Just wondering. Thinking of getting into the IEM game again and either these or the SE315 would be my choice. Are the 315's better than the 215's? I only ask as here in the UK they are £99.99/£139.99 respectively, so not much of a jump in price.   Cheers, MiG

http://www.gadling.com/2010/10/27/review-future-sonics-atrio-special-edition-headphones/   Only seen these mentioned here.. They same like an they have a decent price-point and have new drivers...    Was always found of the Atrio's so surely these must be awesome   Anyone know...

I don't like the inconsistent fonts and the wideness of the forums, which on big monitors makes lines too wide thus making it a pain to read.    The whole thing just seems harder to read to me.    Theres also so much bloat been added I don't know where to start...   And why are...

Right, just got these back from a warranty repair, took a while but now I have a brand new pair Upon opening the box, I have noticed a few changes: - The headphone cables seems different, a bit more flimsy, but there are no microphonics at all so far. This is from a quick test but i'll be...

Advanced MP3 Players Shure SE420 Sound Isolating Earphones The SE420's are only £126. Personally would think this is the better deal

I find that EQ is the only way to really get da BASS. Any decent headphone will seriously thump with decent EQ.

None left in my store....

JVC Victor FX500 Shure SRH840 IEM's tend to not last that long so i'll usually upgrade or try something new when they break.

Who know's, just buy the genuine thing for £13: Sennheiser CX 300-II Precision Noise-Isolating: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

If these weren't well over £200 to import i'd give them a go, for that money your competing with the best universals, triple fi, shure 530 etc. Are they at that level?

Yeah I thought about the IE8, but they look stoopid I don't like over the ear cables neither! I think i'm never going to win this war but cheers for the help!

Sound would be balanced most of the time, but on occasions I like a nice bit of thump in the bass to excite things. Most of the time this is possible by cranking the clear-bass up so as long as the headphones are 'too' neutral then I think they should be fine. Max budget is probably £100 -...

Right, so i'm sick of expensive headphones breaking. Currently in the process of returning my Victor FX-500's for warranty and might be looking to get something different upon their return. I've tried various 'expensive' IEM's and they all sound vastly different, and i'm not sure in a good...

Seems they are out of stock everywhere, just tried various store locations and all sold out.

To me, the biggest difference is from using the latest LAME mp3 encoder. I use media monkey which lets you specify the encoder used. I dread to think of the age of the MP3 encoder within iTunes. MP3 really has really come a long way since the early days. Some of my old MP3's sound horrific.

As the title says, wasn't impressed today to be wearing these and the left channel went. From having a quick tinker it seems that the cable is at fault, it seems the contact on the left IEM has buggered. Emailed Seyo-shop about their warranty policy but i'm assuming that its gonna be an...

So I recently got my Shure SRH840. I love the sound these things produce, and upon listening to my JVC FX500 I realized that I don't like their sound signature at all. Which IEM would be most the same? Shure SE530? Cost would ideally be the same price as the Shure SRH840, around £120...

Would I be able to get these onto the FX500? They are Atrio M5 Dual Flange. Future Sonics Earfills dual flange silicone tips.: Amazon.co.uk: Amazon.co.uk: Cheers, MiG
