Any kind soul can help? I'm sure by now some of you guys have had the battery depleted. Or you guys just buy another one?

Hi guys, any of you have replaced the E5 battery, mine needs replacement. I read it uses same battery as ipod shuffle, however i couldn't figure out which generation of ipod shuffle it shares the same type of battery.   Can any of you folks help?

The E5 should remember the volume you have set it to after you power it off and on again.   When the battery is totally depleted, after you plug in the power and turn it on, by default it's volume will be turned to the max so those using earphones beware and tune the volume down before you...

Any kind soul can tell me which Ipod Shuffle battery does the E5 uses?   My E5 battery needs to be replaced as it depletes after few minutes. I can't put it on usb charge as it gets full in few minutes and start giving me the hissing sound when on charge.   I just need to know exactly...

Anyone tried the S3? How's the sound quality paired with E5 & W3?

Hi guys, i'm currently using Cowon D2 8GB with 16GB SD Card, i have huge collection of selected songs i know i probably won't be listening to all of them but i prefer to have them stored together to keep everything in check, currently i'm running out of space and i find it not convenient to have...

Dedicated Winamp user here. Been using Winamp since day 1. Love the skin i've been using for nearly 10 years. Easy to customize, quick simple & takes little resources, comes with handly online tag function. Comes with lots of "optionals" but if you know how to use a computer you'd probably be...

I read your thread seems you have the EXACT same problem as mine. Loss of sound with a tap & fluctuating 90ohms...   I guess mine's gone for sure. I read some thread showing how to open up the grado, but i can't really open up the diaphragm compartment like what they say, sand off the bums &...

Yoga, does your headphone also suffer from high impedance on 1 side? Does it have sound imbalance, does the problem side burst/rattle during strong bass?   Now I'm stuck with 1 speaker, I'm in SE Asia so it's quite hard to send it back to grado, it'd cost alot to have it repair including...

The ohm is around 84 on the right, so i guess can't do anything yea? The sound on the right is totally gone now, not sure what went wrong. The cabling seems ok i guess it's the internal connection or position that went off. Now i guess the only thing left is to get another one... At least i have...

I just did a quick check on the impedance by connecting to the MS1 jack, it seems the left side is around 33ohms which is normal while the right side is 70ohms, this explains the lower volume on the right but not sure how it's related to earlier burst on strong bass.   So can you guys help...

A question on braiding 4 wires, can i braid 2 by 2 and then braid the 2 braided pair together? I though another reason to braid the cables is for better shielding. Or do i have to braid the 4 wires together then split them 2 by 2 after the split point?   Would there be any benefit if i wrap...

What about:   Robert Palmer - Doctor, Doctor Bad Case of Loving You Rosalia de Souza - D'Improviso Adrian Gurvitz - Acoustic Heart album

I am curious, if my player is capable of putting up sufficient volume to my earphone, do i really need another amp?   I hear people saying an amp improves the sound by giving more clarity & details, which I don't quite understand. And I'm not talking about the amp coloring the sound for...

I select the quality of my audio files. But as the title says it all, poor man can't really afford fancy amp etc.   What i want to know is the way of recabling as cheap & as efficient as possible. I have a can that has it's right side softer & tend to bliz easier during strong bass compared...

I'm wondering would the outcome be good if we use normal cheap wire & decent plugs instead of exotic audio cables?   I hear the capicitance of normal cables can be as low as the expensive ones, & I think the problem is the rigidity as normal cables don't come with good protection against...

it also burst early when the bass is strong. my location is not possible to send back to grado for repair. The difference is quite noticeable on higher volume.

Sorry i mean 250 pound can't type the symbol.   So clare to clarify the signature between W3 & W4?

I bought W3 after trying out IE8, W3 & W4, the IE8 really excels with the bass & soundstage, nothing to compete against. There's a tuning where you can turn the bass down which i didn't know back then.   I tried both W3 & W4, i'm a noob with Westone so when i tried out W4 i didn't really...

Is it true W4 excels in every aspect compared to W3?   Also where can we get deals for 250 a pair?

my MS1 is having problem, i think it had this problem since the start.   the left side is louder than the right, or should i say the right side's weaker, tend to bliz earlier during strong bass compared to left.   I have tried it on different source & setups, with & without amp, right...

Guys, just want to check with you, when you guys connect your earphone to these 2 amps and to a player, when no sound is playing do you hear noise? It's noticeable when no sound is playing.   I tried connecting the earphone directly to my player & pc but doesn't give much noise (maybe the...

But would really appreciate some other alternatives to have some idea. I don't like to jump in without much info though i can read up on the net myself but if you guys are using earphones similiar grade to IE8 please share some info.

Ok thanks for the advices.

Yes of course testing is important but gathering more infos on alternatives.   I don't need good noise isolation since i want to use it outdoor & it's dangerous with too good isolation you can't hear cars passing by.
