Hey all,
I'm very new to this whole audio gear scene and I am looking for some VERY cheap closed earphones that are preferably circum-aural (more comfortable to me, compared to supra-aural)..
I do some VERY amateur music recording on garageband and am looking for something to monitor with as my speakers annoy my family..lol
I am seriosuly considering these:
Shure: SRH240 | Headphonic: Australian Headphone Specialists: Buy Etymotic, Alessandro, Audio Technica, Ultimate Ears, Talisman, Meier Audio and more
As you can see, my budget is small...like less than $100...as I'm not really fussy... But in saying that, I've been using a pair of Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Pros and I wouldn't want to get anything that sounds worse than what I already have... I know full sized phones are better sounding than IEMs by design, but is it unrealistic for me to expect a better sound, with the budget that I have, than my decent IEMs? More specifically, would the Shure SRH240 (above..) be 'better' sounding for what I do? monitoring?
Thanks all!
