Hello all,
I'm looking for an IEM for my workplace and am looking for some opinions. Given that I can't bring my HE-500s to work (oh how they have spoiled me...) I am considering the VSonic GR07 (BE or regular), JVC HA-FXT90, or Yamaha EPH-100s. I typically listen to metal (bands like Insomnium (a melodic death metal band with orchestral backings), In This Moment, etc) but also want something that at least isn't the worst thing in the world for the occasional trance (e.g. Armin Van Buuren) and soundtrack orchestral pieces. In the $100-$200 price range (though flexible if truly worth it) can someone recommend an IEM that might fit what I'm looking for? The GR07, HA-FXT90, and EPH-100s seem like decent fits but I'm certainly open to other suggestions.
Thank you!
EDIT: On the workplace comment, I don't need to drown anything out - I'm a software architect so just occasional talking near me. I just want to replace my current set with an IEM and the Senn HD 598s haven't fit my musical preferences as well as I was hoping.
