So, getting bored of these UE's(Metro 170's... idk, paid $10 for them used on here back in March).
I'm looking for something good for metal, rock...want those bass drums to hit. Isolation is cool, without sacrificing comfort too much...of all the IEMs I've tried, I really loved the fit of the Senn IE6's and Mylarone X3i's, so closer to those would be cool.
Easy to drive is preferable, but if they could benefit from an amp(like the RE-0's I had before these Metro-Fi's), that'll be fine. Durability is also key, but if they have a good warranty, I'm interested. I'd love removable cables(if replacements aren't too expensive). Clarity+neutral sound would be nice, with maybe a bit of bass(at least as much as the RE-0's have, or my Metro-Fi's).
Price-wise...I'll just say under $200, used or new, I guess...still way more than what I wanna spend, but I guess I can sell enough stuff to make this happen. I have a Fuze(rockbox'd), ipod 5.5g (rockbox'd), and my icon mobile running out of my computer as my sources.
So, what are some suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
