Hi All,
At home I use a pair of Senheiser HD25 with the HD600 cable upgrade. I realize that there are better sounding headphones out there but these sound pretty good to me. I want to get a pair of IEMs/earphones that I can use whilst in transit and at my desk at work. I've tried several single driver IEMs in the past and none of them have impressed me - having said that though, I've usually opted for the lower end models, such as ER6i, E210....
Bought a pair of Sennheiser cx95's last week and I was expecting good things from them as the reviews are very positive but I am dissapointed with them.
What I want to know is whether the top of the range IEMs can produce sound similar to good full size headphones? I'm thinking of splashing out on a pair of Shure E530s or the Sony EX700 but would prefer not to spend the money and be dissapointed.
The IEMs i've tried in the past didn't produce enough bass even though I was able to get a good fit. With the CX95's, the bass sounds really muddy and seems to mask the rest of the frequency range. My DAP is a Sony 829.
Thanks.
