Earphones/Earbuds

[lukecrunchyou]

Hi I'm thinking of upgrading my current set of earbuds and I'm not too sure what to get.

I listen to bands like Mayday Parade, Coldplay, Panic at the Disco, All Time Low and some edm.

If you tend to listen to music while exercising, the SMS audio in ear wired / wireless sport is unrivaled. On the other hand, if you're looking for pure sound quality and are willing to pay a slightly higher price, go with the beyerdynamic idx 160 ie's or the sennheiser in-ear momentum's.

I'd never go back to wired head phones unless I was at home or traveling where I want/needed noise cancelation.

Budget? NuForce ne-600x. I got mine on massdrop for $8. Not at all accurate, but pleasant for music.

No matter what other earbuds I buy/try, I keep returning to Panasonic RP-HJE125E (or anything similar, I thik I had 120 etc). 125 doean't have mic. Of course, I don't buy anything too expensive, ~$30 is my limit, since all earphones tend to die quite fast on me, even though I'm quite careful with all of them. Anyhow, still haven't found anything better. You can easily find many, many people thinking the same.

Formatting on phone is weird. 

 

EDIT: or ignore my post since your budget is way above that.

My budget is around the price of Shure SE215 and Sennheiser Momentum In ears

I was thinking about getting the SE215s but ended up going with a pair of Vsonic's GR07s. My mom ended up washing them, but I loved them so much that I bought another pair, only to find out after a few days of drying the washed pair were actually fine! 

 

They're AMAZING for noise cancellation, really helps when studying and I can easily fall asleep with them in. They come with like 4 sets of earbuds so they'll most likely fit you, and are around the SE215 range I think too. 

 

Can't say a lot about the sound other than they don't have a Ton of bass, but it is enough for me and I generally listen to Hardcore or metal. Some songs that do have bass it is definitely enough, though. I 100% recommend them but they're the only audiophile IEMs I've used, so kinda biased ;p

Can vouch for SE215. Still like new after 1 and a half years.

I'm currently looking at the Shure SE215, Sennheiser momentum in ears and the Klipsch r6i. Which do you guys recommend.

depends on how you want your sounds to sound. Look up frequence response for them all, because their you can see how much bass,mids and highs they have.

I do not understand the frequency readings and what i really want(bass/mid/highs), like all i want is a great sound for the kind of music i listen to

Well that is kinda hard for another person to say because every person has their own preference, when it comes to how sound should sound. Some people likes more bass while other people wants less bass. I know that the shure 215 is the once with most bass in the shure in ear line up.

I like clarity of sound and voice, but a bass that's fairly high but not overpowering So what do you recommend?
