The Monoprice MP9927 PG 208.. MP8320 (MEP-933)..The $7.11 club..
Is there a smaller size IEM that is on par with these? I don't really like the size of the 8320s as they were uncomfortable but they did sound very good!!- Lateness

Are Brainwavs betas recommended?
I bought a pair because they were on sale. That was good I thought, I am getting a good deal on a pair of headphones. But when I got them, they were awful. They crackle. They don't block out much sound. They don't get loud at all. The left side was unbalanaced. Yes they are a bargain set...- Lateness

Why does all my IEMs die?
OP, how did they break? I usually have the wires go bad. My favorite pair were some altec lansing headphones they no longer make. They lasted about 8 months and sounded great. However, most of my headphones die within 3 months.- Lateness

Repairing earbuds, something went wrong! (soldered off copper plating)
I was hearing some crackling on one side and I opened them up, and saw that they were kinda messed up. I turned on my soldering iron, and was fixing it, but then... I desoldered off the copper plating on the headphone speaker! I don't know how to fix this! The wire does not adhere...- Lateness

Samsung phones have bad quality sound?
I hear it on all of them besides the S3. It's too bad, they're the only ones that support voodoo sound and I can hear crackling as soon as I do simple things like turning off the screen. Oh well, no more Samsung phones for me. :/ I don't think it's software as my htc phones didn't have this...- Lateness

Samsung phones have bad quality sound?
Do you notice sound when you are using the touchscreen? It's a slight crackle. Only Samsung phones have this and bad audio jacks, I'm not sure why. With the continuum, I have removed the grip sensors and now there is only sound artifacts coming from me using the touchscreen, not as much as the...- Lateness

Samsung phones have bad quality sound?
I get a lot of audio interference with my samsung phones. For instance, my Galaxy S made strange crackling sounds when the touchscreen was used, my Epic was notorious for having a bad connection or solder and making the same crackling sounds randomly, and now my Samsung Continuum does the same...- Lateness

Best value for durability, comfort, sound quality, cost in that order?
I'm wondering what your opinions are on iems. I had a pair of mono price iem but they weren't at all comfortable, although they were good at everything else. I like the brainwavs but they break too easily. I've been using billets by munito but they broke recently too. I remember I used a pair...- Lateness

Galaxy S with Voodoo sound or iPhone 4?
Does anyone know how to make my headphones seat correctly? I always get disconnects. I have no idea why Samsung decides to round their headphone jacks. So dumb!- Lateness

The Open Pandora: An ultimate portable player?
I feel the title is misleading so people expect a good music player, and are confronted with a niche device that plays games and might play music well too. It may be clean, but so are cheaper devices, and it might be good, but its enormous and isn't marketed as a good player. No mention of...- Lateness

Galaxy S with Voodoo sound or iPhone 4?
My Galaxy S couldn't start anymore, so I have been using the iPhone 4. I did get a Samsung Continuum as well and put voodoo sound on it. I enjoy it more, it sounds much punchier, but there is something wrong with the volume buttons, even with voodoo (control) off. Hardware flaw, I'll have to get...- Lateness
