IEMs are the cheaper avenue to great sound. They're also much more comfortable in my opinion than full size headphones.
What is your favorite earbud from your collection?
While I like my IEMs, none of them can match the openness and airiness of my full-size cans.
I would like to be in this group that prefers iems and would rather that is all I used but I haven't been able to find any comfort with them. I suspect I am doing something wrong because I find them so uncomfortable immediately. I have only tried cheap(less that $40) so far as I want to make sure I can wear comfortably before spending too much. Are there any iem's you would consider super, super comfortable? Preferably with a somewhat loose easy to slide in feel? Does that even exist or will that eliminate great sound from iem's? I was considering trying Klipsch S4 next as I had read they are very comfortable, true? Would the S4 at least give me the information I would need about comfort as I can buy those locally at Best Buy and if they were not comfortable enough could I conclude nothing iem likely to be for me? Also in my searches I came across many mentions of Westone UM series(I think) being very comfortable. Any others? Thanks.
