After doing a lot of research I came upon the Shure SE215 which seemed to be not only extremely well sounding earphones - but also well built and comfortable.
However every time I looked up threads on the Shure SE215s the top comment was mostly about how some other headphone is better.
I've managed to narrow it down to the three most mentioned and raved about headphones
1. RHA MA750i - $130
2. Shure SE215-$100
3. VSONIC GR07 Bass Edition - $130
A lot of people claim that the RHAs sound quality are vastly superior to the SE215. However I am used to using $30 earphones and having to replace them every year because they break. So the durability and comfortability of SE215 is very enticing for me.
1. Are the MA750i (of even the GR07BE) that much better sounding then the SE215 that they are worth the extra $30 and loss in comfort?
2. One of the SE215's biggest selling points are their build quality. Are the other IEMs similar in which they can survive for over 3 years and be pretty much abused the whole time? I really don't want to buy $130 earphones only to have to buy new ones after a few years.
If it makes a difference I pretty much listen exclusively to rap/ hip-hop
Thank You
