Hey there again everybody!
Just a few months ago I was out on the market for a bass heavy IEM and with a fair amount of convincing I decided to go for HJE900. Well the initial impressions coming from Eterna were quite well lets say I was unimpressed whatsoever. But after a while it just grew on me.
Now lets say I'm quite happy with the HJE900 details and overall sound quality but the bass is just not enough for my liking. I do prefer a lot more HJE's more of a sub bass type of bass instead of the Eterna mid-bass hump.
So thats what I'm after right now:
-An IEM with quite good soundstage
-Not to harsh highs
-Very powerful sub-bass type of bass ( quantity and quality wise)
-Fairly good level of isolation for commuting on London underground
So far my options are down to:
*Future Sonics Atrio (Mg7) ~170$ (110£) New
*Monster Turbine ~80-90$ from the sale/trade thread
*Hippo VB ~80$ New
*Radius DDM ~150$ (92£ from accessoryjack)
I have gone trough jokers and clie'os massive comparison threads but still can't make up my mind.
As it says in the topic it is intended for listening to drum and bass (good 95% of the music I listen is dnb)
Could somebody please advise which would be the better option from these 3 IEMs? And what I might miss coming from Eternas and HJE900? And if there are any better options for me.
Thank you in advance.
