Sennheiser Momentum In ear - Repair
We’ve all been there. We put in our earphones and either one side doesn’t work, or it cuts in and out while you’re moving. Repairing earphones is a real pain. In most cases it’s better off to buy a new set. But sometimes you just get bored so... Recently I picked up a pair of Sennheiser...- tonglongjeff

Anyone have tips on recognizing a Fake IE80?
Hey Johnny, I just got a pair in. The box looks the same as the fake one you posted earlier. However the bass ports work and the engraving is laser cut properly. They also sound pretty good. I'm not sure if I should get a refund or keep them. Note that I paid about 130USD. What do you...- tonglongjeff

Shure SE846 Impressions Thread
Thanks for the impression. I didn't know there was even much difference in the 900 vs 900s.i thought it was mainly a packaging and advertising refresh with more accessories. Yeah it was a good deal. The guy bought 2 pairs on his trip to America. I live in NZ so I'm not sure about warranty. If I...- tonglongjeff

Shure SE846 Impressions Thread
Hey Moe, Thanks for the reply. That review is a MONSTER!! admire your hard work man. "as flat as a universal fit in-ear monitor as you are going to get" I couldn't agree more. I honestly thought there was some crossover issues because the highs and mids sounded so bound together but I...- tonglongjeff

Shure SE846 Impressions Thread
I listened to the SE846's for a brief 5 minutes yesterday. I was selling my UE900's and the buyer happened to have a pair of SE846's and let me try them. He had another new pair to sell for 950NZD (645USD). I wish I could afford them, but atm I'm too poor haha. My god, they sounded so...- tonglongjeff

Review by 'tonglongjeff' on item 'FiiO EM3 Open Earbud Earphones with In-Line Microphone (Black)'
Earbuds in general have fallen out of the public eye in recent years. The lack of a seal as well as ample amounts of sound leak have left this product sitting on your table at home while you take out your in-ear earphones instead for portable use. Though there are caveats to this design, I...- tonglongjeff

Reply to review by 'tonglongjeff' on item 'HiFiMAN HE-400i'
I WAS amping these with my schiit asgard 2. But I also tried using the HiFiMAN ef-6 which improved the bass slightly. I no longer have the 400i's or asgard 2 (reluctant sale) since I recently picked up a pair of hd800's- tonglongjeff
