-EQ wrote I just sold my shure se215(Bought them used for $65 without realizing some of the earlier ones were known for having defects after using them for a while) and need an upgrade. Im looking for a pair of iem's that will be my only one. I have heard the RE272 and I think I may need a little more bass, and the ATH ck10 are too expensive. I try to pay attention to every detail in the music I listen to: Dance, Goa/Psy, Hardcore, Hardstyle, House, Techno, Trance, Ambient/Chill/Lo-Fi Beat/Breaks, Drum & Bass/Jungle, Dubstep/Chillstep, Hiphop/rap, Heavy metal/screamo, classic rock, piano, guitar, alternative.
Also I do not need noise cancellation (the shure's block out too much noise) but I do want comfort and value. Something that will last my money (~$150 usd)

PS: Are these worth it? [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


I'd actually recommend the Turbine Pro Golds. I'm not positive if they'll isolate much less than the SE215s. That's kind of an inherent nature of an IEM. They'll also be a bit of a downgrade from the RE272.


The standard Turbines do isolate less than the SE215, so I assume the Gold will be similar.


I really haven't paid much attention to isolation levels...

I'm assuming you're in the US. You could get the AKG K181DJ or AKG K67, although I haven't seen a good review of the K67 yet. I don't like recommending things blind, but you'll probably be very happy with them.

The Pro 900 is excellent for electronic music. It's very bassy, extremely well-built, and portable if you need it to be.
