I am thinking about getting the Shure SE846, but have a few questions which I am unable to find the answer to on this forum or on the web.
And while they're pretty expensive, I have to reconsider this a few times
Currently I am using the Sennheiser HD 25 which I have been using for years; I absolutely love the sound signature. But I want something new and more portable. The first Sennheiser Momentum (over ear) didn't really cut it for me. I haven't tried any higher end models than those unfortunately.
Will the SE846 be a huge step upwards or would the SE535 'wow' me as well? My source will mostly be my AK100ii and occasionally my iPhone 6s.
How does the passive sound isolation work? I'd like to use this for ear protection as well while drumming and band practice. So it's very important that the ambient volume is only lowered, but not distorted or muffled. They are to replace my current custom made pluggers, which unfortunately have died..
I have a little bit of tinnitus which is really only present when I focus on it. But with the IEM's playing music on a much lower volume due to the great sound isolation, would this be an issue of concern?
