Okay, I love my Senn 650s. They are fantastic. But, I currently live in the noisiest place in the world - a college campus. I bought the UE Super fi. 5 pro thinking it would be as good as the 650s. I have found it lacking and not quite up to par with the 650s. Don't get me wrong, they are a big step up from the $20 canal headphones I had back in the day, and more comfortable than them too.
But, they aren't comfortable enough, and I hate having to lay on my back while I listen to music and try and block out my neighbors above me.
To this end I have come to you. Are the UE-10s what I want? I want:
-something that will be comparable with the 650s
-something that will work with my total bithead amp (the UE-5's gave a hiss when attached directly to the amp, and with the little impede thing [forgive me for not know the term] included it cut out tons of volume and made performance terrible).
-something that will allow me to lay on my side
-something that is more comfortable than the UE-5s. (How comfortable are the UE-10s really, I mean with the soft parts added)
I have read a few reviews on the UE-10s, but nothing comparing them to what I really need them compared to (the stuff I already have).
I like the idea of them being portable but better quality, and more comfortable. Is it worth $1k to upgrade from what I already have?
Thanks,
