IEM under 2k

9 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/iem-under-2k.132986/

I am using Philips earphones worth Rs. 300 max till now. Otherwise I use el cheapo ones which are worse than the Philips. This earphone is bad honestly. Even the default iPod earphones are much better.

PMP: iPod Classic 80GB
Music: Rock, Classical (Indian and western), Metal, Old Hindi. Not much of hip hop or trance.

Beatles, Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Jasraj, Ravishankar are regularly played.

Requirements: IEM (want to try this, never used before) which can produce a very good and clear sound with decent bass.

Budget: Max. 2k. (Kindly suggest best option under 1k and 2k both).

I will suggest Philips SHE9550. It is a great deal for the price(1999). And the implementation of sound stage is exceptionally done. I looked behind me, beside me number of times.. thinking that there is kind of music coming. But actually it is from my Ear phones. Go for it.

I'll check it out. I also found Head Direct RE2 and MEElectronics M9 to be good options upon googling. Any idea about those?

I don't know about those. But sound magic PL30 is decent and has nice features, goodies under the hood. Check those out.

Sure thing! Looks like a good option too.

RE2 & PL30 is a good choice. Also check Brainwavz M1 & if u can increase the budget go for Brainwavz M2.
