Multi-IEM Review - 286 IEMs compared (LG Quadbeat & TDK MT300 Added 06/16/13 p.711) - Page 569

ljokerl, how about a comparison between the UE 900 and the Westone 4?

wow, i really apreciated your work, especially your last review of UE900, exactly one of IEMs I'm going to buy, however, i cannot decide yet, have you ever listened to Heir Audio 4.Ai, It'd be best if you can show me even a little comparison between UE900 and 4.Ai. 

Again, thank you so much for everying you've done so far

Treble is more extended and natural on the UE900 IMO. The UE900 also has a wider presentation. Both have good soundstage depth. 

 

Thank you!

Hi Joker, you're doing an awesome job. Keep it up! I bought the vsonic GR02 based on your review. I bought the GR02 based on your review, they are great so far, especially for the price. You said you never heard of the sony mh1(c), but maybe you should change that: ClieOS gave them a 4.65/5 on sound quality, and they are available for only 20$ (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Livesound-Headphones-Earphones-Head-sets/dp/B008CCSD7K). I am curious if you share his opinion.

I bought the GR02's on the Chinese website TaoBao by the way. You can virtually find anything on there. It's basically the Chinese eBay, except that it requires that you have a Chinese bank account. You can circumvent this by buying through an agent (google for them if anyone's interested, I used go2tao.com). They buy the item for you, and charge 10% or so, and shipping of course. All charges included, I paid only 27 dollars for them : )

The MH1C is now being compared to the GR07, FXT90, and RE262, they may really be something special.

Damn farking fantastic is what they are. I just A/B'ed with my GR07 and I can already see myself choosing the MH1C more that the 07 when I'm outdoors.

Are you serius?

I've found them for US$ 20 in amazon?

are these fake?

What's the MSRP for this MH1C?

If they are US$ 20 pieces that compete with the GR07, i'll grab them just too see how they look like, (and probably use in the gym)

Those are real. There are two versions, MH1, and MH1C, make sure your phone/device is compatible with the version you buy (they assign different parts to the TRRS plug). But yes, the MH1C on Amazon is real, it comes with no box and no accessories.

What's the diference between the MH1C and MH1? just the accessories?

The other version is ~ US$ 70, is that right?

If i was to buy them, they would almost 100% be used with either a clip-zip or a fuze, would there be any problem with it?

No difference in accessories. The MH1 is older, MH1C newer, they use a TRRS plug, and route different signals to each part of the plug. The Clip/Fuze likely use a TRS plug, which would work with the MH1C configuration (it uses the industry standard, in which the mic is just connected to ground). The older MH1 uses an older standard of where the mic connects in the TRRS, I forget the specifics, though it's covered in ClieOS' thread. The newer one will work with most newer phones, most devices without the second ring (TRS), and the like. The older is compatible with some Nokia, older Sony, and a few others (don't quote me on the specifics of which phones). The details are in ClieOS' thread, as well as on the Sony site.

So, I didn't understood your comment here. You said that the MH1C come without box and acessories, but latter you said there is no diference between them and the older model.

Sorry, but i'm a bit lost here.

Both are OEM parts. There is no difference in accessories, you are correct. I explain the difference in the bit about how the TRRS plugs are connected. The C has absolutely nothing to do with the accessories. If you get the $80 version, it will come with accessories, if you get the $20, it will not, and will just be in a bag, as it comes as an OEM IEM with some of Sony's phones. The C has to do with what devices it is compatible with - which is to say, how the TRRS plug is soldered.

ClieOS goes into a great deal more detail in the variations and confusion section here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/632892/review-sony-mh1-the-best-kept-secret

does the mh1c require burn in to sound that good
