Thanks for helping me out, I am kinda new at this.
I am really getting into enjoying high quality music. I own the razer m100s, and really enjoyed using them until I listened to a friends V-Moda Vibes. So I quickly bought myself a pair after finding them for just 35 dollars. Paired with my Toshiba T400, they sound great. I am also getting a Cowon D2, and will decide on which I prefer and sell the other. So, I am confident in my audio source. Now the only question is the headphones. I would prefer IEMs, but if there is a significant price jump, then I would consider over the ear earphones. So, based on reading some threads on this great site and others, I narrowed down my choices based on performance with the price reasonable:
-Super.Fi 5 (I think EB, unless someone feels the bass just destroys the overall sound)
-UM2
-Super.Fi 3
-UM1
How much is it worth to jump from the 3s to the fives and the UM1 to the UM2? I also listen to almost every type of music, so while bass is important to have, I also would like the mids and highs to sound great. While I like the deep sound for some music, I prefer the bright music for others... So which would be the best hybrid?
Finally, would it be worth it to upgrade?
Thanks for looking, and hopefully you can help me out!
