Here is some good info on the Ortofons vs. the Ultrasones. The official word from Ultrasone on the matter: “ORTOFON O-one headphones are different in color design and they also use different drivers. But they feature our patented S-Logic-Technology and MU metal shielding.” The review of...

I use both ears if I'm at home and don't want to disturb whatever lady is sleeping in my bed 5 feet away...haha.

Just fitted my ADDIEM's with comply T-140 foam tips, which is what they have listed on the comply website as the mates with the 2nd gen Apple IEMs. It really transformed them. I'd consider myself a basshead but I am actually falling in love with the balanced sound that these offer...

X3 on the dual-driver Apple IEM's. I just paired my with Comply foam tips and they are a different set of earphones. Bass improves dramatically. HOWEVER, if you want the real deal bass, the Super.fi5 EB is like being in a club. True subwoofer bass in your head. Just depends on if you want...

This thread may have some useful info to you.

I can vouch for the Ultrasone DJ1 Pro's. They're sick.

I think the ATH-M50's would probably work well for what you are looking to do and they don't really require an amp. I was driving them from my MacbookPro and they sounded great. I'm sure you can get them within budget, too.

hey guys, thanks for all of the help. sorry for taking this long to respond. for some reason, I missed the last 5 or 6 posts and thought the thread had died until Young Spade bumped it. THANK YOU for the detailed breakdown, Pianist, and to everyone else for the help. So Bullseye is right, I...
