Hi guys,
I have been looking over this forum for the last couple of days to help me decide on a new pair of headphones. I recently got the Koss KSC75 and feel like I need another pair of something even better. I am looking for a good one around $100. Isolation is important for me as I need to block out the surrounding noise in my dorm room. I am considering the Grado SR60 because of its reputation. I am also considering the IEMs (esp. CX300), but I am not sure about them because of cable noises from head movements or brushing against clothing. Could someone please comment on how bad the cable noise is and affect the listening experience of an IEM like the CX300? Please share your expertise on whether an IEM would be better in my situation than a more traditional headphone (and which ones). Thank you all in advance.
