just checked ymmv online and i agree with dobber who x2'd on me. i am learning but embarassed as co-editor of a website... to not know what is ymmv... shame on me. but yeah, ymmv for armatures or dynamics. even on thumpy versus resolved sound: we all like different sound signatures.
probably take into account how you listen now: do you like loads of detail --> if so, armatures might be your best bet. they often don't do bass as well so the details flow through and are usually much smaller. they may be faster as well but that is not always the case.
dynamics usually have tangible bass and a larger stage but are more emotional and often plagued by problems inherent in the housing system.
good luck.
