In need for your pro advice....

Thx for entering....

So, thing is, after going through this website, i was convinced to buy the FX55 (JVC's).... I can say that i was very much underimpressed....

Didn't like them that much... (I hooked them up to my Creative Zen V - A decent inpot my all means...)

In any way, they got broken (Some random dude pulled the cored too hard.... )

What would you recommend me for IEM are going? (something cost efficient, that is.... I would rather it to be in the same price range....)
Are V-Moda's any good? (BASS FREQ)

Thx alot!

I recommend the Etymotic ER6 or ER6i for around $80 . I just bought the ER6 and they compete very nicely against my ER4P which cost twice as much.

There are better choices if you like boosted bass but I believe accuracy will suffer.

I bought my ER6 here.

Unless you want a really bass-heavy sound, I wouldn't recommend em. I bought mine in a fit of experimentation & they are simply too much (for me at any rate -ymmv) - bass dominates the mids & highs & fills your entire lower skull

. Exactly as V Moda advertise so I guess they do what they say on the tin.....I use them pretty much only for train-travelling if I can't be bothered correctly fitting my IEMs, or I don't want to leak thru my KSC75s.

Sigh...if only I could get to hear/buy some JBL Ref 220s over here in England!

That's still 80 bucks.... quite a leap.....

Isn't there anything worthy in the lower price range? and say i were to go with those.... will there be such a difference?

I know that in the 60 ~ 80 bucks range, there are 4 pairs that are recommended... are these the best?

Usual suspects such as Creative EP630s/Senn things...Checked Headroom's reviews for IEMs?

Me, I still like the E2c....but praps only because I can't yet afford to move up!
