I care!!!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

   
Sum up: Bass headphones (in-ear or over ear) with also nice sounding mids and highs around 600$ with available shipping to Denmark.

One of my favorite movies ever... Certainly have a few people I know that should meet Dr. Lector.

I finally got a chance to hear some $1k+ IEMs! Now i'm regretting it because even my memories of the ASG 2.5 are nothing compared to the bass force I just heard.
 
Now I need to convince myself I shouldn't spend over a grand on a single pair of IEMs. Argh...

 

[Pacman123]

What IEM was it?

 

[vapman]

Don't remember, it didn't have any writing on the IEM so i have to double check, but it had 6 drivers per side.

 

[jmills8]

I had 6 driver iem, 8 driver iem, 12 driver iems and none of them could match the bass from the 90ex or 2.5. Also none of those $800 and up multi BA iems could beat the bass from the Harmony. 6 BA driver iems are designed for balance not bass.

when i find out what it was i heard, i will let you know, and if you haven't heard it yet let me know how it stacks up. what i heard was a new level of bass from IEMs.

Bro are you kidding me?!?!?

Damn bro, killing us. More bass than asg g2.5? You have my attention.

Sony ex800st (taped)
Sony xb90ex
ASG 2.5  (vent 100% open)
 
I use an amp all the time and I raise sub-bass eq all the time as well

Can you direct me to more details regarding the "tape" method of the EX800ST?
 
Thanks!

Isn't BassLoverDK looking for headphones? He mentioned on ear or over ear... If so wrong thread.

I am looking for in-ear or over-ear i don't like on ear...

 

[BassLoverDK]

And thank you all for the answers and recommendations, keep 'em coming!

I haven't heard enough IEMS, but definitely a decent amount. Sony Xb90ex is my suggestion for your budget for sure. Truly love these IEMS.

The best bass (strictly on its own merits) that I've heard from any earphone has been provided by the Cardas A8. It's thunderous, potent, and yet not overpowering. It sounds like a 2.1 system in my ears!

 I heard those 2 weeks ago.
 
Japan is pretty awesome about availability

That vent.
Cover with black electric tape and you cannot even see it has anything on it (black on black) then put a pin prick in it with a thumb tack.
 
500mW max input with a 16mm driver tuned for audiophile and flat from 20Hz to 1khz. The tape forces the sub bass up but leaves early mids un touched (audibly anyway) and you have a wide stage and fantastic detail retrieval.
