Hey, I've got a bunch of dynamic IEMs but they all seem to muddle the sound when things get busy (where there is a lot of simultaneous instruments playing). I don't really hear where my IE6s or S4s are any less prone to blurring sound than my marshmallows. Actually, I sometimes think the marshmallows are better on this score!
Anyone have recommendations for anything > $100 that doesn't muddle busy music passages? I like warm, laidback, bassy sound signature for mostly jazz. Does the Shure SE215 do a good job of keeping the instruments distinct? The Fisher Eterna? Is "warm" and "laid-back" incompatible with instrument separation? Do I need to encode at higher than 160kbps VBR WMA (Rhapsody subscription tracks) or 160kbps VBR MP3 (e-music downloads)?
That's a lot of questions. Just thought I'd pre-empt all of the "you need to specify"s.
Thx for any input.
