You can swap the cables on the IE 8.

Oops, my mistake.

that seems like a good price. thats almost half off. and since hes ur friend, u can try it on and then check out the build quality/damages or w/e there may be before u buy. basically, u can look for urself if their good or not and wont need other ppls opinions. 135 is very good price for it. especially if its in pretty good condition according to u. new is about $230.

Nice price, you should go for it IMO.

Is that USD? If so I think it is a pretty good deal if he can provide a receipt for warranty coverage. They cost around $230 new (or £120/US$170 over here).

Interested in seeing your turbine vs. IE7 comparison once you get them. For me it was IE7 hands down.

Also, I wear the IE7s straight down, don't have to reverse the right to left.

Cool, glad to hear IE7 is a clear win. Also, VERY glad to hear that they can be worn straight down. I CANNOT wear things over my ears, just doesn't work for me.

Why did the Ie7's win hands down vs the turbines? Which has more bass?

I own both and have over 300 hours of burn in on both of them. Bass is a lot more present with the IE8's (and that's with the lowest knob setting!). Soundstage is much wider with the IE8's and have slightly better treble. The IE7's are more neutral and have more forward sounding mids. Insertion is shallow (ie7), but I manage to get a good seal with both of them using the medium dual flange tips. The IE7's sound sorta like a cross between the IE8's and the SE530's. The IE8's are the most exciting iem's that I have heard and it doesn't need an amp!

I had to contact Sennheiser directly to get some additional tips.
