Earbuds

[SoLix]

Hi there , i'm looking for some earbuds under 50 dollars, i'm into bass, i usually listen to trap at high volume (pls don't give me 101 db)

I live in Europe , so the options are limited, I have some earbuds in mind ,but I want to hear from someone who knows about sound and stuff.

I know about sound and stuff, but what kind of stuff are we talking about. Stuff stuff? Stuff? Stuff stuff?  I am joking.

You should look at these.

Since you know about sound, here are couple of questions for you  

 

1) Earbuds 

You said 300II, what about Audio technica im50? 

2)Headphones

Sennheiser HD 598 agains Audio Technica ath-m50x vs V moda Crossfade m100

 

In future i want to buy One earbud and one Headphone. I really want to get good quality headphone/earbud as you know things about it, would like to hear something from you. Note that, i might buy also DAC/AMP (Fiio E18 for example). Or you have any other suggestions?

the im 50 are bulky and really sensitive, but has a very balanced sound.

I would not buy the HD 598 since the HD 558 sounds the same.

 

m50x: no soundstage, they are not flat in their sound signature, not that good highs, you cant change the pads because if you do the sound will kill your ears.

 

HD 558: okay sound stage for open headphones, balanced neutral(ish) sound.

 

Vmoda Crossfade m100: bass headphones, that would benefit from getting the XL pads.

 

I would also like to add the K612 pro, dt 770  and K553 pro to the list because they are really good for the price.

 

K612 pro: Huge soundstage and I mean HUGE really good for fps games, really tight bass, solid mids, the highs can be a bit harsh for some people over all a very natural and neutral sounding pair of headphones.

 

K553 pro: big soundstage for closed headphones, neutral sound, more bass than the k612, in many ways the k612 as a closed pair of headphones.

 

DT 770: More focus on the bass so the are a bit on the warm side when it comes to how they sound, with a good soundstage and they are comfy to wear.

Nah don't buy a dac/amp before you have tried them with your onboard. I have made a post that explanis the basics of amps and dacs with some suggestions with some of the best "budget" amps and dacs in it. I have it linked in my signature.

Well also the HD558 because they are cheaper HD598 with a little cheaper materials.
