Hi guys,
first post here, hope i dont sound noob here.. have read up a lot of threads here..
currently im using sony ex71, am looking at ER6i, and shure e2c/e2g, and also maybe UM1? the price difference between the er6i and e2g is quite alot.. so wonder if its really worth the diff..
checked at SE, $219 for er6i, and $169 for shure e2g (dunno if they have e2c).. and UM1 i forgot already..i think also under 200..
the current earphone im using...the wire near the earphones frayed..exposed..the rubber some sorta become v thin and gave way exposing the wires..im using scotch tape to cover it..
may i know for the 3 mentioned..which one is the best bang for bang? and also... important is the built of the earphones and wire...
i sometimes find the sony ex71 too bassy, altho it did a very good job when im listening to bassy songs..
i mostly listen to pop, classical, and a bit of dance... ive read up that the er6i is more of clarity and shure e2c boost bass more... out of the 3...any of them is like, best of both worlds? or rather jack or of all trades... good bass and good treble..
i know people will ask me go down have a try.. which i will do so defintely..but i think standing there n listening for less than 5 mins...den i make decision ..like no difference..so im seeking opinion of those who already owned both, or either of them...to see what they think, compared to the sony ex71, or not...
lastly, any bad thigns about getting second hand earphones? they definitely beat the mkt price like hell, but ive heard about good earphoens turning bad after they come in contact with strong magnet or something..is this true?
sorry i forgot to mention ill be using it on my PC, and 1st gen ipod shuffle, or ipod nano gen 2, but more of the first 2..
thanks in advance !!
