Its amazing how people start of talking in high praises of the 751 then the 710 comes out and the 751 becomes Muddy, and sibilant. Ill be using these phones with a Sony E345, and the comply tips, should i try to cancel my order and switch? |

When I'm stationary I wear them down, but when walking around I wear em over the ear. This works out very nicely. The cable is a tad rugged which creates friction between the skin on my ears and cable, thus no slip offs. |

Should I pick up a set of Sony EX? I have a set of Hybrids that "I" should try, but it seems like the center core is way too small for the Denons Has anyone modded the Sony hybrids to fit? |

They were a huge sonic improvement over the stock Denon tips and a nice improvement over the Sony tips. I use the Comply tips on my C-710s and now I have them on the Sony EX-81s which I use for working out so the expanding foam helps hold them in my ears. |

Its unfortunately and I have tried plenty of tips, but have found the ideal compromise & as stated before, its the med Comply T400.. It does take some of the brightness off the top (which I refer to as shrill sibilance), and seals the best with easily the most comfort. Not only that... they seem to bring a much more neutral & transparent presentation where as both the Denon & Sony EX tips seem to give a "hall" like resonance when directly a/b compared. Along w/ that the Comply "I" think give a better sence of staging, but that's my interpritation. ... The Complys on the other hand make these can's quite magnificant and "do" in fact isolate a bit better than any silicone. ... BUT.... right off the Ipod itself, it was very well behaved (no EQ).. still a bit "bassy" but a fun bassy, much more dynamic and still incredibly resolved.. Weird hey? To me, they don't like being amp'd off a powerful neutral source... perhaps these were made or EQ'd for low powered outputs It works for me, as I "hate" carrying around an portable headamp. |

Pop on a T400 and plug into 3G Nano headphone out and they're pretty enjoyable. They still don't get as much ear-time as my W2 and W3 or custom IEM now, but they outlasted others that are long gone. But they do need the T400 tips to help control the bass and treble balance better for me. |
