I ended up getting the fender FXA5 for a deal (it was on sale for 174$). Waiting to receive them during his next visit. Can't wait to hear them

Do you think they might lower the price on black Friday ? Would be deceiving to get them just to find them on sale 1 week later. (Date of purchase is around mid november)

Just an update about what I ended up deciding: even though there's a lot of taste-based factors between the Sony MDR 7550 and the Fender FXA2; I'm leaning more toward the FXA2 as they got a more commonly available MMXC connection (MMXCi but they are compatible I guess?) But the Sony MDR 7550...

For now I've ruled out audio technicas completely because all reviews do accept the fact that they lack a lot of bass. And honestly if I was to decide it's the most important criteria for me. So it's all down to fenders and sony's.I'll give It a bit more thoughts and see what I can come up with...

I've been using cheap earphones for a long time. I'm used to the fake feeling they offer. Those would be my first real pair.

I guess you are right afterall. I would purchase a spare cable anyway in all cases. Its just that a lot of options are there and I didn't hear anything yet so I'm scared of puting them in my ears and be disappointed.

After checking, the fender fxa2 specs specify an MMCXi cable. Here's the prices I got for the different options I got. I need to pick before next week: - fender's fxa2 (190$) -Sony MDR 7550 (220$) -Audio technica ATH-E50 (200$) If I go with the fender I'll have to purchase a cable and also some...

Would you recommend any spare cable purchase? Also how are the provided tips ? Any tip recommendation? Sorry I'm asking a lot of question but it will be at least 1 year before I can get anything imported again and the local market I'd fairly weak.

Anyone got experience with audio technica? Especially the ATH-E series ? Why are those IEM are regarded as bad over the web (reddit for example)? I've had nice experience with their microphones averall

After reading a few reviews on amazon it seems like they got a really bad problem with cables going bad after a few months. I'm back to the drawing board. Lost again. I don't want to buy a 200$ IEM to find out that it sound worse that OEM phone earbuds also.I'm sorry for my indecisiveNess and I...

I guess I'll go for the fenders then. Thanks for the recommendation. Was looking for the Sony MDR7550 also but I liked the blue fenders.

looking it up on amazon it seems like a good fit for me. Some reviews does state bright high's... is it that apparent?

I do trust them to pick the right Chinese parts more than myself because it's impossible to know what's good and what's not in all this mess. Anything to recommend in particular?

Hello everyone. I'm new into this forum so forgive me if I do some formating error. I need your help To pick a good set of IEMs that would be as neutral as possible (although some extra bass won't hurt if balanced). Budget is around 200$ (little bit more or less) I've been hammered by vsonic...
