looking for replacements for my sennheiser ie60s

[fuzball]

Hello all.. First post here although i have browsed for quite some time.

My ie60s are finally dead and i need a replacement set.
I can get another pair of ie60s for £100.... Or im wondering if there are new IEMs out there for similar money that are better?

MAX budget is £120 really.. So i cant look at any that cost more as i will start to want and chase that little bit extra.. Then the price range is double what i was looking at.

I like clean and good quality sound.. I do love the ie60 sound stage. I dont listen to music too loud as most of the time i wear them at work at my desk.

Thanks for all help and advise.

You should look into the Dunu Titan 1--it's within budget. It would be good for your purposes. Whether it's an upgrade or a sidegrade is really up to you.

Fender-Aurisonics DX-A1 is something worth looking into, just wait for reviews:

Thanks for the feed back thus far.
I purchased my original ie6s back in 2012 i think, then they where replaced under warrantee for the cables splitting where they enter the bud....
This same problem has arisen again.
They have served me very well as im very careful with them.

Im really looking for an upgrade from thes ie60s.

What supprises me is they still retail for almost what i purchased them at back at the beginning (£120 then... £100 now)

Im sure tech / competitors nust have come out with a better unit...specially since the ie60 is just a rebranded ie6.

The RHA MA 750 look pretty good as they are better than the shure 215s (which i was also looking at when i purchased my original ie6's)

I know musoc genre helps, but i listen to anything and everything from death metal to the occasional country and western stuff, to classical to rap.

I really enjoy music quality and realness in the sounds. So i dont want a bass heavy (like the shure 215s are supposed to be).

I would just buy another pair of sennheiser ie60s but i yearn for that little bit 'more' from my IEMs.
