  Introduction:   After being a fond owner of the HIFIMAN HE-560 and HE-1000, I was thoroughly interested in the Edition-X that was announced somewhere during the early stages of December, 2015. While I wouldn’t call myself a long-time fan of HIFIMAN, I’ve enjoyed the interesting signature headphones they’ve come out with over the years. The HE-1000, to my ears, was a revolutionary experience upon first listen. It’s safe to say I had high expectations for the Edition-X that featured “trickle-down” technology from the HIFIMAN flagship.   I...

Note: I am not affiliated with HIFIMAN at all. I did not receive anything from them to review, nor did they have any influence on my final impressions/review.   About me:   As opposed to some reviewers out there, I’m usually hesitant to endorse a product unless it fully impresses me in terms of performance vs. value. Or it just sounds damned good.   I’m pretty brutally honest in regards to how I perceive a headphone’s strength and weaknesses. There’s no point in wasting your time, my time, or anyone’s time.   I think the reader should...

It's about time I warn prospective buyers how bad these are. Have tested them in stores, at home, and have concluded that these are exceptional fart cannons with a built-in toilet. Spend your money elsewhere.

Absolute steal at this price. Should have given a review on these a long time ago but unnecessary because for one simple fact. You either get a good fit on these and experience pure nirvana or dislike it for any possible conceived ideas. It's quite inaccurate to listen to people's opinions as well. Some people clearly state that the IE8 is much better than the Tf-10 but the Se530 is inferior. Others state the Tf-10 is worse than the ck-10s. There are even people that claim the tf-10 lack bass and the highs are sibilant. This all depends on...

Something struck me as odd the instant I saw these. Mine came in a pink version and for some reason they look exactly like the one on here. But I purchased mine in an electronics store.  This suspiciously looks like one of the counterfeit second-hand earbuds and the flimsy wax-blocker looks exactly like some I've seen on fakes.

Wow, what can I say. These came like-new and packaged perfectly from FlexPen76 with 100+ hours burn-in time. Compliments to him again =]  First Impression- The entire Sennheiser construction was very solid and the box was very attractive as representative of fine German engineering. I had no trouble ascertaining if the ones I got was real and at first I must say I was overwhelmed by all the included accessories. However, as stated by many users, all the excess tips were completely negligible and the only one that remotely fit in my ears was the...
