Monster Turbine Pro Copper Review   Firsts Impressions:  Oh mother of god they are shiny, oh Mr T you left your IEM’s behind!  Sound wise, hmm getting fit trouble but I guess they sound okay but I can see a lot of tip playing about with is going to be needed.  You know these remind me of the...

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...

By " go-to " I mean what you always seem to go back to even through the vast amount of IEM's or headphones you may have.

For the last few years, I have been using the Sennheiser IE8s.  My listening experience with these buds has deteriorated recently.  I can't get a good seal, the sound is distorted a bit when I do, and the bass is just too strong at times.  So I'm in the market for some new IEMs.  Could anyone...

I've only had my GR07s for about 2 months. I don't abuse them, and already I've lost the right channel. I don't know how this happened, but I'm pretty pissed. What could have possibly caused this to happen so soon? Hopefully I can get them replaced.

Hi,   I love my Panasonic RP-HJE900 for the quick sound fix I use them for. I used to always carry them in my pocket in case I should get bored somehow. But now I gave them away to a hot girl so I either have to get a new pair or upgrade (200 €)... or ask back for them!   What I love...

Upon navigating the Head-Fi forums today, I realized something: There isn't a CK10 Appreciation Thread! Now, some people believe these threads aren't worth the forum space, but I have to give my lovely CK10's some sort of love, don't I? I think this thread will be useful in consolidating...

  Yesterday I wrote a (semi) detailed first day review after making this very impractical purchase...and somehow my post vaporized into thin air. So now I will try and rewrite with my added second day impressions :)    About 2 years ago I stuck my feet into the premium IEM puddle by purchasing...

Dear friends,   I am looking for earphones that will last more than 3 months. I am fed up of breaking my earphones and spending so much on them over and over again. Warranty helps but mailing it in is a big pain in the butt, then have to wait for it to arrive, not to mention when courier...

Hello members of the Head-fi community!   I've recently bought a pair of the regular Monster Turbines, and I was quite satisfied with them at first. I loved, loved the sound, this coming from a pair of Sennheiser CX 300 II which I found super, super harsh to listen to. I loved the bass...

Dear all,   My long-suffering phonaks gave up the ghost today.  Ok, I sat on them.  Either way though, they need replacing.   I enjoyed my phonaks with the black filter most:  I felt the grey didn't give me enough bass, and the bass with the blacks had much better extension and detail. ...

Good Morning Gentlemen,     I'm looking to upgrade/change my current portable IEM setup and was hoping for a few suggestions or opinions on some models.  I've owned the Sennheiser CX300's for the past 3-4 years and while they've served me well in that time I think its time to move on.    -...

hey, I am looking for some in ears that have a similar sound quality of the audio technica ath-m50.....Would the westone 4 or shures 535 be a good fit for these? The audio technicas I have sound amazing, and i'm pretty unhappy with my klipsch image s4s compared to the audio technicas....I want a...

Yo head-fi'ers,   So I am looking for a pair of IEMs that will compliment my DBA-02 and SM3. I was thinking the SE535 might be good or maybe even the SE425. So what do you guys think? have other suggestions?   Or maybe it's time for me to go the customs route?

I've recently been through quite a few pairs of universal IEMs - UM3X, Monster Miles Davis, e-Q7 and JVC FX700. They all had something I enjoyed, but none of them were quite there for me. I like a good deal of immediacy (like my single-ended valve hi-fi at home), with reasonable bass response...

I've decided to get the Grado GR10 and Westone 4, but are there any recommended dealers out there that are willing to ship to Europe? Ebay is hardly an option, so I'm looking for authorized dealers.

Hello head-fiers! This is my first post here, and I want to ask for your thoughts on the aforementioned in-ear monitors.   As a high school student graduating in a year, I am really looking forward to upgrading my current headset, the Klipsch Image S4i. I really love it, but I can clearly...

Hi,   Has anyone here ditched a set of Shure SE530s for something else? What would you recommend?   A bit of background:   My fourth(!) pair of SE530s has just given up the ghost. The first three suffered the dreaded cracked cable issues, and the filters in this fourth set have...

So, what's your poison after the W4, for universals that is....... ? Thought this might be a fun post to end the week with............at least, the end of the week for the folks in the Asia Pacific region anyway :)   "Recent W4 convert"

Hi,   As the Title suggests I'm trying to narrow down my list for a precision Balanced I.E.M that can produce the Diverse Dance music sound.   So GR10's and or FI-BA-A1's ?   Whose lucky enough to have own one of these I.E.M ,do they do the sound justice ?.   Please note I have...

Hi all,   Been using the RE0 for awhile, that was my first step into proper portable audio equipment and a purchase I never regretted. Alas upgraditis has begun to kick in and having heard several other quality IEMs I've been considering to upgrade. Been a long time lurker of head-fi and...

So I have the Ortofon e-Q5's. What;s the difference in sound quality between these two models as their pricing is only about a $60 difference?

So, a while ago, noticed that my EQ 7's had stopped producing sound on one side of the earbuds. Seeing as I bought it used off another head-fier from a different country, decided to try my luck and fix it myself. Luckily, my friend taking engineering lent a hand and guided me through the...

so i've gotten pretty sick of my Beats Tours considering every other person on the street has it today and i'm thinking of getting a better iem.   I'm willing to blow up to 400USD on this. I listen to mostly hip-hop/pop music. I'm looking for one where you don't have to loop it from...
