Hi All.  Had a good look round but thought it would be better to start my own thread and see what responses I get.   Current using using my portable media via my Nano Ipod while at the Gym and my Samsung Galaxy S2 while getting from A to B, usually walking or on the bus or sitting at my desk...

Hi All,  I need a little advice regarding some IEM's  I have looked on your forums at the discussions of 535 vs westone.   I found a UK website that seems to be the cheapest. I looked into the company's reviews and they are a mixed bag. Just wondered if anyone has purchased from this...

Hi everyone, first post on the forum, so completely novice on all things head-fi related..  I currently have Shure's SE315's and Monster Turbine Pro Copper's. The 315's I've had for roughly 2 years have great build quality, seem really durable so far and I like the detachable cable option...

Hey guys,    Im looking for an IEM with great bass. Im new so any help would really be appreciated. Im not exactly sure if Monster Beats by Dr. Dre is actually good bass or not, but I want something with as much power and punch as the Beats. I want an IEM that has good sound quality with the...

Hey,    My Atrio MG7s have just died after three years (had the M5 for two before the left ear gave out).   I'm looking for something which sounds similar, and is around the £100 price mark (maybe go to £150).   Also, I've emailed Future Sonic to see if they've any MG7s lying about!   So...

I just picked up a lightly used set of 315's to replace my VERY old but dependable SE110's.  They've got just enough hours on them to be broken in and I've got to say, I'm blown away.  However, I've got one huge gripe, the cable.   The stiff section at the IEM end of the cable is a complete...

Hi there guys,   I am new to this forum and I stand here humbly asking for your valuable opinion.   My first and only pair of headphones were Skullcandy Skull Crushers (I know, I'm sorry, but I was still a teenager then.. :P), have had them for 6 years, they finally started to crap out...

Hey head-fi'ers!   After 1 years and 11 months my Ultimate Ears super.fi 5 died on me. I still had 1 month of guarantee so I sent them back, but they couldn't repair them. They don't sell them anymore either, so I got my money back in the form of a voucher (€140), so this is a nice chance to...

HI people! Sorry for my English)   Help me please choose among Westone 2, Westone UM2, UE Triple.FI 10, Shure 315, or something another till 250$ (i will buy on Ebay)   Main requirements for headphones: 1) maximal soundproofing 2) multi-genre (because i listen different music, from...

Hello, I am sort of new to the high end in ear headphone category,  recently I have gotten an iPhone so I want to buy the best pair of headphones for my music, phone calls, ect.    I mainly listen to rap music and rock (mainly Eminem and bands like guns n' roses).  Although I have found...

Hi, I was wondering if anybody can help me out pick a great portable headphone for commuting. My price range is from 60 to 100. The headphones I am looking at are the Vsonic GR06 Hifi man RE0 and the Shure se 215. I have the audio technica M50 and would prefer a sound close to that( I cant use...

I heard aren't as bass heavy as others like the monster turbine pro, so are they good for rock/ guitar music? Not heavy metal, I mean like green day, red hot chili peppers, audioslave, etc.

Im sick of my apple earbuds and I've narrowed it down to these three. Which one would fit me better? I listen to rap, party music, and rock. 

So I hear these balanced armature (BA) headphones are pretty freakin sweet.  Is there an entry level pair that doesn't cost $300?   I adore the Klipsch x10i headphones, but I just don't have $200-300 to spend on them right now, anyone else know any BA alternatives?

So I have been perusing the forums trying to find a an answer to my "on-the-go-gym-phones" problem. I currently use the stock iPhone headphones (you know those white ones that come with the iPods)...I only use these still because they have iPhone controls and a mic on them, this feature is a...

What is the difference between the SE215 and the SE315? Is it worth the extra $100?

Hi there, just for you guys know this is my first post. I am looking for a IEM for bassheads, under 200, and also comfortable to wear while i'm running. I have in mind: Yamaha EPH-100, VSonic VC1000, Shure SE315 and Klipsch Image X10. Which of these are more Bang for the Buck? Also, could you...

Hello all,  I'd thought I'd share my moody opinion on these earphones. There are lots of good reviews already about the design which I like very much, however I was quite appalled at the sound quality.   (Just some random info - I am a classical pianist/keyboard (15years) Djembe player...

Can someone please advise me on which cans should I purchase between new Bose QC20i Noise Cancellation Earbuds and Shure SE535 Isolation earbuds?  I know how good Shure in-ear headphones are since I used to have a pair of E5C but I never had Bose before so I can't judge Bose quality.  I also...

I have searched and searched the forums and no one really has an answer to this. iPhone controls are a must for me, I am always on the go and I need to answer phone calls, change songs, and turn the volume up and down w.o taking my iPhone out of my pocket. I don't want to sacrifice quality to...
