    New iems under $80 AU? fxd80 or something else?

    I listen to a lot of indian vocal as well, and the pistons definitely fit the bill for that genre.

    First impressions: man are these comfy!! Extremely lightweight, and sits very nicely over the ears. The build quality is somewhat plasticky but does not feel cheap or weak. Definitely feels like it can last a while. Nice sound quality, great controlled bass. No way near what bass-heads would...

    Hi, thanks so much for your recommendations. I should probably clarify my music genre, it's Indian classical music (I listen to the instrumental variety), so the music would consist of a violin/flute/sax as the main instrument, accompanied with a percussion instrument. I guess that would bring...

    I may be able to push it up to ~100. How about the ATH-M50? I'd have to wait for the price to drop obviously, but soundwise?
