Hey guys first time posting here
I am looking for an upgrade from my dual driver UE700s
The music i listen to is rock and metal but metal 80% of the time
i started off with the apple earbuds but hated them so then moved to the Cx300 but the bass was just too bloated and everything seemed muddy, next i moved on to the Superfi studio 3s which is what really got me into it all and kept with them because they sounded so clear and detailed after they broke i received a replacement and got the superfi 5 no pro version and then eventualy got to the 700s
To me they are amazing earphones but i always feel like i want a little bit more. i will list what i dont like about my current earphones.
1 - First is the lack of thump and quantity in the bass, its there and its detailed but there doesnt seem to be enough and leaves me wanting more after hearing the double bass pedal kick in through the track
2 - I dont like the sibilance when turned up to a high volume vocals can get piercing
3 - Midrange could be a little more forward
im not sure what the next step up would be so thats why im asking you for help
do i need more armature drivers? top of the line dynamic?
so far iv come up with a list of what i think would be an upgrade
Westone 4 ???
Sennheiser IE8 (but does the big bass affect the other ranges?)
Shure SE530 (hear that it has one of the best midrange and no peircing S sounds)
Sony Mdr Ex1000 ???
