Ok. Here's the deal. Sometime in the next 3 months I will be purchasing tons of great iems for the sake of comparison and finally sticking to one.
The thing though is. I want to divide them in price brackets so I know which ones to treat anyhow and which ones to treat like a newborn babe.
I need up to 10 recommendations for the first 2 price brackets, 5 from the next two, and 3 from the others.
First bracket: $0-15
Second bracket: $16-45
Third bracket: $46-75
Fourth bracket:$76-99
Fifth bracket: $100-150
Sixth bracket: $151-250
Thanks for your help. I appreciate the input.
Don't expect the comparisons anytime soon. I'm just building a list for now.
And by the way, NONE must have any hint of harshness or sibilance. If they do, it should be very very minimal.
I very strongly disagree with the Etymotic MC5 recommendation, and slightly less so with the Shure 215 recommendation.
1. Phillips 3580
2. Vsonic Gr02 Bass Edition, Vsonic VC02(removable cables!), Sony Mh1c
3. Hifiman RE0
4. Ety HF5
5. Re-262, Rockit Sounds R-50
6. Gr07 MKII, Vsonic Gr01, Hifiman RE-272, Ety Er4P

One that I've seen a few have on they're list is the Dunu IC3-S and I really think that's a bad sounding IEM. I trade an IEM that I got free for a pair and I'm glad I didn't have to pay for them because at around $100 new is way over priced imo. The sound grainy and a bit muddy and lack clarity compared to other BA's in the same price range like the HF5 and A161p not to mention the R-50, I I'd stay away from those.
Any of the TWFK based IEM's are going to sound good and of the under $200 ones I think the R-50 and GR01 are the 2 best but I want to hear the Astrotec AX-7 which is around $135 from lendmeurears.
