Hello guys,
I was wondering if you guys could help me find what I'm looking for. I own a Fostex TH-600 which I like a lot and a V-Moda M100. However, after trying an IE80 I would love to find a nice IEM that suits me. I think the M100 is very good, but isolation can be an issue since I'm on public transport all the time, I feel I'm not using it to its full potential.
However, in the past, I've had a Monster Turbine Miles and at times it struggled to fit properly (either it became loose a lot or it started to hurt after a while). Could it be me or was it just that specific type of tip (I believe they were rubber, the circle ones)?
What I THINK I'm looking for overall is good (not necessarily a lot, maybe more than average) bass and warm vocals, but I could be very wrong. I usually listen to Electronic or Pop music on the go (energizing!) if that helps. My budget is around 500, but could be stretched (or lowered if simply not necessary).
Oh, and preferably I would like them to be used without an amp? I don't know if this is possible. I was looking at the IE80 myself, not sure what else I should choose.
Thanks!
Jimmy
