    Replacement for RE0

    My RE0s, which were my first pair of quality headphones, recently started cutting out.  I'm looking to try something different, probably around the 80 dollar range again, though I may consider going higher.  Overall, I was pretty impressed by the RE0s, but I did think they were a little light on...

    Totally disappointed with the Sunrise SW-Xcape

    After lots of researches and weeks reading on the threads here on Head-fi, I bought my Sunrise SW-Xcape. Two months after being shipped (due to the terrible Brazilian postal service), I got it in hands last week. Wow, finally I had this revolutionary IEM, the best option on the $100 tier! Put...

    Bugden Audio Customer Service?

    I did a little looking around and found that Bugden is run by a college student but I would have hoped to hear something from a couple of e-mails I sent them 6 days ago.  My DBA-02's are having an issue where the right channel is mutted and only play at very soft levels.  I love my DBA's but not...

    Looking to buy new IEMs

    I'm looking to buy a new pair of IEMs but I probably can't listen to them before I buy them so I'm here asking for help.  I had a pair of Sunrise Xcape v2(they broke...) and I quite liked the sound but I'm also interested in trying a more "fun" sounding IEM so both analytical and fun sounding...

    Review: Sunrise Xcited and Xcape Impressive Edition

    Following the success of the SW-Xcape in-ear earphone last year, Vietnam-based Sunrise Audio decided to branch out and explore more of the mid-range IEM market in 2011. In typical audiophile fashion, they chose to pursue different sound signatures instead of differentiating based on looks or...

    Sunrise SW-Xcape Impressive Edition (NOT v.2) - any impressions out there?

    As most of you know, well atleast those who have read Jokers massive IEM review and ClieOS' impressions, the Sunrise V.1 made quite an impression here. Now it seems that Sunrise have another option for sale, the Impressive Edition, which ClieOS dubbed the X-IE. Unfortunately there are'nt many...

    Best IEMs based on some specific preferences

      I'm a newbie to nice headphones (I've owned a Sennheiser CX-250, but that's about it). But I've been getting into the sound system thing a little bit (I now own an Infinity Beta 50 based 7.1 sound system). I'm looking for good headphones in the $50-$250 range (but could push it a little...

    RE262 vs. RE-Zero vs. Sunrise SW-Xcape v1 for Rock/Metal

    What I'm really curious about the is mids. Upper mids in particular which is where the electric guitar lies. Which of these three is the most forward in this category? I want my rock to be very guitar-centric.   Or out of these three which do you find better for rock?

    Buds Died - Looking for a replacement and upgrade

    So they finally died. I've owned 2 pairs of these over the last 10 years, and loved them (no matter how bad they sounded). They've always been my go to if I just needed something ultra portable and want music regardless of quality. Anyway, I've decided after my time here on Head-Fi that since...

    HELP! Where to go from the RE-0?

    Hey all! I'm a long time lurker, but its my 1st time posting...so please be gentle with me! :) Been meaning to ask you for opinions for an upgrade, or a switch in sounds...preferably a lateral upgrade rather than vertical. It can be amps or a new pair of IEMs altogether...i've even thought...

    Upgrade from RE0, disliked HD 25-1 II ~$200

    Sorry to create a new thread for this, but my budget, situation and preferences have changed since my last one.   Current headphones and my dislikes about them: RE0 - rough metal scrapes my ear, thin sounding, sloppy bass when it's there, the cables tie themselves in knots...microphonics...

    [REVIEW] Sunrise Xcape v2 and Xcited

    First, I'll like to thanks Sunrise for the samples. The original Xcape is one of the best sounding IEM in the sub-$100 I have ever listened to, but for some reason it was pulled from the market suddenly and replaced almost at an instant with a new model simply known as the Xcape v2. Beside v2...

    ~$100 IEM: Sunrise SW-Xcape or RE-Zero or ??

    I'm looking for an all-around ~100 IEM that has an even sound without being wimply on the base (meaning, probably RE0's would be too 'balanced' for me).   From what I've read it seems like the SW-Xcapes and the RE-Zero's should be at the top of my list.     I was going to get the XCapes...

    RE0s have officially bit the dust... replace with Klipsch S4 or RE-Zero?

    My faithful RE0s have officially retired today, when my left headphone suddenly went silent (after I fixed the case opening a few months back). They served me well for over a year, which is unfortunate for my warranty.     Anyways... I want to grab a new portable pair of headphones for...

    DAP for Sunrise Sw-Xcape Ver 1.

    Hi everyone,   Got Sunrise Sw Xcapes and realized that my android LG GT-540 which was good enough source for SoundMagic PL30, does not match with potential of Xcapes. Thats why I'm looking for player which will be better for these great IEM's. As options I thought about Cube C30 and...

    Sunrise SW-Xcape, Cable Replacement?

    New here, but long time guest lurker!   I received my Sunrise Xcapes probably about 1.5 months ago, and I love them. They've already been through crap, having to re-solder one of the wires in the actual sound units themselves, been through a washer as well. Aside from those things, they...

    Are the Sunrise Audio Sw-Xcape Version 2's still better than the RE0s?

    I'm finding it difficult to get much information about the Sunrise Audio Sw-Xcape Version 2's, so I was wondering whether anyone has compared these. Are the Version 2's significantly worse than the first version?   I have a budget of about £60-70 and I'm looking for neutral sounding...

    I really need help with IEMs! Just starting out.

    Hello all, I've been looking through the forums for the past 3 days, researching IEMs and Portable amps to make the jump from the standard iPod earphones to something with better quality sound. The forums have been helpful, especially with all of the available reviews, but I still don't know...
