I need a decent IEM for working out and travel. I have the Munitio Tek9, and my favorite set of cans to date are my PRO900. I'm selling the Tek9 because they don't really fit well in my ears, and they're too warm for my tastes these days.
I essentially want a slightly more exciting MDR-v6 in IEM form. I'm not really looking for another PRO900, because, well, i don't think it can be done in an IEM, and I'm going to use these for the gym and travel. That means I need speed and accuracy for working out music, but also decent mids for more relaxed music and movies. So I was thinking a relatively flat FR that's more fun than analytical in its presentation would be perfect.
These requirements led me to the Phonek and Hifiman based on Joker's reviews. I agree with him on almost every other IEM i've heard, and these two sound like they might fit my requirements. Just curious to see you guys' opinions on these two. I know the RE262 is relatively hard to drive, but I've got my digiZoid ZO for when I'm not at the gym, and I'm not opposed to picking up the new Fiio mini-amp if I like them enough.
Thanks in advance.
