IEMs with sound signature similar to Brainwavz M2

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 

 

After a lot of discussion in head-fi, I bought Brainwavz M2. I was completely happy with M2's sound quality. But Brainwavz has poor quality. In first 3 months ear cups got damaged and now (6 months) I'm hearing some hiss, static kind of sound

 

Though I'm going to send this earphone as its under warranty, I'm looking for another pair which has similar to M2 but with good build quality

 

Could anyone in this forum please let me know if there is any other IEM with sound signature similar to M2? I really liked this kind of sound signature (warm, good bass, smooth highs and bit forgiving nature to poor recordings)

 

Thanks

I didn't personally have any build issues with Brainwavz but you could certainly try the Vsonic GR06, fantastic for the price.

Thanks for your response

 

Actually the problem was with the ear tips...I replaced with ear buds from sony ericsson headsets..Its really great...I got back my M2's signature...

 

Brainwavz's ear tips are not good......very low quality...

 

Anyways thats not at all a concern as we can change ear tips...but I am really enjoying M2's sound quality....

LOL that's uncanny....exactly the same tips I have on my ProAlphas!  They are thicker and give a better seal, better bass response as a result. The only tips I like more are the Sony Hybrids with the foam inside but these are better suited for earphones with smaller apertures ala GR06.

Even its strange to me but I 2 of their ear tips got damaged (large and medium size)

 

But now its perfect with sony's ear tips

If your still looking i heard the CKM50 was really good for the price, better than TF10´s for certain things according to a few people! I have some on the way and i got M2´s so i could compare them for you in a week or so if you havent bought any before! 

 

Edit, the CKM50 arrived a while back, and i can honestly say i prefer them soooo much more, the highs especially are MUCH better, extend so much further, mids are more rcessed however i find them much smoother so its no drawback for me tbh, i listen to allot of EDM and the bass on these is superd..only issue im having is the stupid cable, it one of those extension ones where without the extension its way too short and with it  its way too big! 

 

I may get the CKS77 soon, apparently they sound even better, with more forward mids, better bass, soundstage and even better highs! I cant believe that as im loving the sound on these CKM50s, there discontinued now so you can get them for a stupid cheap price in the US $20 apparently from Overstock or Amazon i cant remember so i eriously suggest you get some, or get the CKS77 as if your like me you will just want to upgrade LOL 

 

Amazing deal...you should get some before they are all gone!
