Is there anything close to IE8 (which i'm reading are almost 'complete'), but with better isolation 'as is' (meaning, i don't want to perform any tip mods)?
I am currently using PFE (black filters) + Fiio E5. They give me sufficent isolation, but upgraditis has kicked in. I want to buy the Senns but i'm afraid living in a noisy city isn't going to allow that... plus i like to pretend to be "fully involved" and dance off in my own little world.
I like the pfes but want to try this wider soundstage and better bass. I don't want overwhelming bass though. Just an accurate 'punch', which is the reason why i bought the e5. I adore mids as well. Like details/clarity
So pretty much... what's the next best 'complete' thing to the IE8.
Budget: Less than $300. Whether new or used.
Genres...bit of everything, with R&B, Neosoul dominant.
Paired with an Ipod Touch i plan to buy soon
