Hey everyone,
Checking in again after enjoying a pair of EPH-100s for months; I'm thinking about just going for closed full-size headphone right around now, but I'm not sure what price range I'm looking at for what I want out of them.
I have a FiiO E11 that hasn't been getting much use given the EPH-100's 16ohms. I like the EPH-100's honestly, stepping up from $30 cheap ones from Best Buy
, but I feel like the soundstage is still too compressed for what I'm looking for. Little too bassy as well, and the 4kHz drop in the frequency response has been really starting to kill me lately. The dip helps out with making listening less tiring, but I find myself having to pay more and more attention to the sound; call me a budding treblehead, haha. The bass boosting EQ's on the E11 have essentially been ruled out for me with this IEM, in other words. I am planning to ditch them in the near future, just because I'm going to phase them out for long-term listening and use cheaper IEM's for portable; I'm starting to also get afraid of accidentally pulling the cables out at some point..
I listen to an excess of EDM, some rock and pop now and then. Particularly, I'm also learning to mix/dj a bit, so comfort and durable swivels are something I'm also looking for.
To be honest, completely lost here. Had a little bit of knowledge going into IEMs, but watching DJ's run off headphones in sets confuses me. I can't for the life of me understand how one makes due with hingeless LP2's, or how Armin Van Buuren deals with the treble response on his DH1200s.
