I am a noob to the forum/audiophile world, but I realize this topic has been beaten to death. I am looking to invest in some (relatively) nice in-ear earphones BUT I'm not going to be using an amp or altoids can or whatever the hell you hxc audiophiles use. I've read looots of reviews online and I've looked in countless threads here on this board about this very subject, but it doesn't seem like there's ever a consensus on the subject or like anyone can ever come to a decision. If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to request some comparisons from first-hand accounts (be VERY direct, please; i.e. "x has better bass/lows than y, but y has better trebles/highs than x" or "x is uncomfortable" or "x is better for rock music") (bullet style would be nice? haha)
I realize the type of music one is listening to is important in deciding, so for your information, I usually listen to rock/indie rock and things of the sort. I listen to a tiny bit of rap/hip-hop... but it doesn't really steer too far from those two.
OH, I forgot to mention that I'll be using them with my 5th Gen iPod video. (mostly with music though.)
