UE 5EB or ER-6i or which IEMs for powerful bass?

[Slivester 0]

Just got myself a iPod Video (5.5) Sunday evening. Now I am on the hunt for IEMs, since finding iPod providing a rather neutral sound setting, awfully lack in bass for me.

 

Which IEMs do you guys recommend for bass emphasised performance?

 

Thanks in advance!

nv get 5eb... but it does provide the heaviest bass on earth for IEM... ety is known for tiny bass... for bass, um2, e5 and e500 is the one...

I'd recommend trying them out yourself in either SE or Jaben.

seriouly dude,if u really wanna get e5b,pls try it 1st before getting it.

 

IF u are really sure that is the kind of sound of music u like then get it .

yupz...try first...but if you are a basshead then the 5EB should be your cure

I agree with most pple abt the 5eb. Only get it if you are a basshead. The bass just so... overwhelming.

sf5pro has very good bass for me. solid tight punchy bass without being boomy, even when i kept cranking up the volume which i felt invited to. like what aron said, it's like driving a ferrari, it just gets better as you continue revving.

There is only one for bassheads: The E5. The UM2 is a little bit more balanced while the 5EB really does make a mess when dealing out bass...

for warmer bass go for westones... um1/2

for punchy and tight bass, UE sf3/5 pro

 

Go for 5eb only after you have tried everything else and they dun satisfy u.

The bass on those is Really muddy and muffles everything else.

Only a true basshead like xErTiNi will appreciate it.

If he really like bass that is Really muddy and muffles everything else.

then for $100 and below,EX71 would suit him well..

But then there will be a lack of isolation (IMO)

 

(referring to thread starter..)

Of cause not.

Since he is still using EP630 now..

the comfort and isolation would be a great upgrade for him.

But not the clarity..

 

 

Last time when i first got it,it is considered by me as the best earphone until i got the cresyn e630 and im716..

I guess I will heed to the advice here, head down to try them out. Ah, kind of tough for 5EB eh?

 

I will be looking out for the UE sets then. Thanks guys!
