Omg I missed my chance

Are you getting any more in at some point? Please say yes.

Really fancy the black ones.

I noticed that you had a pair and sold them..are you like regretting that sale now lol .I know the feeling. I got rid of a pair of w4r that now I really miss..I now know what they mean by ..sellers regret lol ..I have a pair of black eq5' that are just sitting in a case that I haven't used in a while that I'm thinking about selling ..don't get me wrong I really like them..a lot..they just don't get much play time anymore

for 135$ , i don't think you can get a better iem - eagerly waiting for my pair to arrive

i may do a 3-way comparison between RE-262,RE-272,EQ-5.....

they are pretty sweet huh. Think I'm going to have to break thrm out and enjoy them again..can't really use them outside rite now though..I live in Canada and it's really cold here rite now and the cold hurts the cable. It gets stiff and eventually will stiffen up or time. I had a pair before these ones and the left side shorted out ..so I had to buy another pair ..if you can find them for 135 bucks then grab them for sure. Up here in Toronto they are around 250 which for the sound quality is still a great price imo

Noted chief. Thanks!

There's no real comparison. The eQ-5 is miles ahead in expansiveness, soundstage, and vocals. 
At least in my opinion
Also, keep in mind I wasn't using the stock tips.

 

[proedros]

which tips do you suggest ?
 
eq-5 just arrived and they sound fine right out of the box - i guess they will get even better with the burn-in

They're great with UE medium silicones. I found those the best out of twenty I tested with.

 

[proedros]

is there a link for buying them ?
 
thanx

They used to have replacement gray medium silicone tips that fit the super.fi series on amazon. But the ones I'm talking about are the tf10 tips that probably can only be ordered from UE (20?).

Just received these before heading to the office and have managed to sneak off and play some tunes through my iPhone 5. I have to say I like them a lot. I was impressed by the bass off the bat - nice punch with great texture. I also found the detail retrieval in these to be a good deal above average. These sound way better than what I paid for them...
 
I was worried that they would be okay, but nothing special as my only other single BA was a pair of Sony XBA-1IP that I bought and sold pretty quickly. They sounded really average - nothing to recommend them - they were competent, but boring as hell. I listened to some lossless Yes, Bowie, Talking Heads live (I love the Stop Making Sense disc) and some Dave Matthews....
 
Very, very pleased with these. I am using the large stock silicone and I think that things can get even better when I go home and try some tip rolling - I have a bunch of UE silicone and the above posts recommend them - we'll see.
 
Very nice packaging, looks to be built well and I couldn't be more pleased. Very pleasantly surprised with the quality of sound coming out of these little black blocks of aluminum.

They're amazing. Go for those UE wide-bores.

do these iems change after the 'burn-in' period ?

 

[audionewbi]

Guys i highly recommend their amp, MHd-Q7 the pairing provides a truly fulfilling sound.

Can't imagine them getting a lot better. They are quite nice as they are.
