I'm looking for a good pair of earbuds, the best that I had were AKG K318, now I want to upgrade to something with the hability of make me smile every time I use them!
I listen to almost all genres, because I like good music, regardless of genre, but most of the time I listen to: rap, soul, jazz and rock. I tend to listen in FLAC, almost all my files are on that format.
I'm not a basshead, I like powerful bass but clean and controlled, not boomy and blurred. I also like detail, smooth and warm midrange, and crystal clear but non fatiguing highs. 3D holographic soundstage is something that I love too
My budget is 120€ (more or less), and I will use them with my smartphone (Sony Xperia M2) for casual listening when I walk on the street, nothing more. I have JBL LSR305 and AKG K812 at house
I'm newbie in the In-ear headphones territory, so I've been reading this week and I have this models in mind:
- Klipsch Image X11i (119€): I saw them at +300€ on some stores, so looks like a real bargain, BUT, I don't like the cable, looks very fragile and cheap, looks like a 20€ earbud cable.
- Shure SE215 (79€): I've read marvels about this model, and really like how they look, but if the Klipsch is a really big step up I will not buy them.
I'm very open to more reccomendations because I did not heard the earbuds mentioned aboved, only read reviews.
Thanks for your attention and please, excuse my crappy english.
