Hi all
I'm looking for some IEMs to use on the tube. The most important factors are isolation and comfort - as long as the sound quality is decent and the isolation is good i'm not too fussed about sound signatures.
My real question is whether the isolation comes from the phones, the tips or both? I'm really really picky about comfort and have been thinking about custom moulded tips, but would this impact badly on isolation?
My other worry about custom tips is that they're expensive and so that would come out of my budget obviously.
Any suggestions for phones/tips/ideas greatly appreciated, I'm looking at a max budget of £150 but would like to keep it more at the £100 mark if possible.
Thanks in advance
Tom
