Ckr 9 vs e40 vs e50, can anyone give me a rundown?

So my Shure215 died and need a replacement, feel like trying something new.   I kind of like the Shure215, but would like something with a bit more resolution while maintaining the bass kick.   I am thinking ATH E-40, E-50 or CKR 9. They are not too far apart price wise, what should I pick?

Well I don't have any Fischer IEM yet since I am waiting for the Rhaposdy series, but I'd say Shure 215 could be worth a look.   They are on the warm side (bit rolled off treble), but good imaging and decent soundstage, they are a bit intimate though and fowards mids. They have a really strong...

I got a reply from Thomann. They expect the Fischer Rhapsody series in about 6 weeks, and that they will add them to their product range as soon as they are available.

Okay thanks. I already wrote them, no response.   Their homepage is horrible btw. They really should hire someone to make it look more professionel, it is the worst homepage I have ever seen by a serious company.   http://fischer-amps.de/en/in-ear-earphones.html

Yep, mine says SE215, Made in China, 3633

Which of the new models is it you have, and any idea where to get it?

Anyone knows when those new Rhapsody models will be available ? 

Would you guys choose FX 1100 or ATH CKR 9ltd/10 for rock & metal (priest, iron maiden etc). Or any other suggestions in that price range ? Shure 846 /westone w60 too expensive. FX1100 at my max budget.

  Thanks for the input, I am also very much considering the CKR9 , just worried they are too flat/bright sounding, as I prefer something to the warmer side. I currently use se215, and my music preference is Metal & Rock, and at times pop & rnb. I prefer a warmer sound signature over a...

Do you guys know how the CKR9  / CKR10 compare to RHA T20, which are roughly the same price? No one compared them it seems.

I am trying to decide between the RHA T20 and ATH CKR 9/10, what do you guys think ?   They are roughly the same price wise ,atleast the price difference is negligible to me. I currently own the Shure215 and have been for a few years, they have unfortunately broken down on me and looking for a...

I just got these and pretty satisfied. I almost always use them plugged in to my laptop (Spectre x360). Would it be worth it getting a DAC to improve sound quality? The sound is loud enough, so I am only interested in improving SQ if possible.   I prefer warm/hif over analytical sound (but...

Ya hmm.. bit worried some reviews state that k545 isn't comfortable for long sessions and less so than k550, especially since I heard k550 wasn't top of comfort either....   Thinkin abit about buying hd 598 for home use and then get some iems instead ... not sure..

They seem very interesting, I am actually leaning more towards these than k550. Looks like they have more / better bass and better for portable use + detachable cable at the expensive of slighty less soundstage.

Last bump :) want to buy today.... so far think I'm going with akg k550 unless someone has a better idea.... What I would have liked from akg k550 though is a detachable or shorter cable , or both :D   Also still interested in some more info on how all these compare?

Going to buy later today or tomorrow, so if anyone has something to add please let me know.

Out of all these, I assume akg k550 has the best soundstage... but probably also the least bass or ?

  Alright thanks for the info. I'd say I have an average size head... btw what about comfort ? My scalp seems pretty sensetive so comfort matters alot to me as well.

  I really do listen to all kinds, but if I had to pick 1 genre probably pop female vocals. But tbh some days I only listen to rnb or hip hop other days classic... Only genre I don't listen to much is hard techno/trance and metal.   Also very interested in which would be more suited for...

Thanks for input added shure 840's.

Ok so been looking at reviews for along time now, and I think I narrowed it down to these 3.   DT-770 80ohm AKG k550 Sennheiser Momentum Shure 840   Will be used for gaming, music and movies. For music will be run on my LG G2 phone. I dont want to use dac/amp etc.   I listen to all...

Hey I am looking to buy some headphones, I am basicly gonna use them for everything.     Gaming, movies and both at home and on the road for music. I want some headphones that doesn't require amp.   So far I have been looking at akg k550 and sennheiser momentum, can anyone recommend either...
