There has been so much hype about the MH1Cs that really got me thinking, are they really that good that they compare to headphones like the B2s and Gr07s, or are most people who have purchased these never heard other IEMs other than the $30 stuff you find at Best Buy and RadioShack and have concluded that the MH1Cs are the best things ever?
EDIT: Maybe using the word "hype" is not the appropriate term in this case, rather the word attention seems to be the phrase I am looking for. I am in no way trying to insult or say that the MH1C's overvalued or anything, I just want peoples' opinion on the IEMs. Obviously comparing the MH1Cs to CIEMs is a huge stretch, but the title is made for emphasis, not literal. I am also aware that the ATH-M50 has been kicked out and is no longer considered top dollar pick in every situation, but I refer to the M50s as headphones in the situation that it's not a first consideration yet many people still feel like they need to recommend the M50s in the price range of $130 without considering alternatives.
