Also, what do people with er-6i's do about filters since ER doesn't make them anymore?

Hey guys, I've been out of the audio game for a while so I don't know if stuff has passed me by, but I bought Etymotic Research ER-6i IEMs in about 2006. My foam tips wore out after a couple years and I haven't really used the monitors much since then out of sheer laziness in not getting new...

Thanks bud. The situation is a little bit time sensitive but I'll give it a look.

Thanks for your response.  These seem a little bit hard-to-find and a little bit out of the price range unfortunately.  I appreciate the tip though, I'll keep an eye out.

Sorry, tried this thread in the help/recommendations forum but no response in 4+ hours and this is a somewhat time-sensitive concern.   Hey guys. Long time no post. I'm back to ask the reliable and knowledgeable users of head-fi about headphones that would be best suited for monitoring audio...

Hey guys.  Long time no post.  I'm back to ask the reliable and knowledgeable users of head-fi about headphones that would be best suited for monitoring audio during the filming/production of a movie.  Obviously the priority with these headphones should be accuracy and neutrality and then...

nice man.  good job.  fun enclosure too. i've recently nearly completed my first cMoy as well... i've soldered all the parts to the board and now it's time to set up my enclosure but i'm a bit stuck... i'll save my questions for another thread though

Ok.  I kind of had some of the same thoughts.  Thanks for the referral to diyaudio.  Since there is no build plan or anything for this out on the net it would definitely be easier DIY audio newbies like us if we found a comparable project on diyaudio.  Thanks for your feedback.

Howdy all.  Is anyone at all familiar with the Thodio iBox?  pictures and info here:  http://www.thodio.nl/english/products/ibox   it's a brilliant looking little portable amp/stereo but it's really expensive.  my friend told me about it and said he wants one but can't afford to buy an...

Thank you both. It seems like the JBL's are worth using for a couple more years. In the meantime I will save up for a really worthwhile upgrade... unless there's a deal I just can't ignore on the PSB's. Anyway, thanks again. appreciate it.

Personally I've got a very limited knowledge about speakers and audio in general (though over the years I've tried to pick things up here and there) but my dad passed these speakers onto me as I was in the market and they were his spares (JBL N28, Northridge Series) and I was just wondering if...

I don't have much listening experience as far as headphones go (I only have the audio technica ath-ad700's, grado sr-60's, and etymotic ER-6i's), nor do I have basically any experience with amps and such... but assuming the sr-80 is similar to the sr-60, it is a good listening experience but...

also, i'm not much of a DIY-er but i truly appreciate your post about it nightfire. that will be invaluable information later on. right now I can barely construct a cMoy amp by myself, but now that winter break is coming up i can finish up that project and post some pictures. hopefully it will work.

I will check out all of the recommendations so far, but I suppose I should note that perhaps the dance party aspect of the speakers should play less of a role in your suggestions than should the fact that I'll be more often using them for "critical listening" - by this i just mean I want a high...

hey, sorry everyone, i've had some computer troubles lately. let me read through these posts right quick.

oh, whoops. haha. didn't realize the thread would be over so soon. oh well.

i would in fact love to have one of these. i could sure put one to use with new speakers i'm probably getting soon.

A while back I posted about wanting to get speakers in the 300-400 range, not interested in surround sound, and a few people suggested i get PSB Image B25's and a Pioneer Elite A-35R amp/receiver/whatever it is. I was pretty close to ordering a pair of those speakers for 300 from Saturday Audio...

wow, you paid $80 for those? you can find the Etymotic ER6i online for around that price, maybe even cheaper and they are much better. check it out: Etymotic ER6i-BLK-C - Isolator Earphones - Black - ER6I-BLK-C - Buy.com ** note on there that you can get $10 off your order if you are a...

Thanks a lot. I agree about the Yuins. I'll probably recommend those to him first and see what he thinks about them. They should be perfect for him, really... but I'm going to see if he'd consider the sennheiser cx300 and the Jays j-Jays. I don't know too much about those two so I'm going to...

thank you. yeah, i'd like to encourage him to try an IEM, but they just don't serve his purposes. I'll definitely look thoroughly through the buyer's guide. I'm trying to stay away from generic models because we could find those easily because for those you don't really consider high end...

Ahh. Thanks so much. I completely forgot to even check that.

I'm trying to hook my friend up with a good pair of earbuds (he wants to be able to hear people talk while he has them in his ears, so IEMs are not an option) but he's not too keen on spending $80 for Yuin PK2's. Are there any other cheaper earbuds I could suggest to him, perhaps as low as the...

ok, thanks to odigg I have the pot and the protoboard for free. what a great guy! now, here's my true final bill of materials from digikey. can someone double check it and assure me that i have all the necessary parts?
