Nope , intend to get a seperate mic :). i'll look at review of those. Any more suggestions i should take a look at?

Prefer a neutral sound with accurate and expandable soundstage, the bass should go deep when needed and the presence shouldn't overshadow the mids, highs shouldn't be too bright.
Overall just looking for some accurate sounding headphones :).

Never tried with walkman z before can bring it down to test =]

Damm, Cause other then that i only have an IPod touch2g. It probably wont bring out the quality of the fa-004 if my walkman z doesnt synergize well with it.

From what I read, TF10 is more similar to the 3.Ais than the 4s. So if you're looking for a complementary pair, you should probably go with the 4.Ais.

Hi, pls recommend some IEMs for my requirements.

Rig Sansa Clip+
Type of usage: Music only
File format: 320kbps mp3
Genre of music: rock/metal mostly.
Budget: Max $150

Currently using Beyerdynamic DTX100 for 1.5 years.. It is generally good but I find has slightly too much mids and thus very fatiguing to my ears. Also would prefer a wider soundstage than the DTX100. I do not like those with too much treble/sibilance though.

Thanks
