Hello all,
I'm looking for the most fun IEMs (not necessarily most accurate) I can get for under $75 that sound great for rock music. i listen to modern rock and some punk/metal, i.e. foo fighters, fuel, stone temple pilots, tool, all-american rejects, etc. I've read a ton of threads on head-fi, and it seems like the consensus is ety er6i or the UE super.fi 3, but i've also read that the er6i's are "flat" and the super.fi 3 don't provide "great" isolation. So here's what i'm looking for...
-as good isolation as possible (will be using on the bus and on the T in Boston & in quiet study areas)
-great sounding for rock (not necessarily most equalized sound)
-sparkly highs & tight, clean bass if possible
-decent amount of bass (not a bass-head, but want the bass to be as 'present' as the highs)
-easily driven with a portable mp3 player
I'm considering the ety er6i, the ue super.fi 3, the v-moda vibes, shure e2c, mylarone x3, creative zen aurvana, beyer dtx 50, and creative ep-630.
I'm currently using the sennheiser cx300 and they sound decent to me, just looking for a notch higher.
thanks in advance to all who respond.
