Review of Inearz re-shelled UM Pro 50 and Comparison to the original Westone UM Pro 50
Thank you for the interesting comparison twister6. I saw the InEarz-reshelled Pro50 have MMCX connector. Is it the one inherited from the original Westone or InEarz offers MMCX connector as well?- KLS

Using IEMs with in-flight entertainment systems.
I think my bad english has got you confused. I don't own any customs. What I meant was, on a plane or train, with shallow fit universal IEMs I have to increase volume more than I usually do in quiet environment. I actually bought a pair of ER-4 for the sole purpose as traveling IEMs. The...- KLS

The FitEar CIEM Impressions Thread
Hi AnakChan, thank you for your thoughts. I admit that I didn't search thoroughly, but did you post any review on the MH335DW-SR? I realized that you had Ortofon eQ-7 and Ocharaku Kaede in the past, how would you compare the MH335DW-SR to them regarding midrange? I owned the eQ-7 and...- KLS

Fitear Aya
My information might be old... FitEar doesn't disclose the drivers and network configuration of Aya purposely, because they want their customers just to enjoy the sound without any bias based on the specifications of the IEMs. However I think you can more of less speculate the drivers...- KLS

Using IEMs with in-flight entertainment systems.
Do custom IEMs provide more noise isolation than universal fit IEMs? I find that I have to volume up more than usual using universal fit IEMs.- KLS

Move over AD700 and other mid-fi headphones, Onn is in town!!!... Who??? (Canadian's REJOICE!)
I have similar experience as well. I bought a pair of open headphones, Sanwa Supply MM-HP116 for $8, thinking of taking the headband to use with my KSC75. However when I listened to these I was surprised at how 'right' they sound. No bloating bass, no piercing highs, no muddy sound. In my...- KLS

Couple of questions, coming from full-size user.
In my opinion, unmodded SM3 is lacking some edge in the high mids. Some head-fiers replace the stock paper-like filters of SM3 and tweak the sound to their liking with other materials like foam. Do some search on the locked SM3 thread will show you precious information on this ^^ Although...- KLS

[GUIDE] Sonic Differences Between DT770-DT990 Models & More
Quote: Thanks for the comparison! I was thinking to get the 435S for their soundstage, bass, and low impedance, but from what I read, the dryer midrange might be a disappointment. I am spoiled by some really good quality mids from IEMs. So the search for full-sized headphones...- KLS

Earsonics SM3 Appreciation Thread - Third Time is a Charm?
Quote: I agree with you I bought a pair of UM3X last month, since then I have been using the UM3X daily. I prefer UM3X to SM3, for its more present high mids, consistent perfomance on all type music, and the friendly Y-split of UM3X ^^ What meurglys0 said seems to make...- KLS

hasanyuceer, for your information (in case you miss this awesome chart): average_joe's tips choice and comparison I have a pair of custom eartips (from Earsonics) for my SM3, but I prefer the Sensorcom double-flange more. Easy to fit and don't sound as warm as the custom eartips. The...- KLS

Westone UM3X EQ and Tips question
SM3 and UM3X is not the same, but I find that this chart is very useful. When playing tips on IEMs with narrow nozzles, just like the UM3X, it is good to prepare a set of 'spacers' (the plastic tube you can find in the comply tips), so that you can fit tips of different aperture on your UM3X.- KLS
