IEM recommendation

[Remuz]

Hi, 

 

I'm looking for recommendations on a pair of IEMs and if need be, something like a FiiO E11. My overall budget is around $300. 

 

After doing some research, I'm considering the Westone W2 but I'm sure there are better options out there.

Sadly, a lot of the stuff I see recommended in threads is not available in Europe, so please use amazon.co.uk as a reference. 

 

Also, which android music player would you recommend i use? The default one is shit. 

 

Thanks in advance,

Reeckz

Don't need an amp for IEM's 
Etymotic ER-4PT, don't bother with Shures, since their high end models are satan.

Klipsch X10/X10i and X11i are really nice. I love my X10's.

No offense, and don't get defensive.

I can't find anything on there that's remotely close to my $300 budget. What did you have in mind?

Thanks, these look really nice, I never really considered shures in the first place, they seem kinda flat and boring.

Treble is trouble, or is it razor blades? I can't remember and I don't want too. Bass response also left town along with my girlfriend.

Anything razor puts out is trouble really. I never liked any of their products, had a Deathadder, was replace within a week. Felt like it was made of the same plastic my kid brothers G.I. Joe. 

 

Anyways, I don't think those will do the job, I'll be using these for the gym as well. And a few reviews mention moving a lot will cause the cable to cause some low-end noise, which I'm not really a fan of. =/

I use my Sennheiser IE60's at work (physical labor).
