One of the good choices for your requirements would be the JVC FX650. I also listen to the same genre as yours and I have enjoyed this IEM upon auditioning. You can compare it to Westone W10, but this one needs to be worn over the ear so better to try them both first and see which one will be more comfortable for you. Audition units are available in both of our stores. :)

You are using the Fischer Audio Consonance. If you want you can also contact their service centre as the warranty is one year:

Fischer Audio Asia
45 Jalan Pemimpin, Foo Wah Industrial Building #04-01
6483 6355

For other options, you can take a look at one of our popular models, the JVC FX3X, audition units are available in both of our stores. :)

Hi.

I am looking for a set of headphones for movies watching. To be connected to onkyo 609. Receiver is not Bluetooth ready but heard about the Bluetooth adapter.

It's ok if it is wired but needs longer wires as will be watching at living room.

Any good recommendations?

Oh dear,did we miss you out? Sorry about that...Back to your enquires. The Shure Se215 is a great entry level iem and to upgrade and hear a significant improvement in sq, you might wanna look at the mid level models from similar brands like Shure, Westone, sennheiser for example..which would cost around $300-$400++. Then there are still some gems within your budget that you may prefer over the SE215. Here's some models for you to check out..JVC FXZ100 and JVC HA-650. Audio Technica ATH-IM02. Westone W10..maybe? We've got attractive walk-in promos for the Westones so might as well=:p So there..Do drop by our stores and try them all and many others if those don't suit you. See ya;)

Hi there, any budget we can work on? You will have much more options (and better SQ) if you choose wired and at most get a extra cable extension for your movies. Can be more cost effective too as good wireless headphones cost much more.;)

Hi, under $400? tried a parrot zik but felt some interference using the Bluetooth adaptor. Sound wise the zik felt pretty normal but cannot doubt the interface of volume control is cool.

If up budget, what would you recommend then? I would prefer something with a slightly wider soundstage compared to the SE215 which I find a bit small. When listening for long durations, after taking out the earphones will feel off-balance/slightly dizzy.
