[vincentistan]

does anyone know which kind of sound signatures are the most relaxing? like for sleeping on the bus after a tiring day and you can just relax and enjoy the music some iems are very good but seem to be to painful and bright on tired ears
 
also any iem reccomendations?

Heya, what's your price range like?
 
A relaxing sound signature, to me, is warm (with some bass tilt), has highs which are laid-back (a splashy or sparkly treble tends to be too 'sharp' for me to relax sometimes) and lush mids which are neither too forward nor too distant (otherwise I have to strain to appreciate them).
 
The Sennheiser IE80 (about $270 from amazon.de) is my most relaxing sounding IEM, although the Klipsch X10 isn't bad either for second place.
 
For sleeping on the bus I'd recommend the X10, $100ish on amazon and very, very comfortable with great isolation. Good luck.

^What he said, but I'd also add some more characteristics; relaxing IEM won't smack your face with details and non-congested soundstage.
 
I'm using Shure SE215 as my designated IEM for relaxing or long listening sessions. I'm also hearing good things about TDK BA200's ability to provide that "relaxing" feel.

If you want to go really cheap I think you might enjoy the Meelectronics RX12. I picked up a pair because of their small housing size, flat cable, and warm bassy sound signature. I have used them for falling asleep quite often. I got mine for less than $5 but they are still available for about $7 (I am a sucker for cheap IEMs).

The IEMs with relaxing soundsignature(warm or neutral, detailed but not bright) like ADDIEMs, Klipsch Image X10, RE0, RE_ZERO, RE272, V-Moda Remix, Sony EX85, and EX600 are recommended.
