I was using some Westone UM1's before this. Not ideal but not bad and way better than the older Shure (lower end) that I was using. The UM1's broke a stem so now I need to buy some more.
I'm a bassist in a modern worship setting and I value clarity across the tonal spectrum but I definitely need to hear myself and the kick-drum clearly. I was just going to order some Westone UM Pro 20's and call it a day because I had a favorable impression of Westone products for live monitoring but I thought I'd shout out and see what else is out there. My bass (an Elrick Gold E-volution 4) has a hifi sound and I want to hear that from the low end to the high end. I want durability as well.
So right now I've taken a look at the UM Pro 20's and the Westone W20 (what's the difference between these two?). Then I started looking at the Audio Technica ATH-IM03 and thinking, "3 drivers for the price of 2" but not really sure about them. I don't really want to buy used because I don't feel confident without a warranty if I break another stem or something. I don't know.. kinda want the warranty.
Any thoughts?
