Hello there!
Sorry if my first post isn't exatly up to par with what you'll need to help me, so if you have further questions, I'd be happy to answer. Anyway, my JLab Bass earbuds have finally kicked the bucket (Wire frayed next to the Y split) and I was looking for some new IEMs or earbuds that would suite me. Currently I'm using a set from MEEAudio, but they aren't great (Got them for ten dollars on Massdrop, so I can't complain much). Recently I got a set of AKG M220's, which I thought would be a perfect set of headphones. Turns out I was wrong, since a flat soundcurve seems boring to listen to (They're probably the best headphones I've ever owned though). I was eyeing the HiFiMan RE-00's but I've heard mixed things about them. (Not great for the price, they break easily, etc). I was also looking at the Zero Audio Carbo Basso, however I've also heard some negative things regarding their durability, just not as bad as the RE-00's. I found the RHA S500's to be interesting due to their V-shaped sound signature (Something I'm familiar with due to my 668B's) I almost forgot to mention that I tend to listen to electronic music. Is there anything else I should consider?
Thanks for your time and help!
