Spec me a replacement IEM

[mdixson]

Right - I have had my Shure 530's for a long time (~6 years) now and they have a few cosmetic problems so I have decided to replace them.

In terms of usage - exsclusively with my iPhone 6 and a mixture of Apple lossless and Spotify premium content. I don't have a particular interest in carrying around a portable amp as bag space is already at a premium on my commute. I use the triple flanges with the 530's as they offer the best isolation whilst on the train to work.

So what is out there I am happy to spend similar money to the lazy replacement that is the Shure 535's. Cheers.

Only £35, sounds like my Etyomic which costs much much more. I can't believe these are £35 tbh. I bought them blind but for £35 it was worth a pun.

6 different sets oftips, 1 of which are Comply. 2 sets of leads, inline remote, case and 1/4" adaptor.

Hmm will they really compare to the 530s? I know I'm being brand/price snob by saying this but in my experience you get what you pay for.

It's £35, what do you have to lose?

If you don't think it's good, throw it in the travel bag as spares.

That's my thinking and was pleasantly surprised.
