Good IEM's under $150? UM1 vs SE215
Sep 25, 2011 at 5:19 PM Post #17 of 26
The HF5 is a really good option, though overall a little thin sounding for my tastes. But, if found under $100, I consider them a solid deal, especially if one is ok with thin bass.

Hmm... There seems to be couple voices for the um2, which is not all that expensive, considering. Budgeted that. I really like the westone sound, considering I first heard the um3x, and directly went ahead and bought the es3x. But now I need a pair of ears that i can bring around everywhere.

And yes, amazon was going the um3x for 298 couple weeks ago on prime,

Cnsidering the prospect of tf10 being cheap over thanksgiving, I might bet on that. But how bad OS the comfort factor on those?

I really like the westone um series sound, considering that I heard the um3x and directly dived into the es3x. I was thinking about um2, but that can be a little costly. Seems like couple people up here are going in for the um2 too.

Yes, the um3x was on amazon couple weeks ago for 298.

I was seriously looking at the prospect of getting the tf10 on amazon over thanksgiving, but i'mnot sure if the sale would come again. How bad is the comfor of the tf 10 sticking out? Especially for small ears?

Stretch you budget a little and get the GR07 or if your in the US you can get the Sony EX600 for around your $150 mark.

I've ordered the TFTA-2100-3V2B on Amazon UK for £99 and if the Bass and clarity is anything like Totally Dubbed says it will be a cracking IEM.  It's meant to be better than the Denon AH C710, Sennheiser IE8, Monster Turbine Pro Gold and Shure Se535 as well as the Westone 2!!  Maybe give it a try

Let me know how they are + give them some burn-in :)

Being "better" is subjective.


In this case, no. For the price, the SQ is absolutely amazing.

How about the Sennheiser IE6s?
They fit in the price and they represent a higher class, dont they?
 
My friend is about to buy an earphone in this range, I said buy the IE6, was I wrong? I love my IE8s and I cant imagine the IE6 being not awesome.
