Firstly, I apologize for all the posts I've made, but they seem to keep getting lost in the pages lol.
regardless, looking to spend less then $100 on IEM's.
I'm assuming you all have read this post here http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/des...ossary-220770/ which is describing each of the terms.
I am not fussy particularly, but love a lot of bass, so, going by the terms on that page, I am looking for:
(I copied the descriptions to, as if you haven't read them I don't expect you to)
Bassy - Emphasized Bass.
Seismic - Very low bass that you feel rather than hear.
Warm - Good bass, adequate low frequencies, adequate fundamentals relative to harmonics. Not thin. Also excessive bass or mid bass. Also, pleasantly spacious, with adequate reverberation at low frequencies. Also see Rich, Round. Warm highs means sweet highs.
Detailed - Easy to hear tiny details in the music
Fast - Good reproduction of rapid transients which increase the sense of realism and "snap".
Grip - A sense of control and sturdiness in the bass
Imaging - The sense that a voice or instrument is in a particular place in the room.
Now, of course I'm not getting all of these in my price range, but I'd like to aim to get the first 3, with still decent-good Mids and Highs, which are still important to hear clearly, and undistorted, I've owned IEMs that caused the mids and highs to go flat, I do not want that.
any help appreciated.
