Hi guys
I am planning to upgrade from soundmagic PL-30 i have been using for the past year. My budget is around 2.5-3k INR and will be buying online from lynx-india or any other site you people suggest. I need better bass as PL-30 lacked bass, currently i have these in my mind;

Head-direct RE 2 with Fiio E5
Klipsch Image S2 Universal Earphones with Fiio E5
Nuforce NE-6 Earphone with Fiio E5
Soundmagic PL-50 Earphones with Fiio E5...

I usually use the earphones for watching movies/series on my laptop and listening to music on my Nokia E72

Please suggest which one will be the best fit for me
 
^^ Hold on, am I reading your sig right ? You have a Triple fi 10, RE0, rE1, RE2 and an M6 ? :O

@OP - The VBs are good but they have a sibilance issue and if you listen to music with a lot of vocals it will not sound that great.
 
What about NE7m ? will it support both my lappy ? will the mic support my nokia E72 ?
which online dealer do you suggest ? can i use my visa debit card for online shopping ?

NE7M is great for bass, lacks upper mids and highs. Some prefer it that way. Buygamingstuff here on TE sells them and currently he's selling 2 NE7m for 4K. If any other TE member is interested, you could get it for 2K, Great price IMO. Have a look at market section.

Hippo vb is sibilant especially with brightly recorded songs. Might not be a much concern for some, whereas might irritate others.

If you're looking to get rid of the RE-0 or the RE-1 don't think of anyone else but me, will buy either :D

@ NoName01 Prime has the stuff at about the same price as buygamingstuff if you'd prefer buying it online.

RE0 is my favourite, so will not sell it anytime soon. Might sell RE1, after checking it with sparrow. Will let you know for sure, if I decide to sell it. :)

I was actually looking for something with smoother highs compared to RE0, vocals better than RE0, closer to pl50 and a bit more bass. Perhaps RE252 might fit the bill, might get it. :p

Why do you need so many IEM's when u have the Triple Effing Fi??

Actually TripleFi is not my favourite IEM, it's fun but perhaps I am more of analytical guy, I am more interested in mids and TripleFi isn't good there, especially with female vocals. Among the IEMs I owned PL50 had the best female vocals followed by RE2. RE2 is really my most used IEM as it works with almost any kind of music. :)

Anyway, I hope you guys aren't making fun of me. :ashamed:
 
i have a friend who is also interested in Ne7M but i need to confirm that the mic will work on Nokia E72 and Nokia N900, aint the audio quality same on both NE7m and NE6 ? from what i read Ne7m is same as NE6 but with a mic. still confused between NE6 and NE7m.....also any other online dealers who would have NE6 - other than Lynx (read bad reviews about Amarbir).
 
If the Brainwavz M2 hadn't been sold out, I would have suggested to ditch everything and get that. See if you can still source them.

My next choices would be PL50 and Klipsch S4.

NE6 & NE7M are same. Just the mic difference and unfortunately mic doesn't work on Nokia phones.
