Around what price points would one expect generally similar sound quality from both IEMs and Open Headphones? (e.g. $100 open headphone is about $??? IEM)
I realize that IEMs and Open headphones have much different sounds, and generally its cheaper to get good sound from open headphones, but I thought a general price match like this may be useful. And yes any estimates people make will be very vague, that's fine.
More specifically to me, I'm looking for a pair of IEMs with about the same sound quality as my grado sr-60 (I'm not looking for grado sound in an IEM, just general quality). I'd use Zen Vision:M line out to cmoy or just out of the headphone jack.
