I'm planning on getting the ATH M50 to replace my generic headphones because they broke. Ive found they are the best home headphones in my price range which is up to 160 dollars.
But the problem is i also go to the gym and im not planning on bringing the ATH M50 to the gym. So i have to find a good pair of in ear headphones to go to gym that are fairly cheap( up to 40 dollars), but i still want some really good isolation, because my gym is very loud. For the gym im choosing between the Klipse image s2 and the PK3 earbuds. Does anyone have any advice for good isolating in ear heaphones that are good at playing metal and rock music, that are in my budget.
Also im worried that the in ear headphones may turn out to be better than the ATH M50, and i dont want to waste 150 dollars, so will the ATH M50 be a huge upgrade from the cheap in ear headphones, cuz i was planning on using it for some guitar use so i want to hear every note in each recording i listen to. Any advice will be greatly needed
