Hi! I'm looking an IEMs for classical music (analytical / wide soundstage) and I'm wondering wich of both IEMs are better RE0 or ER-4P's (others?!), also for it's price. I would use Cowon J3, really need an amp? Regards

Hi,    Quick question...   Would the sound from the Sennheiser HD25-1 II be improved if used with the FiiO E7 portable amp? 

Greetings, I don't want to give the impression i haven't searched for answers, i have and i'm, but everyones circumstances are unique and i'm trying to gather some specific advice. I'm attempting to become a audiophile, by which i'm playfully saying someone who loves music and actual...

Maybe you 'experts'  can help me out here. At this moment I own a pair of Q-Jays which I use in combination with my Cowon J3. I'm thinking of, pasing the Q-Jays over to my girlfriend and getting myself a new pair of In-Ears.   The Q-Jays are great fun listening to, but there are two...

    Over the past 15 years I have struggled to satisfy my audio needs without much success.  It seems like every time I read a thread title with more than 1 exclamation point, I get as excited as a ravenous wolf whom just witness the sudden spontaneous combustion of some woodland creature...

Hi, i just ordered the iem's. I know the j3 is a mighty little player, but i wonder how will it deal with the 62Ω gr07 without any extra help. I've already spent quite a LOT with the j3 + gr07, so the only reason i would purchase it is if it gives some noticeable benefit. And worse than the...

New User here,   I was wondering if they were compatible with each other like if the J3 can drive the full potential of the the Sunrise Xcited IEM. Thank you!    

really just got my westone4 and cowonj3  still trying to figure about about the EQ setting, anyone care to give some help? thanks

  Hi all.   I'm new to Head-Fi, and I'm an absolute noob with these sort of things, so any help and advice will be greatly appreciated! I've recently started paying attention to music quality, and now that I have a job I've stopped pirating music and am buying CDs, and ripping as...

I'm looking into getting some new headphones next week before I travel to Canada. I LOVE my HD25s and I'm not getting rid of it (I also have some M50s for home but I don't travel with these).   However I would really like something similar witha slightly wider soundtage, and I could...

Longtime lurker, first time poster (I could have sworn I had an account...).   After replacing the cables on my Sennheiser HD 25-1 II for the fourth time in less than a year, and seeing the favorable video review of the MM 450, I decided I should try these wireless headphones. I was rather...

All right, so as of right now my DAP is a Sony NWZ-S545, but soon I'll be getting either a Cowon J3 or C3. The IEM's I will be using are the Phonak Audeo PFE-121(?), but what I'm most concerned about with looking for an amp, is to drive my Grado SR80's. When listening quietly, the music sounds...

Hi.  i am always on the look for improving my portable listening experience.  for now it seems that iem's is the best choice for high quality audiophile on the go. this made me think about wireless bluetooth headphones. how is the sound quality?  do some of you use this kind of headphones...

Can anyone suggest a good set of portable headphones which can be driven by a mp3 player (cowon j3) unamped?   I've had the chance to demo a few: Shure 840, Denon AD2000, Sony XB500/XB700/XB1000, M50s and to me they sounded really terrible @@ (demo'ed them all umamped).   Cheers. 

hey guys i am building a rig for my brother. have a 16gb Nano 5g for him set up. he has my Sennheiser HD 212 Pros, but i need them for studying here in college. What IEMs or portable headphones do i get him? he loves my RE0s in the current rig. Also, i got the Nano at a low price, so i...

Hi everyone,   i am new to head fi.   I was wondering what would be the most suitable IEM for me. My budget is around 380 USD (which can be more or less). I listen to alot of Japanese female vocalists like Zard, Ikimono-gakari, Natsukawa Rimi, Kanako Wada, Seiko Matsuda, Momoe Yamaguchi...

Like the title says, what would be the poor man's Ultrasone Pro 900's?  Is it HFI-580's, DT770s, DJ1 Pro, FA-011?!?  What would you guys recommend for someone who loved the sound of the Pro's but just can't get to that $300 price point?

Hi my friends, and thank you for helping.   Well, I just got my Q701 and my friend have a ESW9 yet. And we become lost when we look for the source and Amp.......... I‘m not the expert on these............ Before I got this headphone, I just own some AKG and Denon's portable headphones...

Hi guys,   I have been a long time lurker on this site but this will be my first post.  I would like to thank everyone in advance for the input in this post.   I'm headed on a road trip soon and I would like to use my HE-500s.  I know they are geared towards desktop amps but I really...

According to their website, the Lyr started shipping Friday (2/25/2011). Any West Coasters get theirs yet? I'm dying for early impressions!

The thread title is pretty much the question. How much would I have to spend (and of course on what) so that my Netbook would sound obviously better - preferably jaw droppingly better - than my J3? Phones can be assumed to be good portable on or over ears, or IEMs, as you prefer. Music - say...

Im looking at all of these buds and I would like to know which of the three would be best for bass since i listen to lots of dubstep but also which of them could handle music like mumford and sons passion pit mgmt death cab for cutie etc please help me

Sup guys, so recently I've been in a dilemma   I think I've gotten hearing loss.   Pre 2010, My Iphone volume slider would be roughly 50-60% Post 2011, My iphone volume slider tends to pass the 70% mark.   Of course, this is all subjective, but in all honesty - my Cowon J3 volume...

I'm one of those people - like Katun - who REALLY like the sound the 67 makes. More than my Ety HF5s in my case. This is probably a pointless and masochistic question, as well as an expensive one, but given the above - and that I'm using a Cowon J3 and listening mostly to FLAC high bit rate Ogg...

So... I use my J3 in the car sometimes via AUX in, in which case I will have the volume at max.  Two times (and only two times) I've forgotten it was at full volume when I turned it on with my IE8's plugged in and they started playing at max volume (40).  I immediately turned it down (IEM's...
