I need suggestions for a good pair of earphones

[cyberxtremer]

Hi,

Recently my pair of nokia earphones (The ones you get with Nokia N91) fell down and broke. i was using using them for over 5 years and it was unbeatable. But now I have to buy a new pair.

I am looking for a set that provides me the best clarity and depth. I mean my broken pair was good in every aspect

Can anyone suggest me a new set of earphones?

Budget : Upto Rs. 1000


I also heard about TekFusion. Are these better than the N91 stock pair ?

Defiantly better than any stock headphone.

Have you tried out the N91 stock earphones ? No offence, but i havent seen a better pair till today

It's must be good but go check your self then tell what the difference between both.
I have lots of headphone and IEM . It's comparable to my sound magic e10m
Which has a cost of 2.5k. Go chech some review on techenclave you can find your answer their .

or if you can increase your budget a bit more so definitely VSonic GR99

No other IEM in the market has a performance like GR99 at this price in the market only if you can increase your budget.

Meelectronics M6 if you are "BASS" lover
Soundmagic PL11 : Nice mid and low frequencies
Soundmagic PL21 : good all rounder

PS : I love bass and using meelectrnice M6 from last 1 year and day by day it is going great. Apart from bass it has more then expected mid and lows

Thanks for linking me to this thread. Wondering why I didnt see it before. But this is too huge a list and makes me more confused

Thanks, these look good. Can you suggest me a good shop in Pune where I can get a chance to test these, alongwith other earphones ?

Hey do you still have Nokia N91 ?? I am fan of that phone. Unbeatable sound quality in earphones.

That is why I posted in your klipsch S3 IEM thread that you didn't make a good VFM purchase. VSonic GR99 which is much cheaper than the klipsch S3 you bought and also VSonic GR02 Bass Edition is much better than the klipsch S3 you bought.

Yes I still have them although the HDD doesnt work anymore. The sound quality is anyday better than my iPOD classic. I was using its earphones for last 5 years when my ipod fell down 2 days back with the earphone's jack hitting the floor and bent completely. Perfect build quality and sound.


Today I tested a pair skullcandy pair (costing Rs. 1500) and the sound was good, but a little high treble and low depth. So now that I gave an example, it will be easier to suggest a good pair. I have read a lot of reviews but I would like to soundtest before buying any pair.

I need a pair with very good depth same or better than my older ones. You know the phone and its sound well, maybe you can suggest better

See I am personally using ME6 so you can check out mine anytime.. regarding audiophile place, so there is nothing in Pune. Try Pristinenote Mumbai or may be next year, Havok Nation pune will be the biggest audiophile place of Pune

I was thinking exactly the same - to have a place only for audiophiles. Best of luck with your store il surely visit it . For now, am confused amidst so many brands and reviews that I cant make a purchase without testing it myself

oh ...that was quite unfortunate.

Well I am not an audiophile so I dont have too mcuh idea about the audio stuffs , but AFAIK , N91 is one of the best portable consumer device and I heard its sound only with stock earphones . But it amazed me.

Currently I am using Nokia N95 8GB with the SO called Tekfusion Twinwoofer , which is actually a little bit over-hyped earphone.
I am content with the sound quality , but it could have been better.
Though , N95 8gb is pathetic when it comes to sound quality in earphones.

Tekfusion twinwoofer is a very over-hyped earphone in the thinkdigit forum only and on flipkart ofcourse. There is nothing special about this earphones on other forum. This earphone has an artificial clarity in it's sound, treble bumped. The "best" word to describe twinwoofers sound is "bright".
