Hi,
 
this is my first post to this forum and I want to say "hello" :) to all of you.
(Sorry for my English...it is not my mothers tongue...)
 
For my IRiver T60 4GB I am looking for a new IEM.
I previously own a SONY MDR ???, which cable broke very soon and it was too bass loaded ("bloated"?).
 
I dont like this BOOM! sound anymore. Then I found the Ultimate Ears SuperfFI 3 studio, which opened my
ears. I like them very much.
Unfortunately two things happen: 1.) They broke 2.) They are no longer manufactured.
 
I like a neutral sound with clear and clean reproduction of the audio signal. "Balanced armature" I learned, is what
I am searching for.
 
The music I am listening to is classic, jazz, folk, vocal, folk-jazz, electronic (synthesizer), acoustic guitar etc this like.
 
My price tag is around 100 EUR.
 
Since I am living in germany, I would prefer a manufacture, who is easy to contact and from who is easy to order
from there.
 
Now I am looking for a new IEM which the above sound qualitiey and which also is of mechanical quality.
I dont like to wear china in my ears any longer. I often have to travel by train and I will use them therefore
often.
 
I read about Weston UM1 and Weston W1, but I have no idea how they compare to the UE SuperFi 3 Studio
and what they build quality is.
 
Are there also others choices ?
 
What IEMs should I buy?
 
Thank you very much in advance for any help in advance!
Best regards and have a nice evening!
mccc
