First post, I've been a lurker for a while I guess.
I'm in the market for a new pair of IEMs. I produce music and like analytical, detailed and colourless sound in the hope that it influences me in the right ways. I've got some Senn HD380s that I'd take everywhere with me if I could.
I'm plugging into my HTC Desire-S phone. I'm unlikely to buy a separate portable amp unless there's a lot to gain in doing so (I don't carry a handbag . I've got fairly small and sensitive ear canals so I'm concerned about fit and weight. I'm likely to use these on public transport so I'd like good isolation and basically the largest, most precise soundstage I can take everywhere with me.
I have read most of the big IEM post on here and the usual suspects of the Fischer DBA-02 and Senn IE8 are on my radar. I can't go much above the price of these two. I understand there have been new offerings since these so I might be a bit behind the times.
I'd love to hear some input from the experts on here.
Thanks,
Matt
