Well guys, i`m searching like crazy for the best deal on IEM out there and needing a hand.
well, here`s my case, i did the homework and used the search, read a lot about each one of these IEM, but i can`t get to a conclusion. And i came down to this options:

- Altec Lansing UHP336 Snugfit In-ear Earphone+Comply Foam Eartips: 49,99
- Radius Atomic Bass Aluminum Earbuds: 29,92
- MAXIMO iM-590 iMetal Enhanced Definition: 49,99
- NuForce NE-6 earphones: $39.00

And here`s my variables:
- I have to get any of these from Amazon (Prices are from there)
- Using the ones I get in a Sansa Clip+
- I listen to a lot of Alternative, Grind Core and Metal, and Sometimes some Techno and Psytrance

What do u guys think?

It would be helpful to know what you want FR-wise - ie are you a basshead?

That said, I have a pair of Ne-7m that I use for portable use when I don't want to risk losing anything pricey and they're quite good. They're a bit heavy on the bass.

NE-6

Have you looked at the sound magic PL-30? or the head-direct RE2?
though, on that list, i'd say NE-6.

-I`m not a Basshead, but good bass is always welcome

-i saw some reviews of pl-30 and RE2, those 2 on the list, NE-6 whould still be better?

NE-7M

 

[MusicalChillies]

Not sure how many $`s (sameish as £?) but the Sennheiser cx95 may be a choice.
Reviews Amazon UK cost sub £50

RE2 has good clarity but is bass light. Don't bother with the PL-30. I have not heard any of the Nuforce models but am considering the NE-6 for travel use.

 

[lucasseid]

The values are in USD. I`m buiyng them on amazon.com, cause i`m from Brazil
and there`s a friend of mine who`s going to the states for a week and is ordering
a notebook, so i`m just getting a ride on his order ;D

For me, metal is mids, and Altec 336s would serve you well there.

If you can get the RE2s, though, go for those; they're just generally superior to the 336s.

 

[lucasseid]

heard that Altec 336s are really bad to use on the move, so no deal for me!
good reviws of the Sennheiser cx95, looking good.

Anyone else have ideas?

 

[dnullify]

if you're planning on ordering in the same order as your friend, you have to be using the same merchant as him to save on shipping.
for example, it would say "sold by amazon" underneath, you'll not likely have to pay twice for shipping. however, you will have to check that at checkout, because not all things bought from amazon ship from the same warehouse...

that is, if you're trying to save on shipping.
