Best IEM for a bass head?
Dec 12, 2013 at 4:04 PM Post #31 of 84
The S2 and XB90ex are totally different iems for what they go for. The is supposed to be warm and sweeter with mids and highs and not so much a basshead iem, whereas the xb90ex does completely opposite. Based on euguy's review though, I would chose the wooduo 2 over the xb90ex.

I'd take XB41EX over 90 anyday, besides it's a lot cheaper. I tried 90, didn't even feel like they're extra bass earphones tbf. 41, however, makes you say 'damn, they are extra bass earphones'. Under 100$, 41 would be my choice. They're not widely available aynmore though.

xb90ex has very big sub bass, it's more of a feeling rather than hearing, this also preserves other frequencies from being overwhelmed. cheaper xb models have bigger mid-bass, not sub bass, which make sound muddy and overwhelming other frequencies.

Anyone compared the Hisound Wooduo 2 to Futuresonic Atrio MG7, which for me have the greatest subbass of all IEMs (even CIEM Merlins) I heared?

+1...you can probably get the cheaper if you look everysooften. I got mine for $65. Just makes it that much a sweeter deal.

Well I have asked that the HW2 seller on Ebay, based on what he says Eugguy who as I see in your profile, has had several bassists iems. HW2 hope they are level with the XB90 in terms of sub bass and most iems for bassheads, always focus on the mid bass and not the sub bass as in the case of XB90, who in my view, does a very good job and too low to none

Hey all, created an account just to thank everyone for sharing their insight. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the EB90EX's. Ordered through amazon to the states. I'll report back when the burn-in is complete and I can give my initial impressions. For now, thank you all again!
