IEM for gift

[$hadow]

Hey guys what's up
First of all thanks for all for guiding me buying cowan em1 for myself but as the thread says I want one as a gift on my brothers birthday.
He is turning 18 next week
So as per his requirements he will use it foe following purposes
1. Lots of movie watching
2. Music for about 25 to 30 mins daily
And also with his laptop for normal usage

Now my budget: I am will to spend anything around 2k.
One more question how is this hifinage website for buying products
I was thinking of buying this *www.hifinage.com/index.php?page=sh...d=103&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=29
or should I gift him this Cowon EM1 In-Ear Headphone: Amazon.in: Electronics
Waiting for reply

I only want IEM nothing else. And who is going to carry speakers with himself. IEM suggestions are highly required [MENTION=137025]kalam_gohab[/MENTION]

Get him the Signature Acoustics C-12...

Or, wait for [MENTION=82407]sandynator[/MENTION] to reply...
He's most probably goona recommend the tpeos tank or popular...

 

[High-Fidelity]

T-Peos Popular: Better bass definition, tightness and control sounds open and costs merely 2k. Sound score: 7.8/10
Signature Acoustics C-12: Bass-heavy IEM with boomy mid-bass, slightly veiled mid-range and costs 3.2k. Sound score: 7.3/10

Decide yourself.

Anything more than 2k would be too much for him. How is popular?

Acoustics cost more than what I have in mind.

First thing first, sound is quite subjective what I prefer you guys may not like it.

SA C12 is decent buy around 2200- 2500 but they sound crowded to me not that open & airy sounding. They are not good for fast paced tracks but performs better in slow paced tracks. There is huge mid bass bloat somewhat uncontrolled which drowns the midrange to some extent. Vocals not that clear for me.
Pristine Note did tremendous job for their first IEM. SA C12 has good midrange considering it as Bass Heavy IEM. They are very warm & smooth sounding just that the Midrange seems blanketed due to heavy bass.


[MENTION=159164]$hadow[/MENTION] , If you are ready to spend for Signature Acoustics C12 then....
Your best bet would be Vsonic VSD1S @ 38.40 USD with warranty, free shipping & almost no customs.....
VSD1S, Lend Me Ur Ears

Brainwavz R1 is also good option around 25 USD[1600 INR] after discount will definitely match Soundmagic E10 IMO.

 

[powerhoney]

^^ +1 to this...

@OP, your decision now...

 

[sandynator]

Sorry correction
Vsonic VSD1S @ 38.40 USd so around 2350 INR

Do the brands you suggested provide warranty in India???

 

[sandynator]

Lendmeurears are official resellers of astrotec, vsonic so you will get warranty. Just contact them.
One of the te member also confirmed that normally no customs levied for vsonic products bought from them.
