Hi guys,   this is my first post on the forum.  Fantastic info, well done!   I am just looking into getting some IEM's, it will be my first pair.  I decided to step it up from the stock standard iphone buds.  They will mainly be for working out, I lift weights and do plyometric's and...

I've owned UE700s for about a year and a half.  Back in June, Logitech replaced my original pair, because I lost all audio in one ear (may have been a cable problem).  Now I'm faced with another warranty replacement.  I last used them on a run a week or two ago, and they were getting sweaty &...

Hi, I'm looking for a new pair of earphones. So far, I've had Sennheiser CX200 for about 3 years and tough they sounded great. I'm looking for a new pair because the connector started to loosen and the rubber on the cable is a little cut at some point.   That's the only "quality" earphones...

So I am new to the world of headphone collecting and I wanted to get a nice beginner pair of IEMs  for under $100. I was torn between the Meelectronics A161P and the Spider Realvoice. I have listened to some Shures in the past and found them flat and not enjoyable and I was worried the A161P...

I am not an audiophile, but I love hearing music, hearing all the different tones of the instruments, the mids, highs, and lows, and I am just looking for a pair of IEM's that would be comfortable for everyday use, with clear sound, and good bass. Can anyone help me choose the best pair of...

Hi,   I'm in the market for some IEMs, however I live in South Korea and the differences in choice and price can be huge compared to the U.S or Europe. So, rather tell you what my budget is, it's probably better to tell you what I've found out I can afford after doing a little research.  ...

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...

I recently got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598's that replaced my Audio Technica ath-m50's, so now i plan to sell the m50's to get some IEM for more portability, this is my first purchase of over $20 IEM's so I'd like some help on this.........my budget is about $110 and I'd like to get some with...

First off, I know there are already a bunch of threads like these but hopefully mine is a little more specific, so anyway... I've been lookin around online for a new pair of in-ear headphones recently since my most recent pair blew out on me. This would be my first higher end in-ear purchase...

I'm new here, I've searched the threads and can't find much info.  Most of it talks bout techno, Dubstep, and hip-hop.  What is your opinion of the best sub $200 dollar IEMs for Rock music?  I listen to a lot of Rock/Metal/Progressive for long periods of time at work.  I'm finally looking for...

Hi there, this is my first post so here it goes:)   I am planning on getting a new earphone for my daily music dosage but i am having some difficulties choosing between brands.   1) Etymotic HF5 2) Shure SE215 3) Westone 1 4) Westone UM1 5) Ultimate Ears 700   These are the...

Hi everyone.   Just wondering how the new UE 4000 sounds comapred to the Sennheiser HD 449. I've been looking at these two headphones for a while and wondering which one I should purchase. Please don't give me recommendations for others. Where I live, it's hard to find many other brands...

can i mix my comply foam as well as ue700 (comply removed from the iem) with rice cos i want to remove moisture from my comply (and iem)? i saw on internet that rice can help to abosrb moisture (from phones), but will it spoil my iem and comply? or will it attract bug and spoil them? so is...

Hi everyone,   Just wondering if people can give some suggestions between these 3 IEM's. I chose these 3 because it seems they get good reviews, are pretty small (plus seem like the type that would be comfortable to me).      I realize that the UE 700 is a double armature but I worry...

Title says is all.  I just ordered a pair of UE 700's and i would like to get some triple flange tips for them.  Does anyone know what will fit?   Thanks!

I have SE210's which work well and while they do offer good isolation they are big.  I don't carry a bag with me daily so the SE210's in their case are just too big.  I am looking for a smaller iem that offers good isolation and is not as vulnerable.  I want to have a small pouch where I can...

Hi guys, another recommendation thread to follow the plethora of existing ones.. Basically, I recently had my jacket stolen whilst at a pub (shouldn't leave things sitting aside, my own fault). In the pocket of said jacket were my Ultimate Ears (UE 700s), something I'm not as irritated about...

I sent my older UE 700's back for warranty, they send me a new pair- excellent customer service I may add. It seems the new-in-box pair they sent me have a new design. They are longer from the body to the port, I am not a fan to say the least. The older, shorter ones fit, these are too long...

Hi there!   I'm looking for the cheapest dual balanced armature driver IEM available in Sweden, since I need them as soon as possible. Buying them from a country outside the EU, would take ages and the cost for customs, shipping and taxes would probably make them the most expensive dual...

I have no idea what I'm doing, so if someone could explain why they're suggesting what they're suggesting, that would be awesome.   I want to get a pair of headphones that have clear directional audio in the source engine, particularly Team Fortress 2, and good performance in Counter-Strike...

Hello,   Like many before me long time reader 1st time poster. I have always liked listening to music and having cool gadgets but lately I have been using either my phone or tablet to listen to music and it just wasn't working for me. So after reading up a bit decided on the following build...

Does anyone have any recommendations for IEMs that fit really well when laying side ways? I love my current headphones, AD700s, but they're impossible to lay sideways with. I was thinking of going with the AT CKM500s because they'd have that AT house sound but I was also looking at the Hifiman...

Rock IT R-50 Review   Introduction:   The Rock It R-50 first caught my attention when a fellow head-fier fell in love with it when the company was very young. He made some very bold statements about it and I was quite unsure at first when I saw the price of only £75 but the as more...

The plastic housing on one of my Ultimate Ears Super Fi 5 Pro broke. These have been discontinued and I can not buy another pair. I loved the sound signature of these. I have tried the Triple 10's and I didn't like the bass as much on those. To me, the Super Fi 5's weren't as harsh in the treble...
