Flavio, I don't mean to rain on your parade, but I do think there is another point to consider. How old are you? (this question does not have to answered publicly - it's more of a make-you-think-about-it type of question.) You mention that you listen to music by Guns N' Roses and Metalica now. But, keep in mind that your musical tastes may very well (and probably will) change as you age - I know mine did, quite dramatically. I was a rocker to my core. Until I heard my first real jazz record. Now I listen mainly to jazz, though I still love rock and even enjoy classical enough to have apretty good collection. And I'll bet many others out there can say the same. So my point is, do you want to tie yourself to a set of IEMs that handle that one particular type of music well or look for a good all-rounder that can grow with you? You're about to spend a fairly decent amount on these, and with proper care either should last you a long, long time. If during your ownership you do find that your musical tastes expand, wouldn't you want your IEMs to be able to expand with you; to continue to offer full enjoyment on whatever you listen to?
I'm not attempting to talk you into one or the other since I doubt you'll go wrong with either. I just want you to take as much as possible into consideration before making what for you will be a major purchase.
Oh, and I did vote.

Since I listen to lots of different kinds, I still can't decide! So, I'm making a water-drop here: Which one will sound better with Metallica and Guns N' Roses? I decided to ask this because these are the bands I most listen to, and if one IEM is not good with one of these bands, I'm not happy. If you vote on the poll, please post here why you made your choice!

But I'm not currently decised, because I like guitars, but I do like drums as well, and I love highs but I love mids as well. And SE530 is currently cheaper, and confier. Even with that, I'm leaning to Triple.Fis because of the majority of people voting on them.
