Hi, as my title mentions, I'm looking for IEMs that deliver incredible bass (really low), and yet deliver instrumentals and vocals clearly and without much effort. I really looked everywhere online and I keep hearing mixed opinions about a hundred pairs of IEMs which fit the profile. I'll be...

Hey all, starting a new one of these as my interests have changed somewhat and I'm still on the search for IEMS.. I'm looking for a pair of IEMs that have a good overall sound. These will be primarily used for reggae and jazz, although I do listen to some classic rock and underground...

I was thinking about picking up some re262 but i'm not sure if they are appropriate for my music taste.  First off, all i listen to is studio and live u2 and rap.  I like vocals and guitar and beats and rhythm from rap music but im not particularly interested in strong bass (drums).  at the...

I was wondering which of these two have a bigger bass quantity. Also wher can i get the DDM?

Hey!   I've been lurking around these forums for a while, obviously for the enormous wealth of information that you guys have to offer - thanks for that! - and I've decided that I have a query of my own that would definitely be best fielded by you lot.   First things first, I listen...

Hello Head fiers,   First of all i am asking because there are very little posts on the Fischer DBA-02. I heard that the DBA-02 are similar to the Westone 3, is that true?   Are the DBA any good, how do they compare to the x10's? Which of the two have more bass?   Thanks...

  this seemed like a better place than the buy/sell forum but if you think it should go there let me know     First...do I have a problem...maybe   is that problem named the head-fi buy/sell forum...perhaps am I addicted to getting packages in the mail every week or so containing...

So i set aside about $300 for full size headphones, but it ended up costing me about $140, so i decided that im going to buy some new IEMs  with the rest. I'm willing to spend about $150 and i mostly listen to rap/hiphop/R&B. I've had my eyes on the Klipsch S5i, could i get anything better in...

I've had the Triple.fi 10's for about 3 months now, but I could never appreciate its sound. It sounds amazing when I listen in my bed, but it just doesn't sound good when I'm on a train to school.   I guess that I prefer the dynamic IEM's fun sound. What would be one of the top-tier IEM's? I...

OK, wasn't planning to do this, but I've decided i'm going to anyway. I first started my audio journey with shure e2c, which is a dynamic driver iem, and then upgrade to westone um2. And I found i don't really like the um2 sounds, after a while, and now while my friend is in the states...

Hey Head-fi,   I'm trying to decide on a "basshead" IEM in the <$250 price range, and (I think) I've narrowed it down to these 4. How do they compare, soundwise? My source will be an iPod Touch 2nd gen playing mainly 320kbps .mp3s. I listen mostly to electronic music and hip-hop, so good...

Well, I have not check out Head-fi for few years (more into speakers this days) and seems like there are alot more products in the market compare with few years ago.  Long story short, I want to buy a pair of In-Ear Monitors for running and power buy iPhone, can you guys suggest few model I can...

Hi,   Anyone have thoughts on the IE8 vs EX1000? I've read reviews but I haven't found one that compared those two head to head. I'm currently looking for a pair of IE8 or EX1000 and I want to make sure I don't end up with fakes.   I've searched through the authorized dealers list on the...

I would like some recommendations on good IEM's for under $200. My previous IEM's were the Monster Turbines and I liked the sound they produced but sadly they broke. So now I'm looking for IEM's that sound similar to the Turbines or even better. I mainly listen to Dubstep, Drum n Bass, Rock and...

Hi,   It's been a long time since I last checked this forum. I'm again in the market for some IEM's in the 100-150$ price range.   Regarding my prefered sound signature, I listen to anything from jazz & blues to electronic. Previously I have owned and liked the Westones UM2. I must...

Need your help! After going through many and many more threads here, more confused than ever! (gone through ClieOS and ljokerl reviews too!)   Here are my choices.. please help me pick the best! 1. Senn IE7 2. Denon AH-C710 3. Pan HJE900 4. Head direct /Hifiman Re-Zero 5...

Which of these would be best for pop/jazz and techno music (all of them are priced at about US$300) unamped? Not a basshead, but bass is important!   1. Ortofon e-Q5 (US $270) 2. Ortofon e-Q7 (US $320) 3. Radius W21 (US $300)   Or do you think the Panasonic HJE900 (US $190) or the...

Hi, I have decided to buy a new IEM to complement my Ety ER4p for my portable rig. My  PMP are Cowon J3 and D2. I have a Meier Corda portable amplifier but usually I don't use it very much. So usually iems will  be directly driven by the players. I really like ER4P but would like to have...

Hi all,   Currently I am using the Etymotic 4ps to listening to my music with my Macbook Pro connected to a Fiio E7. I ordered a Nuforce uDac 2 because I heard the DAC is supposed to be better than E7.   I love the clarity of my Ety's and I am a treble lover but the lack of bass for...

Hello IEM experts! I'm someone who loves to listen to pop, techno R&B, hip hop etc! What could be my best IEMs , unamped of course since I use a Sony MW600 bluetooth to plug the IEMs into and my source is HTC desire and ipod video.   Also, do you think using the IEMs thru' the bluetooth...

Well, it's about that time.  I'm looking at my audio stuff and thinking "hmm, what should I drop $200 on next?"  I was thinking of buying new IEMs (to uprgrade from my S4s) but there are a lot of fine looking portable headphones out there.  I am only concerned that portables will not give me the...

I've been using the radius DDMs for a few months now (only previous phones were klipsch s4s). I use the DDMs primarily with a desktop computer at work--no idea what sound card it has--maybe a soundmax or something. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone could recommend a good USB dac for use in...

I recently discovered the magic of using a shallower ear insertion with Radius DDMs: the music is so much clearer, impactful and detailed than when I had these things shoved all the way in with the large tips.   I'm now wondering if I can achieve even better results with alternative tips...

Im currently looking at the UE TF10 sold by amazon. seems quite cheap. but i am open to any other suggestions.

Hey guys -    So, I've been using my Shure E500 for about 5 years, and they've finally died on me.  I called Shure, and they told me that for about $150 I can have them replaced by the SE 530, which apparently is the same as the E500.  I asked for the SE535, but thats out of the question...
