smh, the resolution on these is not that far from ASG 2 levels. hoho :evil: Bet i got your attention now ericp huh??? : P

Bear with me folks i literally just these in today cuz ordered them only like 2 days ago.

This thing does not have any of those artificial/ metallic traits that a lot BA configs are infamous for, so looks like those FAD Vs ain't the only natural/ dynamic sounding BA out there. These puts A LOT of gears into perspective that's fo' sho.  :popcorn:  


Must.... Resist!

Must.... Resist!


^ Too late......
.... if the seller re-list these for more than $50 i wouldn't buy them. It's like the lame @ss Zu-cable thing ALL over again. I know supply and demand dictates the prices in the free market but the old Sony XBA-3s dropped to as low as $50 at one time so......
 
Fff the seller he if wants to milk these, i would boycott him that's for sure.

I think the price went up already.

I am skeptical that that's the case, otherwise I think it would be more clear in the description.
 
What I think the seller meant is that the IEMs come with 3 sets of ear tips.


^ Yeah same here as well, but you can always just ask. But imply 1st that they are for 3 sets of the iems instead of the tips. haha
 
BOYCOTT DA' MOFO IF HE TRIES TO MILK THESE LIKE CRAZY!!!

It is 3 sets. There was a listing for 5 sets up a few days back also. A 5 pack with pictures of all 5 boxes together.
Do a fast message to confirm that if you need to though, and check back if you get an answer

so everyone knows 100 percent.

The AKG's are quite tip dependent. Monster's triple flanges make them so bass light and put quite an emphasis on the mid-range. The Auvio Tips bring out a more (almost) flat tonality, and the Moshi hybrids bring da supa V shape. I am afraid of what foams would do to the bass. They're definitely a fun pair of IEM. Make me appreciate how well the Oms manage to keep nice mid/treble-range while still being bass-heavy.

So ZE-1000 isn't worthy of a price tag over 30$?
I thought it was supposed to compete with M200...

Those TEAC ZE-1000 have an MSRP of $350. :basshead:  

Hmmmm...list $350, selling <$100, some good reviews....sounds familiar

My bid was declined. Oh well. Only way I was really taken the TEAC. Want the VSD3S which is over the ear and more interesting; better looking and shares connectors with the Fostex. I'm just more into the Vsonic I guess.

The TEAC is a 6 year old design now. Driver technology has progressed immensely since.
 
The allure of it is that for $30, you get a dual BA, which is hard to find in the price range. I wouldn't spend much more than $30 on a 6 year old IEM design either.
