Hi all,
I'm replacing my Sennheiser CX 550s which I've had for 4 years. This purchase is to pair with my Sansa Clip Zip.
I'm a user of the Shure SE425 with my iPod classic, and HD650 with my PC and dac/amp.
Musical Preferences: Bass neutral (maybe a bit of deep bass), Mid-Centric, Laid back treble (read: not too bright).
Primary Use: The Clip Zip is my gatekeeper. I try out new music on it, on my commute, before I decide whether the album goes to my Classic. Not sticking to any particular genre.
I'm going to spend around 160US, or 200SGD, with a delta of ~20. The choices I've narrowed down are:
They're more based on closest to my budget rather than sound.
Which of the above would be closest to my tastes?
Thanks for the help!
