Been considering a IEM upgrade for christmas. On the desktop side fairly happy with my HE-400i until I can get an endgame.
I like my dunu's, but after having heard a variety of higher end models, there is something missing. Mainly soundstage I think, and bass extension. I'm not looking for the most accurate sound, I want something that makes me want to dance and nod my head, while still being accurate.
My preferred signature is warm, with strong bass impact and extension but not too much, and I really enjoyed how the SE846 and K10 sounded. Recessed highs are preferable.
Main music I listen to is electronic and classical, with various other categories (bigroom house, rock, pop). I usually have a artist preference, so I enjoy most songs by 1 artist but maybe not the same category by other artists.
Been considering these models:
Ibasso IT03
Musicmaker Shockwave III
Dunu 2002(J)
Orion V2 B-stock
Vibro Sera
Massdrop Noble X
I have access to Taobao directly so prices for the Ibasso and shockwave are around $230. The other 2 take months to ship though. And I'd rather have them on hand by mid-december.
And going into these price ranges maybe a entry level DAP would be useful.
I heard Xduoo is good, and the X3 is $100 while the new X10 is $160.
Also considering buying the standard VE ZEN 2.0 for fun, around $110.
Thanks for any suggestions/recommendations.
