I've had the phonaks for about 8 months now and have been relatively happy with them. However, the strain relief at the jack is pretty bad and if the cable is moved around, even just a bit, my right channel cuts out. I'm probably going to send them back for a warranty claim, but have been thinking about what I'll get next.
I tried a pair of Shure 530s on a lark over the weekend and was blown away. The problem is, I can't afford to pay full retail for them. I've looked in the FS forum and am following a few leads, but am wondering what the next step up would be while hopefully keeping things to under $200.
I listen to mostly rock/punk-rock (Rise Against), jazz with female vocals (Diana Krall, Melody Gardot, etc) and classic orchestral. Source is an un-amped iPod video.
