EDIT: My music collection is composed of all mp3s, mainly VBR!
Yep. I just don't know which is better.
The main source will be a 5th gen iPod, and this will be unamped. Some people say the Westone UM2s are not so great with the iPods because of the iPod's lack of EQ which made me hesitant to order the UM2s. Now I'm hearing that the Ultimate Ears Super Fi 5s are wonderful with iPods and they are really fun to listen to.
Here's what I listen to: Alternative; Hip Hop; Vocal Trance.
Here's my favorite headphone I currently own: Sony MDR-V6. IMO, this headphone is very fun to listen to, and it's extremely comfortable for my head.
Here's what I'm looking for: A very nice supply of bass. The nice bass. Not the overdone bass you find in crappy car audio systems in nearly every cheap ride you see outside your house. But the nice and deep bass that's fun and addictive to listen to. I'm hearing the UM2s are wonderful but require EQ, how are they without EQ? I'll be using my future iPod as well as my desktop, which has a soundcard you all detest, an Audigy2.
I'm hearing the UE SF5s are the perfect match at the price with an iPod. I need someone to back that up. It sounds like the SF5s are fun to listen with, while the UM2s are also fun to listen with??
I'm waiting until Flavio reduces his prices with that 20% discount, so the price of the um2 shall be $240 and the UE SF5 will be $200.
Can anyone tell me of their experience of either of these headphones with the 5th gen ipod and how they compare with each other? The more I'm reading, the more confused I'm getting. I know everyone has different opinions, but please share your opinions as it will very much affect my purchase in deciding with you helping me with the info I gave ya.
Also, is the best purchase for the UM2s at techpushers? Or is there another place with a good price? If anyone has a 20% discount at earphone solutions, please share. Thanks.
