Hello,
I feel I am somewhat familiar (in part by reading this forum) with many types of audio equipment out there, with the exception of IEMs. I have never owned any, and I would like to get my feet wet.
1. Are there IEM-specific attributes that I should first get familiar with when analyzing and comparing sound from IEMs? The most obvious answer might be the inner ear fit (different than car audio, home theater audio, and full size headphones that I own). Thus, a set that facilitates several sizes and types of tips allowing more experimentation might be better suited in my opinion as "an intro to IEMs".
2. Additionally, are there certain models that are more appropriate for a first-IEM-purchase (specific to getting familiar with IEMs and not necessarily for sound analysis in general)?
Intro IEMs considered ($100-$200 USD range) in no particular order:
-VSonic GR07 mkii pro classic
-Rock-it Sounds R-50
-RHA MA750
-Dunu DN-1000
-TDK BA200
-Yamaha EPH-100
3. Lastly, out of pure curiosity, do you have any pros/cons that steer you away or keep you coming back to IEMs?
Thanks in advance!
