Okay so I'm gonna leave the FXZ00's and CKS1000 for now and wait until something better comes along when I have more money. For now though which should I choose? ATH CKN70 or Sony XB90EX?
 
As I've said before, here are my requirements:
 
 
I enjoy bass but I don't want it to bleed into any of the other frequencies or overpower the vocals. I'm looking for a IEM that doesn't have any flaws in the highs and mids. I currently own the JVC FX101 and JVC s500. I'm looking for an upgrade in every department to the s500's (BASS MUST BE AT LEAST LEVEL IN QUANTITY WITH S500 STOCK) excluding soundstage as I don't care for it much.
 
Which of these IEM's match my description the most?

Thanks for the recommendation but I have already considered other IEM's and have now narrowed it down to the two I mentioned.

I still wonder if the CKN70 are gonna be an upgrade to my Yamaha EPH100 which I love so much. I only since they are both micro dynamics, but the ATH are almost half the price.

So who will be the guinea pig this time?

I bought a pair of the 600s.. should be here Tuesday..Will give my impressions

hello dsnuts and every1, i was earlier browsing thru the ele dac pages and i noticed this unanswered question by omnom (which i also have):
 
"Is there a portable amp, equivalent to the ELE?"
 
in my case i use a sansa clip zip to do exercise so i think i dont have the luck of the android users for which the ELE DAC can work (or perhaps the clip's internal dac is already good enough and in the possiblity of ele dac working it would be pointless?), so that means i have to buy an amp: Which cheap and good one would make my sansa clip put my mh1c's to sound to its best ??
 
thanks in advance people!!

Well, you will have a choice of 2 if you're looking for cheap and cheerful.
 
I'd recommend either the FiiO E11 or the C&C BH.
 
The latter has a very clear, dynamic sound. Where the E11 can make some headphones/iems sound congested and/or muddy.

The way you phrase it makes it sound like there is really only one option

Wanna trade??? :veryevil:

TBH i am much more impress with new micro drivers than the traditional dynamic type. The cost in making them seems to be relatively cheaper and they sound many times as good as the old tech.

Hmm, my $90 IEMs for your $230 ones? Sure

Well, I'm happy to sell on my E11 just after a week of using the C&C BH.
 
If that's not falling in love, I don't know what is.

OK guys. I'm almost set on the sonic vc02 for my next set of IEM. Are there any of these secret super phones that can beat them out in speed, clarity, soundstage, and imaging at the $40 price point?
