Hey everyone, I am a live vocalist looking to purchase custom in-ear monitors for around $400/$500 to use on stage (club size venues). I've been doing a lot of research on head-fi and I'm seeing that there are a number of go-to IEMs such as UE10s, ES3s, etc. but I'm looking for one that is a...

Hey everyone!   Basically, currently I have the JH5's (custom IEM's) and a Cowon J3, but I would like to listen on my big desktop computer.     Would I need a DAC to connect to my computer through USB to override the audio card and then plug my JH5's into the DAC to listen through my...

I want to spend a max of $500.00.   What should I be looking at?

My first HeadFi post! (Longtime lurker and longtime Gearslutz'er)   I'm a bassist looking to upgrade from my Shure E2's. With lots of research, I've narrowed my decision to two choices:   JH5 Pros Alien Ears C3   These will mainly be used for live monitoring. Hearing bass, kick...

The title says it all! In particular I'm look at the black 48" (after sept 1. 2010) cable they have on the ue website

Hi!   I decided to sell almost all my gear to get a new set of IEM and I can't decide between Custom or Universal... I listen to pretty much everything and a lot of it.   I can go Used or New, I don't mind and my budget is around 650$ all in all.   I've read so many great things...

Option A: No amp right now Pre-order Westone 4 IEM's   Option B: iBasso T3D amp Audio Technica ATH-M50 AND another pair of $200 IEM's (looking at a couple of options)   What should I do?

I just can't decide...    Remold a top-teir universal into a custom or get an entry level custom iem?   I am looking at purchasing a used set of TF10s to remold or a 1964D/T/Q/ JH5 Pro/ UE 4 Pro   Which way did you go and why?    

So I've been browsing around and im thinking about getting custom IEM's. my price range dictates that I stay in the 400-600 range. While i don't consider myself an audiophile, im really looking for the comfort of customs over universals right now. That said, I would always appreciate a higher...

Looking for something like 400 dollars or less and something that doesn't take batteries (if that's possible.... I don't know anything about these amps) I want the amp to bring out the good qualities of the JH 5's and for it to be worth while. I listen to bands like RUSH, Paramore, Parkway...

I recently purchase a set of UE TF10, unfortunately I could not get a good fit with it. So I was thinking about getting it reshelled at fisher, and maybe get some cables.  For the price I am going to spend making it custom, I could get an earsonic SM3. From reading the forum, i know I will get a...

JH5   Foreword (get a comfortable chair and some beverage because this is going to be a long review)   As some of you might know I have been going through the exciting process of getting a set of customs specifically the JH5's, and essentially detailing every step along the way in the...

Over the last few years, I slowly upgraded my way through the shure line of in ear headphones, finally ending up with the SE530s, which I absolutely loved. No need for an amp, sounded incredible, comfortable fit, etc... I however think that I lost my 530s on a recent trip to New York...pretty...

To be honest, I'm not a HUGE fan of in-ears, with my experiencs so far. The only one's I have experienced were the ones that came with my Sony NWZ-A816 and RE0. Maybe it's because every time I have them in, I'm walking, biking, or trying to run, so there's a lot of microphonics. Perhaps In-ears...

50 bucks off if you type in coupon code GOBBLE when ordering. I was waiting on getting a review of the 1964 ears and buying the dual drivers maybe but with this sale, plus their already being a ton of reviews of the JH 5... I just called my audiologist and we're gonna setup an appointment...

http://www.aloaudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_59&products_id=423   i dunno if it's worth 300 bucks. anybody have done that before? 

Never really reviewed headphones before, but I guess we all gotta start somewhere.  I'm not going to pretend to be super knowledgeable or anything, really the only other IEMs I have had that I can compare these to are the UM3X, the Image X10s, and the Custom 3's, but I can do my best.   ---...

Wondering how these to products compare. you can let me know which is more accurate with the facts of the sound signature and also, which one is more fun to listen to... because sometimes as we know when just listening to music through an iPod accuracy isn't always the most important thing...

What's up everybody, I've been visiting this site for years, but never posted anything, I primarily used it as a hub of information. I've learned a lot on this site, but now, although reading pages and pages of information, I'm faced with a delima... I currently have a pair of Shure...

And I decided to go with the JH5's  Never had customs before, though the wonderful fit of the UM3X with the UM56 tips made me wonder what a full on custom would feel and sound like.   Placed my order, get my impressions tomorrow morning, should be a wild ride.   However, I'm not sure how...

Don't know the price range, what factors matter (does the iPod I'm using with it matter? does the IEM's I'm using matter?) Can anybody help. I plan on buying JH 5's in January or Westone UM3X's or Westone AC2's...

400 for Westone. 400 + impressions (but I'm getting mine done for free anyways) for JH audio.   I'm also thinking about the Westone AC2's... I will have money for these around Christmas I guess and the AC2's will have been out for like 50 days or something at that point so once I come to a...

Firstly, sorry for posting like 3 threads within 2 days... I realized I wasn't asking the right question.   I have pretty much decided on the JH audio JH 5 model unless I hear very great things about these Westone AC2's when they come out. If I do get the JH 5's will there be any point in...

Will be paired with unchosen DAP (probably a Sansa Fuze / Clip+, if they support LODs) > LOD > Mini^3. What I need out of them: Price tag - preferably ~$400. Less is always welcome. Can stretch to $500 max, I suppose. Maybe $800 if I sell my ES10s + all my excess audio gear but that...

Essentially even after getting rid of my Livewire's, I will be running blind going for the next level of customs.   I've done quick read-ups on both; however there is a great lack of good/detailed reviews on both of them. So before I go for it, I would like to know whether I would remotely...
