Looking at: TDK BA200 Rockit R50 PFE 112/122 Source: laptop/iPhone, generally unamped but considering a portable. Which of those would you recommend? Which could also handle vocals pretty well? I just got the CKM500 and like the sound but its a bit boomy but Fun. I do Miss the clarity of my...

Thanks! How do you think the BA200 fares against AT CKM500 for those genres? I have the CKM500 right here and unamped it sounds a little bass heavy but fun. Wish mids were better.

BA200 is over ear and IE800 is straight down? Sonically, rank in order of best to worst for House/Hip Hop/Jazz: R50 BA200 IE800 Thanks gents!

I mainly listen to:   House/Trance/Electronica Hip Hop Jazz Vocals   Looking for soundstage but some intimacy, decent bass (don't need anything too bass heavy), great mids.   After reading reviews on here, I've narrowed my list to the following:   Ortofon e-Q5 HiFiman...

Guys,   Apologies, but is the consensus that the Turtle Beach X11 pads or DT770 are best fit/sound/comfort for the M50?

I don't want the RE252 because of the weird shape.  I'm worried they won't fit my ears.

Damnit, so how would you guys compare the FA DBA-02 vs RE-ZERO ?   You're making this difficult!   :)

RE-ZEROs are discontinued, no?   Quote:

Quote: Thanks.  I definitely love the fit/comfort of the PL50.  I can't get over how "transparent" they feel.  I sometimes forget I'm wearing them.   They definitely don't isolate like the ER-6i.  Too bad the Ety flanges don't fit the PL50s.   Actually, the Fischer Audio DBA-02 is...

Wow, so the RE0 must sound way better than the PL50, because I thought the TF10 (borrowed them briefly) sounded noticeably better than the PL50.   Can anyone compare the RE0 and PL50? I'll have to look for threads comparing them.

Quote: I was going to say that those are some...bold words...but that would be too cheesy (look, I did!).   RE0 are THAT good? I keep hearing that the bass is lacking with the RE0.  Now, I'm curious what the difference is between them and the PL50.

I was looking at the RE0 but not sure what they can offer over the PL50 (both unamped).  I might recommend the RE0 or Fischer Audio SB to my brother, who is looking for a pair.   I'd love to have a pair of the Westone UM3X or EarSonic SM3.   If I can get the Triple.fi 10, I will.

Quote: Damnit.  Now, I have to decide between the AT-M50 and the Shure SHR840.  I've read a couple comparisons on here and there wasn't a clear consensus as to which is "better."   Thanks for the reply.

I think you're right.  I guess I have my terms mixed up.  I just know that I do not like the sound of the ER-6i.   I like a bit of bass (jazz and hip hop, I also like vocals/acapella stuff).  The PL50 don't have enough bass but I do love how they sound.   My friend has the UE Triple.fi...

What do you guys recommend? I'm looking for:   1) Clean sound, no sibilance and good bass (note: I have the Etyomotic ER-6i and decided I do not like the sound, after trying my new SoundMAGIC PL50s).  I like a wide soundstage with good separation. 2) Good fit.  I like to wear my IEMs over...
