Okay, I recently started buying CDs again (Until now I mostly bought stuff on iTunes) because I realised you could actually get the hard copy cheaper as a CD if you knew where to look. Plus I like having backups. So loads of Ladytron CDs on their way.
Right now I have an old JVC system from the early 2000s, its a piece of ---. Whenever I put a CD in it I am dissapointed the songs sound better even on my MacBook Pro and the Bass overwhelms the vocals completely, I can't stand that. I hear bass better than other stuff and so while everyone else wants more bass, more bass, I just don't. Can anyone please make a recommendation for a complete sound system, that is both good quality (long lasting etc) and cheap? max budget would be 500 Euros in total, I know this isn't a lot but well hopefully someone here has an idea!
I tried many headphones over the years (I know, nothing to do with the sound system but just to explain why I can't stand too much bass) from Shure to Sennheiser In-Ear phones and always too much bass. In fact the best earbuds I ever had - Yes, I kid you not, please don't make fun of me - was the standard apple earbuds that come with the iPhone, I had never heard anything that sounded better to me. Yeah, I'm serious. The bass was just right.
Thanks everyone!
