    JBL Synchros S200i: Heart and Soul

    Look what arrived!     JBL needs no introduction to the audiophile world, but perhaps they are better known for their professional line of products. Of course, as a company, their roots go back to 1945, where James Lansing left Altec Lansing to create JBL (James B. Lansing Sound). Later on...

      The RE300h is a recent product by HiFiMAN in the canalphone form factor. Priced at $49USD, the canalphones can be categorised in the entry-level segment. Whilst I only have a limited selection of earphones at this price range, I certainly do have high expectations of products even at the...

    HiFiMAN ES100: A Solid Entry

    Look what arrived!       The ES100 is HiFiMAN’s latest product in the earbud form factor. Judging by the threads in the “Portable Headphones, Earphones and In-Ear Monitors” forums, earbuds are indeed live and well within the head-fi community. Being an old head-fier, I have been through...

    how to protect your ear mold impressions during shipping

    So I received my ear mold impressions in their neat little box. Is it safe to just "surround" the molds with soft cotton balls, then close the box and surround that with bubble wrap?

    Audio Technica ATH-CKW1000: Through the Ages

    From left to right: ATH-CKW1000ANV, CK100, CK7, CM7Ti   There is a distinctive line when it comes to audio products that are under the category of monitoring and those under Hi-Fi. We see above a miniscule range of high-end (at least in their time) earphones that fall under both categories...

    Looking for the best canalphones

    As the topic states, best canalphones, that means no in-ear-monitors (no shure, ety,westone etc) From my past experience, i've tried the EP630's and i hated them. Comfy to some extent, although the sound was horrible, it sounded like a Steep u-shaped EQ'd canalphone. No midrange at all. So...

    Is there really a difference between the CM7 and CM7Ti?

    Just curious about the Sound quality differences. Some people say the bass on the CM7Ti is boomier compared to the Cm7. Although based on my research it hasn't really been proven. Can anyone here confirm which sounds better? And damn buying earphones is addictive, i just received my ep-630's...

    My EP-630's Arrived!

    Well out of the box, i think they sound rather great. Strong bass, upfront vocals. Although treble seems slightly veiled. Does anyone else have problems with treble? Regardless, i found the microphonics (whatever you call em) rather annoying and came up with a solution. Wear them as you...

    Warning to people taking apart the ksc75

    I noticed some buzzing on the right channel of the clip-ons. So i pretty much assumed that there must have been dust/hair vibrating against the driver. Be warned, that the driver is covered by a plastic grill, to remove the hair, remove the grill FIRST. I used a pair of tweezers and tried to...

    Is the Sony MDR-E888 really that weak?

    I've read reviews and comments on this site of people having their cables broken and their drivers destroyed. That is pretty much putting me off these earphones. However the comment that has pretty much disturbed me is someone having torn their e888 drivers by simply using a bass boost...
