Hello all,
I had posted a query in another thread for the "best $100 IEM for active sports and android". As I was suggested the M6 PRO, I have been catching up on this entire thread.
My main requirements are on the lines of -
1) Usage - Desk (Laptop) and Active use (along with my Sansa clip OR Note 3 for run or a jog and sometimes the gym);
2) Fit - Preferable loops behind the ear
2) Music Genre - Old school Trance and EDM (Paul van Dyk etc.); Rock (U2, Linkin Park, Mettalica, etc..); Instrumental Soundtracks (Hans Zimmer and so on...) so pretty much anything except hip hop beats or the occasional Rap music.
3) Preferred Sound stage - I have had the Brainwavz M2 earlier. They have been AWESOME but now the wires are frayed and I need a Mic/remote for android as well. So I would love something which sounds accurate but still has a better than average (maybe a bit boomy?) bass. I have the Piston 3 but honestly they suck when compared to the M2.
Also, I had ordered the "sennheiser-ocx-686g-sports" a couple of weeks back but had to return as they were just OK in bass but the lows and treble seems to be quite harsh and sharp.
4) Budget - around $100 (preferably under!)
5) Android - So remote with volume and Mic are needed.
My Question is "Is M6 PRO the still best under $100 which checks all my boxes above or anyone can suggest something better?"
Would appreciate any replies on this as my brother is visiting the States in a couple of weeks' time; so I can order and get them shipped in time.
Many Thanks!
