Hi,
I have been a frequent lurker on these forums but have only just joined. I have been looking for a nice pair of iem's to use in place of my ath-m50 since I find them to be a bit of a pain to use since they are over-ear headphones. I have been looking through a lot of reviews of iem's and it seems like the ortofon are an excellent choice. However, as I have never been able to listen to them, I am not completely sure if I should buy them instead of the triplefi 10 which many of my friends recommend to me. They have let me listened to their tf10's on several occasions and, in my opinion, they sounded better than my audio technica's. Would the ortofon's be a further step above the triplefi10? Also, one of my friends have repeatedly told me that a "fun" sounding iem/headphone (ie. triplefi10) is better for just pure listening enjoyment than a balanced sounding iem/headphone (ie. e-q5) which is better suited for actual monitoring work. Is this true?
