Hello all, I'm looking into my first pair of customs at a budget of ~$500.
Currently I own:
UE 700 - TWFK armatures, lacking bass extension and mids to me
Westone 2 - lacking bass extension and body to me
I like a very slightly V-shaped response and easy to drive IEMs because I don't want to bother lugging my Fiio around. I will be listening straight out of a Nexus 5. I also have a Westone EPIC cable lyring around waiting for my CIEMs, because after using the Westone 2 I can't imagine using any other cable.
The JH5 seems to be regarded as a safe choice round these parts. Custom Art is new but reviews have been great, and the silicone seems to be a plus in terms of comfort. Noble has sparse but good feedback.
What should I pick between the three... or are there more around this price range that I am missing? Thanks in advance for your feedback
