Sennheiser IE8 Impressions Thread
Thanks, ordered them today. Just wanted to find out a good replacement cable with no controls on it, as i wont be using an ios device with them - looking to spend less than £30 ideally and living in the UK - would an aftermarket ie80 cable work?- alex d

I am considering selling my koss djpro100s for an upgrade. I am interested in the v moda crossfade lp2, but i just wanted to check that it will sound the same as the m80, and not like the original lp.- alex d

You know you're an audiophile when...
when you finally do have enough money for some new iems, but instead of just buying a pair you can afford, you spend about a month trawling the internet for a second hand pair of the particular ones you want, then end up paying international shipping on them and overspending anyway- alex d

OVER-PERFORMING, OVER-ACHIEVING Headphones/IEMs for their price range. Top cost effective cans/IEMS
I would always hesitate to recommend tf10s because of awkward fit. I would say vsonic produce some of the best vfm iems with the gr99, gr06 and gr07. fischer audio dba 02 mk2 are great vfm, as are rockit sounds r50s.- alex d

Thanks for the help. I think I've settled on a pair of sony mdr ex600s. I tried out my friends recently and loved the build quality, and they just fit me perfectly. Sound great too.- alex d

I've just seen the brookstone clear dual driver iem. Is this an exact copy of the radius hp twf11? if so why is it so cheap?- alex d
