Hi
** I am planning to buy upto $50 headphones from US thru a friend...so please give me options ****
Background:
I am kinda a n00b in audio gear especially compared to the amount of knowledge people have on this forum...I currently am using Dell earphones (came with my XPS 1530) and find them very good..However I am giving these to my sis along with the lappy, since I have shifted to a desktop . Now I am in the market to buy some audio gear for home use (portability not such a big factor) and using them for Bluray movies etc and some music...My budget is around 1500 can go up to 2k if I can get something significantly better
Questions:
So her go all my questions (n00b):
1. Should I buy IEMs or Headphones? I have been using IEMs but somehow I have always found headphones very enticing and am inclined towards getting headphones...dont know because its my perception that something big can be more durable and sound better
2. Which are the best headphones in this category?
3. Which are the best IEMs in this category? I have heard a lot about Creative EP 630 and Soundmagic PL30 but dont know much about the other brands which people seem to favor a lot on this forum...like Brainwavz etc
4. Any other details you need to answer my query?
Thanks in advance
