Best Bang for Buck IEM!!!!!
« on: September 16, 2010, 11:42:38 AM »
Guy's help me choose a good bang for buck IEM!!!

I'm trying to build a wish list for myself which i plan to buy by x-mas!!!

I wan't IEM's because of portability. I currently use both a Koss porta pros and a ksc 75s, so i want something that will sound significantly better. I wan't something with a good price/performance ratio.

I usually listen to progressive rock and J-rock, but I am open to all kinds of music. My current favourites are, Coheed and Cambria, Muse, The Mars Volta, L'arc~en~ciel, Malice Mizer, Versailles, Bamboo, Typecast, Franco, Owl City, Alice in Chains, Michael Jackson, Simon and Garfunkel, Jim Croce, Girls' Generation, T-ara, Lady Gaga  and Eminem!!!! lol....

There is no world for tomorrow!!!
If we wait for today!!!

IEM's - A4tech MK-650-G(lol)

I don't wanna limit my budget as long as the price/performance ratio is good.

Soundmagic PL11 for below 1k, Westone 2, IE7, IE8 and UM3Xif you want to extend to 5 digits or more, that's all based from what I've tried and what I liked. :)

Leo only tried them for a few minutes. :) It's more like an IE8 with a lot better bass control, and mids.

anything that will suit you bro, just don't go for OEM/FAKE ones.
try the Philips SHE9750 for 2.3k only at Power Mac stores, they are much better than the PL11 IMO. ;)
