In-Ear Headphones for 400€

As the title already says I want to buy some good In-Ears for 400€ max.

They should buy available on amazon.

I really need your advice I've got no idea what to buy because I'm a total audio-noob.

Thanks for your advice and sorry for my bad English.  :)

I took a look at the Shure se425 most of the reviews where good but some say that the bass isn't that good...

Do you know if this is true?

Westone 4R or the westone w40 if you want more bass. SE535 otherwise

i'd recommend you to get used IEM, probably check headfi trading subforum

you guys that ask for bass head pounding  from ear buds just have me shaking my head. IEMs will not make your ears shake, they wont hit those low frequencies with massive amounts of power. I have the se215 and no, they are not bass heavy like my rockford fosgate 12" subs in my truck. that said, if you want bass, get headphones. if you want earbuds that sound good just buy yourself a set of se215 prices at $99. as you go up in price, you move away from the bass head, on into a community that is more concerned with meeting specific frequency ranges. 

 

plus you highend iems and headphones will require a DAC to be able to provide the frequencies and an amp to deliver the power necessary to drive the drivers.

1. Most likely you haven't heard the $1000 Shure SE846

 

2. You clearly don't know a lot about audio

you mean seppuku right?  ;)

 

I pair my se215 with fiio e06k to get that bit extra amplification (bass does sound noticeably more pronounced with the gain setting).also helps conserve the mp3 battery too.I still think the bass is plenty and good in the se215 unless you want to listen to those woop woop noise music.

precisely, it will get the frequencies but it wont make your ears go wub wub wub.
