I've done so much searching and reading and researching and I just can't decide which one of these to get!
My first set of proper in ear phones were Sonys. I remember when I got them, they were mid range price. (can't remember the exact model). Put on a song I was very familiar with and suddenly went WOW. The bass blew me away more than anything. I was not expecting it. Then I figured I had put down a decent amount of money for some headphones so I was just in a different league of sound.
I decided that I would upgrade them yearly and one week ago I bought the Sennheiser IE60's. At first, I was totally underwhelmed. I thought I had thrown my money away, but as I experimented with the ear buds and got the right seal for my ears, the sound improved ten-fold. I still wasn't blown away, however and I still miss my Sonys. The Sennheisers are quite balanced in lows, mids and highs and the bass is sufficient when the song commands. It is also accurate and wholesome, but I just don't get that wow-factor off them. It's more of an appreciation of the accuracy they display compared to the Sonys.
I have decided to go all out and just get the best that money can buy. I want to be blown away again and I don't care how much it costs. As well as the two mentioned in the title, I was also briefly looking at the JVC FX700's. The three phones seem to cater to my musical taste best.I also came across the Digizoid ZO2 (Is this worthwhile)?
Please help me pick one of these three phones. I'm at a complete stalemate with myself!
