable headphones take 3 : please help me out to make this one successfull

[rawashdeh]

Ok , After doing a bit of research I think my next upgrade will be an Ultimate Ear Super fi 5pro as they are easy to drive and I have read a lot of positive reviews about them.

My recent headphone history included Sennheiser 477 and AKG 81 Dj's. Both of which I wasn't happy with the sound quality they produced. I was never able to use normal earbuds as they always fall out so I am going to try quality IEM's this time around. My music listing is bass heavy , and includes a lot of vocal trance as well and so far all reviews are saying the bass is great with these ( they did also with the akg's but that was very dissapointing) and that electronic music is very good with the superfi's 5 pro.

Now my questions are : for the price, is there a better headset ( all types ) that I should be looking at ? It seems these provide the best bang for buck which is why I choose them, plus they have replaceable cables and I tend to destroy the cables often . And can you recommend a place to buy from that will ship to Canada? This is the biggest issue for me, as I have looked locally and our selection here just sucks.

Thanks

I totally agree with you...BB and FS both sucks balls. My recommendations are: Headroom or Earphone Solutions. HOWEVER, they are not the cheapest...some ppl can get them from the AMERICAN Costco for $130.

Thanks for the recommendation cyberspyder , I realize we won't get any great deals like our buddies in the states but nothing can be done about that. I just hope I get a decent deal and don't get excessive shipping pricing causing them to go up to msrp ( like on ebay ).

By the way , do you have any experience with the Super fi 5pro's ? you think I am correct on assuming that they will give me the best bang of the buck and over perform what I have?
