Sigh...Thought I was set to buy these. Now not certain. I spend over 4 hours on buses/trains each day commuting, it's brutal. Looking for a PORTABLE, COMFORTABLE, GREAT sounding can for primarily interfacing with mere phone and Dragonfly Red, as that is the environment I'm dealing with.
That said, I recently tried the AQ Night Owl, loved the comfort and warm sound with the Red, a lot in fact. But it most certainly is not portable whatsoever, ugh. I also tried the Audeze Sine, it is definitely portable but is such inferior sound in all ways, blehh, it was sort of embarrassing. I'm currently being lent a set of PSB M4U-1 now which I do think do sound quite amazing for what they are, but they have too much clamping pressure and look horrible to boot. I know the latter comment is a bit lame, but true.
Soooo, I felt all the happy medium might alas be the MRSPEAKERS AEON, as they appeared to meet my potential criteria, but now I fear they will NOT be truly portable either.
Perhaps what I am looking for simply does not exist? Or if so, for my own edification, will someone....anyhow give me some guidance to end my miserable search of commuting audio bliss?
Why not buy a pair of IEM's then or better yet get a custom pair. Not sure why the AEON's can't be portable as well, I'll be using mine for my commute, sure it's not 4 hours of hell but I don't see it being an issue.
Only concern is I'd want to baby them and not just toss them into my bag when done but otherwise I'll be taking mine with me every day
