hey, i have a full size closed headphone; beyerdynamic DT770 pro. I literally loved them to death.........ive tried to repair them except i think the left speaker became weaker than the right...so they are pretty much garbage.
now that i need something new, i feel like a more portable device will suit me better. i don't know the first thing about IEMs besides that they are small and fit into ur ear. i am a little concerned because the cheap earphones that come with ipods and stuff hurt my ears. are IEM's different?
what mainly draws me towards a portable solution is that the ear pads from the beyers leave circle imprints in my hair that doesnt look good. also ive recently started to run frequently and would love to be able to listen to music.
i like my music to be loud and bassy. i listen to everything but tend to get more of a vibe from hip-hop/club music and techno/dance, but i also dont want rock to sound like garbage - rock doesnt sound great on my beyers. i try to keep the quality limited to 320kbps/flawless. i could really tell the difference between 320 and 128 on my beyers.
I am looking to get a pair of IEMs in the $100-150 range, that dont need an amp. they will be mainly driven out of my laptop or a mp3 player which i also need to get. i love bass, im not sure how it works with iems though, im worried of the greater potential to damage my ear drums because of where they rest.
