I am just generally interested in what you guys think is the difference between a mid-fi, or hi-fi set of cans/iems.
Whilst in reality, almost all of the headphones discussed on here are hi-fi in the sense of the meaning (high fidelity) , there does seem to be a bit of a price tag on what the difference between hi-fi and mid-fi. The way I see it is that Hi-Fi starts around the area of he-400 and hd600 so around $400, from there up you start to enter into the realm of hifi. It does go unsaid that there are obviously headphones considered hi-fi that are cheaper, and mid-fi cans that are a little more expensive, but this is just the way that I see.
Personally, I believe that in a headphone should be considered I better or worse headphone by the frequency results, but they you need to take into account, that some people may head one headphone, and think that it sucks, because they don't like it, even though it has a good response.
TLDR; I just wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter.
please don't shoot me down, as i am in no way trying to educate anyone in anyway, in fact quite the opposite, I would like you to tell me your thoughts,
Thanks
