With IE8 I tried several earplugs - tried with Sony and Ultimate ears. But Comply is almost perfect. It stays in ears even when I walk or run firmly.
X10 are very good headphones but bass is weaker then with IE8 and soundstage is smaller. In fact soundstage with IE8 is very big. |

Just to change the emphasis here...
At each price point, eg £50.00 etc what would be the best
1) in ear 'phones or
2) over ear headphones?

Under $77 USD I like the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 3 for an IEM. If you are looking for buds I really like the Yuin PK1 at about $150 USD. At $250 I like the Westone 2, I would like to try the DBA2 IEM from Russia.

Don't know why but I have only just come across this thread
I am using a pair of Shure SE530 IEMs. Expensive, yes but very good. I really don't know how they manage to produce the the base that they do! Overall I am very pleased with them, they work very well with the Voyager. Below is a more technical description: [Quote] Optimized for listening to high-quality recordings and lossless formats, the Shure SE530 utilizes three balanced armature drivers - one dedicated tweeter and dual woofers. Additionally, integrated passive crossovers ensure that high and low frequencies remain distinct and defined. The result is an incredibly wide and detailed soundstage, distinguished by precision highs and robust bass. This innovative triple driver configuration is first in class for universal fit, sound isolating earphones. [Quote] Hope this is helpful to Graham and anyone else looking for IEMs Les |

That description is mouth watering, less! The SE530's have a good review on What Hifi Sound and Vision. As do the IE8's and the X10's and more... It's a pity we can't audition in-ears to compare them and get the ones that best suit our personal tastes. Or has anyone found a way to do this?

A few of the members that live close by could do a group buy where each members puts down a portion of the cost. Each tries them and at the end one buys it at a reduced cost, then all the participants get a portion of their upfront expense back.

Good idea. Presumably some alcohol wipes could be used to clean or sterilise the tips/buds that go inside the ear? Alternatively the shared cost could include ordering some spare tips for anyone wanting a unused set for their trial? |
