    The Hardest hitting Headphones are.. ( "The EXTREME BASS Club")

      Honestly, I understand the blanket response.   You may have really good design ideas, but they likely receive 1000's of other ideas sent by customers who think they know the business and/or the engineering behind what they do. I have been working for manufacturers for about 20 years (not...

    The JVC FX850..Woodie perfection?. (A review)

    They are snug. I know how you feel, but most of what you are dealing with is the ear bud tips. The other thing I did was upgrade the cables to the Linum Bax which are super light. With those 2 upgrades, I can barely tell the ear buds are there.    With this setup, I use them while bike riding...

    The JVC FX850..Woodie perfection?. (A review)

    They come in a pack with several sizes, so you should be able to find something that works for you. I got mine on Amazon.   http://www.amazon.com/Sony-EPEX10A-BLK-Replacement-Earbuds/dp/B001RB24UA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1429820112&sr=8-1&keywords=sony+hybrid+eartips

    I had the same problem and tried several different ear bud tips. I ended up with Sony Hybrids. They are perfect now.

    I personally did not like the Spinfits, however my ears are finicky. I have a set of medium and small if someone wants to take them off my hands.

    Review: Estron Linum BaX --- New IEM Cable for a New Age

    I have the BaX mmcx paired to my JVC FX850 iems and the weight savings and flexibility alone was worth the upgrade in my opinion. With the stock cables I always felt like the weight was tugging the earphones out of my ear. Now I feel like they aren't even there. Bass seems to have more detail...

    I ended up with Sony Hybrid tips. The others I tried would not sit well in my ear.

    Watches - another passion of ours, it seems...post your pics!

    My previous daily driver before I obtained the Omega.

      I would imagine it sounds great but if you like your music on the louder side, like I do, you will probably want to use an amp.   It's night and day for me with my Philips L1 when I plug up my O2.

    The DX90 definitely doesn't need an amp for iems. I mate my DX90 with o2 amp when at home to drive my full size headphones though. I love the sound from both configurations.

    That may come into play soon. I really do not think TAGs are very special anymore.

    I haven't put on any of my TAGs once I got my Omega Seamaster!

    Nothing if your budget matches your taste in time pieces.

    Problem with buying winders and having empty slots, you are going to have the urge to fill them everytime you look at it. :)

    This one is pretty good. Never any issues, Japanese Mabuchi motors. Wouldn't put it at my bedside though, it's not 100% silent.   https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GQFVBKQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Tell me about it. All my watch winders are driving my woman nuts.   If you don't know already know about this one, it's a great addition for a collection because of the history behind it and what it means for the watch making industry.  ...

    OE Samsung S3 battery will have legit capacity.   Majority of the aftermarket batteries from overseas have shown to exaggerate their capacities. At least from the tests I have seen.

    Even used is fine if you can find the right seller. Easily one of my favorites. I unloaded several other watches once I found myself reaching for this one more than any of the others.   Planet Ocean is a great alternative IMO.

    Fiio X5 or DX50/DX90

    I haven't heard the X5, but I just went from the X3 to the DX90, and wow.. There's that presence I was missing. The music feels "rich" coming from the X3. Vocals are clear and commanding, without becoming "shouty". Right out of the box. I can't wait for this thing to burn in a bit. Hooked it...

    Suggest a portable DAP/DAC/AMP setup under $1k

    I have the Fidelio L1.   I have X2's on order as well as some Shure 215's.   I am pretty addicted... My L1's aren't even broken in yet and I've ordered the 2 I mentioned above already.

    iBasso DX90 vs Fiio X3/O2 setup - Opinions please

    Ended up ordering the iBasso DX90 and some new ear buds.   iBasso and IEMs for travel. iBasso with O2 and cans for home?   Maybe upgrade to a full desktop amp at some point.   The addiction continues.
