Hello all, I'm looking for some mid-range IEMS ($200 or under).
I currently use the UE super.fi 3's and the sennheiser cx300s. I end up switching between the two frequently because I love the high-end and detail of the super.fi 3's and i like the memory wire, but they have virtually no bass and the smallest ear tips that come with the UEs are still a bit too big to where they hurt after an hour or so. I use the cx300s a little more often because they're more comfortable and I use the smallest ear tips (which are a bit smaller than the UEs). I really like the emphasized bass, but it's kinda muddy, and these phones seriously lack high-end.
so i'm looking for some mid-range IEMs but I don't know much about them. I've read so far that the UE super.fi 5 pro's, the shure E4Cs, and the Denon C700s seem to fit the bill, i'm just wondering which one is most comfortable for small ear canals, and then secondary is which one sounds the best, has the best high end and a good thumping bass. would comply's on the UEs help at all or do they detract from the sound at all? any other suggestions for good-sounding phones and comfortable ones would be a lot of help.
i listen to rock mostly, and i've currently been listening to muse, breaking benjamin, stp, and some sublime. (i have to listen to stockholm syndrome and time is running out with both the SF3s and the cx300s back and forth because i need the bass and the high-end! it's driving me nuts that i can't get both!)
