Bought the max 3 and will give away as gifts......I had to
Bought the max 3 and will give away as gifts......I had to
I'm totally hip to the "I had to" feeling
But please try one first and give us a quick opinion. I know I have my own on the way but I am new at this and would like to hear what more experienced ears think of them.
(IIRC some said 40hrs burn-in is in order)
Sorry I just figured by your post count that you've been in this club for awhile
Hmm lets see...I have
V-Moda Vibe II Duo
Scosche IDR355MD
Brainwavz Beta
Monoprice 8320 - bequeathed to nephew
Xears Communicate C100iP
So, I don't spend a lot - I look for big discounts on items that already don't cost much.
I think I'm finding out that what I like is generally referred to here as a fun sound (which I guess is fortunate when you can't spend a lot of money). Which maybe explains why I gave away the MPs...I did notice the nice detail (for the price), but bass seemed a tad light and they just didn't excite me. To my ears the Xears are the best I have, they have great bass punch and also good mid detail and decent brightness (well that's my very amateur opinion). But I do love the way they sound.
But anyway the reason I don't trust my own opinion that much yet is...every time I put in a pair of my iems and dial up some good music I end up thinking OMG these are the best headphones, this song sounds awesome!! I mean even the Scosche had me thinking that. Then I got the Xears and WOW NOW THESE REALLY ARE THE BEST.
So anyway that's why I like to back up my own opinion with others from people who have a bit more experience.
I used Shure 530s and 535s for about 10 years and was happy. Then I gave to my better half the 535s and decided rather than get another pair I would get something 'different'.
So, on the faithful day, about a million hours of reading ago, I entered into Goggle search bar
"Best Earphones" and then it rained Hell fire and brimstone upon my head.....I found Head-Fi.
After hours of reading, I realized how unhappy I was with the 535sLOL
Seriously, I have jumped in with both feet and IMHO went right to the top (spending a few short hours in between with Westones 4 and UM3X) and now have FitEar To Go 334s and Unique Melody Miracles. Each day I think one is slightly better than the other, then the next day I switch but this much I know, for me right now, my search and curiosity to try others, has ended.
I'll really try to get enthusiastic about trying the Munitio's, I probably will want to open just to see if the tips would work better on the 334s as I am trying to tweak the sound. And while they are open, why not give a listen!
