Well, following up my previous thread where I inquired about earphones on eBay, I'd now like to know what would you guys recommend me for IEMs around $60, and also if you know of good online stores, because usually it'll be less expensive to order them online from the States, even with shipping, instead of buying them in Canada.

So yeah, any recommendation?

Thanks.

 

[Peanuts]

Anyone?

i purchased the etymotic ER6i from amazon for about $70 and i love them, great isolation. You also have the Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 in that price range. I have only owned one pair of IEMs so i cant really tell you which is better.

 

[big-fi]

What kind of music to you listen to.

at that price...

er6i
sf3
e2c
x3i/xbi
re2(group buy-$80)

 

[Peanuts]

I listen to all kind of music, really. From electronic to rock to jazz. That's why I didn't mention it, heh.

But yeah, thanks for the replies so far. Also, if any fellow Canadian know of a good store that ships to Canada for a reasonable price, please do tell me!

Try to find some info about the RE2. They seem very interesting under 100$.
If you are going to get an amp, you should consider the Altec Lansing iM716.

 

[Peanuts]

Thanks, I'll be sure to check the RE2 out.

And no, I'm not going to get an amp. I'm looking for something light, since I'll mainly use them while traveling or when I don't have place for an amp on me.

 

[Peanuts]

Well, now it seems that my problem is not as much the earphones, as is it to find a place that would ship to Canada, for less than about the cost of the IEMs themselves.

Any help?

 

[big-fi]

wait at the FS forum on head-fi

you can EASILY find e2c and Mylarone X3 at $50 or under.

Mylarone x3 should be find at like $35-40

They're not technically IEMs, but the Denon C551 are an excellent choice and 69 on Amazon.

 

[Peanuts]

The Denon C551 aren't available for shipping to Canada on Amazon.com, sadly.

But I could get the Shure E2c for $64.49. All good, uh?

Not really:
Shipping & Handling: $52.98

That's horrible.

 

[Peanuts]

What about the Shure SCL2? Would you guys recommend them? Because they visually (at least) look the same as the e2c, and I could get them for about $75.

 

[big-fi]

They are bascially the same.

 

[Peanuts]

So I guess $75 including shipping would be a good price?

 

[Jo-Vo]

I guess it would be nicer to get Ultimate Ears super.fi 3.
Maybe these could also be shipped to your place? I have them (and E2C).
