hello im trying to buy my first pair of in ear monitors and i do not know which ones to get. I will mostly be listining to rap hip hop and techno. My price range is 175$ and under. I would rather get custom but universal are ok if they are comfertable

 

[soundstige]

Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10. You won't really get customs worth talking about for under $175.

now where would be the best place to buy this for the lowest price amazon?

Rap and hiphop...check out the Atrio MG7 and Radius DDM and DUNU Hephaes, all under $175 (DUNU is under $100) and all fit the bill well for great bass and mids and high that don't disappoint. The Atrio IMO is one of the best and most under-rated IEM under $300.

so which ones should i get Atrio MG7, radius DDM, DUNU hephaes or the ultimate ears thriple fi 10

I'd go with either the Atrio or the Radius if hip hop is the majority of your music, you want thumping and coherent bass.

yes i do want bass

Hmmm I wonder if there's any custom IEM's suitable for you, I mean you can always EQ up the bass.
 
 
Where are you located?

the problem with that is that i heard it would be better to get better universals then entry level customs and i live in NYC

 

[kiteki]

I can't see what would be wrong with a dual-driver custom if you're willing to pay a little bit more than a dual-driver universal.

He'd be better served getting a dual-dynamic universal than a dual-BA custom given his choice of music tbh

 

[educatedkid]

o based on this thread and what else i read i have decided i will get universals but i still have to figure out which ones right now im mostly looking at the atrio mg7

 

[kiteki]

do you prefer a wet, smooth sound, or dry and harsh?
 
Do you want crystalline highs, or don't give a **** and just want bass in your head?
