Hello everyone,
I'm looking for an accurate/neutral IEM in the $200 range. Closer to $200 would be better, but higher is okay if the performance increase is large enough to justify it.
I don't plan on using an EQ, DSP, etc. I will probably use it 30% of the time with a mobile player and 70% of the time with a fixed source. I'm not too concerned if quality decreases when I'm using it with a mobile player.
From searching these forums, I've seen the Ety ER-4S/P and q-Jays mentioned several times as being neutral, so I have mainly focused on these two, but I am open to suggestions.
I've read that common complaints with the Etys are not enough bass, and that the q-Jay is almost as good as the Ety at highs/mids with more bass. I'm not looking for more or less bass relative to the mids/highs. It should be balanced. How do the Etys and q-jays compare in this regard?
Also, are there other IEMs I should consider?
Thanks,
MM.
