EJ, any update after further burn in?  Have you settled on a set of the stock tips or tried any alternatives? Mainly wondering if the detail opened up any after more use or perhaps different tips.    

Mark, great write-up! I will be getting a pair.   You wrote about paring them with a Fiio - which one did you try, and can you describe the change? I have an E6 - just wondering if I should bother using it with these, or keep things streamlined and use them straight from my Fuze.

My 9 month old xcapes have developed a short at the end of the jack. They only play on 1 side, but if If I press on the end of the jack, where it meets the cable, I get normal sound on both sides.  I really like the phones, and wonder if it is possible and worth it to get then repaired?  ...

ClieOS, how would this compare to a cmoyBB?   Also, have you paired the E6 with an Xcape IE? I find the IE to be good straight from my Fuze, but it does need fairly high volume. Hoping something small like an E6 could take the xcape to a higher level. Maybe more bass definition and...

Definitelty something wrong. Mine sounded great right out of the box.   I have literally had dozens of pairs of IEMs - ECCI PR401, Westone 2 and UM3x, Turbines, FS Atrios, Meelec a151, Sennheiser IE7, etc...  and these strike a great balance of detail, wide spacious sound, warmth, and bass...

You either have a bad seal or a bad pair. I got mine a few days ago, and they are excellent. For me, the bass is great - right where I want it to be, especially compared to xcape v1.

Quote: How does the IE version compare overall to ECCI PR401? I had some V1 Xcapes, but the bass was not satisfying. I also felt there was some sort of haze or veil on the midrange that could be grating. I have some PR401s on the way , and hope the bass would be in the same 6-7 range...

I've got a pair to sell. Feel free to pm me if interested.

I've been using the single flange tips from my Nuforce Ne-6 most of the time. For some reason I wasn't able to get a good seal with the included tips.   The comply t400 foams are really good with these for better isolation and a slightly warmer sound.

Quote: Not much of a DIY'er I'm afraid. I have the L6, but I have been reluctant to dive into using an amp with my Fuze if I don't need to. I'm still getting used to the Xcapes (coming from bassier phones), and with a good seal the bass is pretty good without the +3 adjustment.  Still...

Thanks for the heads-up on this new product!   Have you tried the A10 with Sunrise Xcapes? My potential setup would be Rockboxed V1 Fuze < Fiio L6 LOD < xcape.   Seems like Xcape would be a good match if the Re0 is. Most say the Xcape doesn't need an amp, but I wonder if the A10 with...

Nuforce Ne-700 gets my vote

I've only had mine for a few days now, but I wanted to add another postive impression.   Haven't spent a ton of time with them yet, but these are really good for the money.   About the same amount of bass as the NE-6/7, but considerably more detail in the mids are treble. The best way I...

Has anyone tried to reshell this model into customs?   To make a long story short, my dog chewed up my Westone 2 earphones (the longer story starts with me offering to loan them to my wife...) Both housing are cracked open into 2 pieces, exposing the armatures and wiring inside. As far as...
