SoundMAGIC PL-50 released, received, reviewed!!! - Page 10

NE-7M can be bought on nuforce's amazon store (accessible both from their site and from amazon) or from their store on ebay.

Forgot to mention, I need worldwide shipping....
AFAIK, Amazon do not ship earphones... At least not to Israel.
I just looked at ebay, found 1 seller. 49+11 $, so for now ill stick to PL50.

Makes you wonder why they are going for that cheap. Is it like missing something in the package? Man I think I am just gonna go for these at the price, and I though I read it was better than the RE2, and just get a pair of shure olives.

WHY DID I BUY THESE?!?! I already own 3 pairs of IEMs. >_<. Damn you head-fi.

Because the hype machine was well-oiled and churning properly.

So are they over hyped or are they actually good then? Because, i though Clieos gave it a solid review for the price.

Don't worry, I'm sure they're quite good. Just saying that with all the anticipation of these, even people who don't need them are likely to bite (My set is shipping soon ).

Keep in mind Clieos was expecting the price to be $55, and they are now $38 at FP, that $17 is a pretty big difference in these low end iems. We also have people that paid like $80 for them too...

Maybe then he can adjust his review a little based on the updated price? I prefer a straight plug over the L type this has, but yeah.

Time to make a point I said earlier invalid. Earlier I said that FP might be a fake because they never replied to the PL50 thread that they stocked the item. They just did. So less suspicion now.

I too prefer the straight plug, but that's hardly a deal breaker for me. Not sure how it's going to work out with my FiiO E5, I guess I may ditch it altogether.

how do these compare to the S2/S4? Or the similary priced Custom 1?

Wow, 35 + 13 euros on eBay and 29 euros on Focalprice. I would be pretty stupid to go for the PL30's or Beta Brainwavz at this price.

Copied from my Klipsch S4 review:

In my opinion PL50 vs S4 comes down to personal preference, the PL50 has BA characteristics and the S4 has dynamic characteristics, both are very good for their price, just different.

$38 for the PL50's is a excellent price.

You have a point, but there are few opinions yet. Time will tell if a majority prefer them over the PL30.

Edit: I just realized, in order to give an educated opinion, I have to buy them - damn!

Well, yes, but I'm not talking solely about sound quality here. The PL50's build quality, package and availability should also be higher.
