My son has broken his Skullcandy IEMs, and I want to get him something that will last him more than a month. (no Skullycandy in this house

)

I have no idea of what is best in this price range, so I'm open to ideas.

Son is 14 and listens to a variety of music. SQ and ruggedness are important. Must be IEMs.

Perhaps look at the Head-direct RE2. Links to several reviews on this page :

Your son would probably like a more bassy IEM than the RE2. Check ou the Denon AH551, or the UE Metro.fi

 

[fyu]

isn't this what we all want? cheap, tough, and good sound quality


btw, the search isn't broken

 

[selkin]

so you think metro.fi is thicker in the bass range ?
btw get a sennheiser imo

 

[kretzschmar]

get him the re2 with a fiio e5 to help with the bass. should cost around 60 bucks, and he should be pleased with having an amp.

Go check out the new IEM from Jays: the S-Jays.
Reviews say they have plenty bass, look cool and preform very good for a $60 IEM

Sennheiser cx400 sounds like your description to me..

 

[nismohks]

senn cx300 or 400.

i dont know about the service from where you're from, but here in australia, they have a 2 yr replacement warranty! that will probably save you a LOT of headaches.... and money...
