    Hi all,   I've spend the past week researching the heck out of IEMs to try to find a replacement for my Brainwavz M2's. They still work, but my wife needs 'new' ones so I'm taking the opportunity to pass those on to her while getting something new. Just for context, I also have a pair of...

    As topic title states. Looking for a well isolated IEM which delivers a deep, tight and noticeable sub bass. JVC FX500, Hippo VB, and Storm Cyclone pr2 are all examples of bass heavy headphones, but they're all vented, which let's a lot of environmental noise get through. Can someone advise...

    Hippo VB vs. Hisound Wooduo 2 vs. Sony XB90EX

    Hi All, I've been on a journey for some time looking for a spiritual successor to my beloved Hippo VB. Let me just say that I'm on my second pair of Hippo and they have been superb, I feel lucky that I found an IEM so early on that really satisfied what I wanted so much; conversely it also made...

    Spec Me... DJ/Studio/Bass Heavy Cans

    Hi Guys I'm not terribly clued up on full size phones but do like my IEMs, particularly my Hippo VB for gym use with their divine sub/mid bass thump. Likewise I've also owned Atrios, so you may get a feel for the sound I like. I've grown quite a hobby of late in learning Ableton Live 9 for...

    Hippo VB Repair/Recable

    2+ Years ago, while I was looking for my first pair of decent headphones, I scoured the forums of Head-Fi for the perfect pair of headphones that would fit my listening taste. I ultimately settled on the Hippo VB's, and after the initial burn-in, I loved them. I have since then upgraded to the...

    Sony XB40EX vs Klipsch S4 vs MEelectronics M31 vs Fischer Eternas vs Hippo VB vs Radius Atomic

    As the title suggests thanks to the forum i have narrowed down my research to these particular earphones which i believe are all in the category "Basshead" which is what i look for in an earphone i currently have owned the CX-500 and XB-20s where the xb20s produced cleaner and better quality...

    Hippo VB Wheres the treble?!?

    Hey all just curious to find out peoples impressions of the current batch of Hippo VB's. Jaben Audio was sold out of these IEM's for months and a new batch has just come through.

    Are there any good IEMs like Hippo VB with detachable cables?

    I have the worst luck with cables.  In one year I have gone through a pair of RE-0 and two pairs of Hippo VBs and in all of them the cable has shorted out.   I use my headphones...excessively.  I am very careful to not toss them around, pull on them or damage them, but I do use my headphones...

    Upgrading my hippo VB?

    Well I really like the sound of the VB. Awesome bass! but lacks treble and its a lil too big, but other than that I think its an awesome pair of basshead iem for $80. And I could barely find any replacement that has better bass than the VB. Ive asked and read some suggested the "Atrio M5" but...

    Hippo VB or Monster Turbines

    I've been doing mind-numbing research on what specific IEM I want for <$100 but providing the bass to my standards. Alot of you say some headphones have "too much bass," In my personal opinion too much bass is impossible. I tried the xb500s at best buy and wasn't impressed at all. I've been...
