Great, thanks for the reply. I think I'll go for the T1E then - price seems reasonable and I can get prime shipping with Amazon.

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy some ~40-50 dollar IEMs and these looks very promising. I have a couple questions that hopefully someone can answer: 1. How do these compare to similar price range IEMs like the Vsonic VSD3S and the Xiaomi piston? 2. Is this seller, SHENZHENAUDIO, trustworthy? (as...

Would that wire be what I might be hearing in the left earcup? If so, is that fairly normal? I only notice it if I make sudden movements with my head, it sounds like a faint clicking sound as if something is moving around a little bit.

What? No. But if I take the headphones off and shake them back and forth I can hear a bit of a clicking noise that's probably what I hear when they're on. Nope don't think so, as far as I can tell everything is pretty solid and fixed in place. That's why I'm having trouble putting my finger...

I just got these headphones two days ago. They sound really nice, easily the best I've owned. However, one concern/question to existing owners. I noticed that if I sort of shake my head side to side, I hear some sort of rattle sound or something, like there's something loose, only on the left...

  Quote:   I think this might be what happened actually :P. The day before I got these I was messing with Q-Tips before using my IEMs and I might have slightly clogged my left ear. But anyway, it's not as noticeable now. One thing I like a lot about these headphones is how balanced...

I have one question. They sound really good, but I noticed that particularly in my left ear, it sounds like my ear is slightly clogged or something. I don't know if this is from the headphones, or if maybe my left ear isn't as good as my right?

Mine just came in today :) Right off the bat: nice carrying case, two cable options is awesome, extra pads are awesome too. The pads are really soft and comfortable, which is important because... holy **** you guys didn't lie, these things clamp! Which isn't necessarily a bad thing...

Thanks for the impressions :) So excited to get mine (whenever that is).

Okay cool. I guess I'll have to wait and see what I think of it. I haven't really ever owned another relatively high end pair of headphones before, so I'm thinking (hoping) I'll like these a lot. Quote:  

What the heck?... now I'm a bit worried Quote:  

Yeah mine are still 'despatched oversees' as they've been since late March. I was hoping they'd come this week but it looks like I'll be waiting until next week.

Thanks for the update... still waiting on my pair like the poster a few posts back, says "despatched to oversees". Hoping mine don't have any build quality problems, but I'm glad the SQ seems better now for you.

I've had the same status, mine are shipping to Canada though (used the free shipping option).   Quote:  

Yeah, I'm quite sure it will work, and it looks good. Thanks again for posting.   Quote:  

Noted. But after doing some google searches it seems like this one should work.   Quote:  

I ordered a pair of these :) It was between these and M50s, but the fact that these were only $120 and shipped for free to Canada was a big plus. They also look really comfortable, where M50s are supposedly not always that comfortable. Neutral sound signature is also something that appeals to me.

Thanks for the heads up, ordered this yesterday :) Needed this for the Sansa Clip+ I also ordered.   Quote:  

Can you PM me too as well, please? Thanks

Hey guys, I want a pair of Open headphones. Budget is ~$200 max, ~$150 ideal. I'm not an expert with headphones, but I think I'd want a fairly balanced sound. I mainly listen to alternative rock. Example bands: The Flaming Lips, Arcade Fire, Radiohead, The National, Animal Collective   I...
