    Samsung Galaxy Ace 2: horrible sound quality with IEMs. Solution?

    I have just bought a Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (running Gingerbread), to replace both my dumbphone and iPod. However, the sound quality is horrendous (washy bass, crackling highs) when I use my Ultimate Ears 700 earphones (there is also a fair bit of background static). This appears to be due to...

    Jan Meier's website is listing a "Corda Cantate.2", and there is no photo appearing. I'm sure the site wasn't like that yesterday... Anyone know what the story is? I was already considering buying a Cantate, so an upgrade could be nice. Sounds like he might be bringing out an upgraded version...

    VERY unhappy with Shure SE110. Advice?

    Ordered some Shure SE110 earphones to go with my soon-to-arrive iPod Nano... the earphones arrived today and I am NOT happy. They sound far worse than my Sennheiser MX500's that cost 1/4 as much. How do they sound? Muffled, distant, and weak. And they hiss. They have similar bass response to...
