I think they are good in competition. Sony seems to have a little bit disadvantage with J chord thing. How do u overall compare? Which one is a buy.

Would something like this work well if I let it run for a couple of days or more? How long should I let it run?   The audio burn in file contains a nonstop loop of: White noise, pink noise, radio white noise, 20-20000 Hz frequency sweeps, 10-30000 Hz frequency sweeps, 20-200 Hz frequency...

hy!   My cx400 sennheiser broke a few weeks ago, and I want a worthy replacement. I listen to calssics, rock, metal, pop-rnb, and elektric too. I think the cx400 was great for me, and I want an IEM on the same level of sound and build quality. What do you offer for $30?   I have find...

Since the x10 is on sale i was wondering how they compare to each other. Sony will probably be bassier but in terms of soundstage, clarity ect...

Was wondering if anyone has had any good experience with a portable amp with their Sony's? I am looking for something around 100 dollars or so. I run them out of a Sansa Fuze. I am really having to turn the volume up on this guy to drive them. They are harder to drive than my ety's.   Thanks.

Long time listener, first time caller. I am currently looking for a set of IEMs in the $80 price range. Have no preference but do currently own a set of monster turbine pro gold which I love - i am looking for a set for my son. Considering monster turbine, shure 215, etymotic hf3/5, head direct...

As the title states Im looking for a set of IEMs that shine when listening to trance. My budget is ~$50. After some research I have the selection limited to the Soundmagic E30, Brainwavz M5, or Brainwavz R1. Im not quite sure which direction to head into from here and some help would be...

A couple days ago, my best friend approached me asking for advice on a decent, Android-compatible earphone with a microphone. She said that couldn't find anything else, she would go ahead with either the Apple Earpods or the older Apple buds. My first thought was the Sony MH1C - less expensive...

I've been using my RP-HJE120's for almost two years now and they're falling apart.I'm looking for a replacement, something in the sub-$30 range.    I've done some reading here and it seems like the popular choices are: Monoprice 8320, MEElectronics M6/M9, Philips SHE3580   However I've...

Hi everyone, new member here.   I'm wondering how big is the difference in terms of sound quality of the Sony MH1C against the Brainwavz M2 which I have now and the Vsonic GR06. Before buying the M2 this week, my daily driver for the last 5 years is a Creative EP630. I am pretty good with...

Im looking at the Audeo Perfect Bass PFE 022, The sony MH1C, the Rockit R-50, The Etymotic H5 and the Shure 215i. My main music source will probably be my iPhone or my Mac. Which of these do you recommend? Im really stuck here, as there are so many to choose from, and im sure ill be satisfied...

As stated in the title, I'm looking for a pair of iem's for under $100 preferably ~80. I generally listen to progressive house, electro, dubstep and would like some suggestions for iems that have more punchy or tight bass with crisp highs as well. Also, I live in Australia, so prices may be a...

Hey guys i was told to come here for good advice. Im looking for some good quality earbuds for my andriod phone. Ihopewhat im looking for is not to picky but here goes..I listen to mostly rap so they have to have loud/deep bass with a mic and volume control. I also want the option to change the...

There has been so much hype about the MH1Cs that really got me thinking, are they really that good that they compare to headphones like the B2s and Gr07s, or are most people who have purchased these never heard other IEMs other than the $30 stuff you find at Best Buy and RadioShack and have...

Hello fellow Head-fiers,  Can you please point me in a direction for listening to classical music with IEMs? I'd prefer to keep the price between $50 and $100. The most important factor for me is durability, because I don't want to be buying new IEMs every month  I'm considering Hifiman...

what is the best earphone i can get for 30 $ ?! will use it for listening to trance and house music .

I had to return some Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket headphones under warranty, so now I've got $70 to spend at their web site and I'm trying to decide what to get. I went through probably 4 or 5 pairs of the FMJ, so I'm worried about durability, but I don't want to spend much more than the credit...

Hi there!   I'm trying to purchase another budget iem at the moment to add a little variety to my collection of one iem so far :D (the vsonic GR02 bass). According to the forums, these two iem's are extremley praised :P   I'm thinking about picking one up, but the thing is, two variants...

It was about two years ago when I first listened to the Klipsch S4 Image headphones.  Before that, I had only ever listened to the crappy Apple iPod white earbuds.  Listening to the Klipsch S4's completely blew my mind, I had no idea what I was missing.   Fast forward two years later I have...

I need an IEM which resembles E10 sound signature, with more bass,detail,clarity and soundstage. Budget should be around $50 . Please suggest me.

Hi everyone,   longtime lurker, and love the extensive IEM reviews, so thanks for all who have contributed!   I had a set of JVC HA-FX80 IEMs, which I quite liked once the bass improved upon burn-in.   They crapped out, and JVC said they are discontinued (as is the FX300 series), so...

Hi recently my Hippo VB's broke and they were amazing i love the bass response but what frustrated me was the cabling, I borrowed my friends Ultimate Ears 400 which lacked bass but were oh so amazing with the flat cable design. I simply scrunched them up, put them in my pocket, and when i needed...

Hi All,   I'm pretty new here and would like to hear your guys' opinions. I live in Eastern Europe and I'm not that of an audiophile, still I'd like to have a relatively cheap but decent earphone. My main criterias are that it should be an in-ear one and the cord should be asymmetrical (or J...

I've been lurking this place for a while, it has been very informing/entertaining... but I think I could certainly use your experience   So I need IEMs for listening to FLACs/LAME MP3s w/ my old Cowon D2 in the subway   I'm pretty much an audio noob, I've only used some JVC Marshmallows...
