Monster iSport Intensity vs. Bose SIE2
These are both relatively new IEM's designed for running/workout. They look relatively similar, but I want to know if anyone has tried both or either separately and can tell me which one they prefer. Here are the Monster iSport Intensitys: ...- bossmanjunior

Gym/College IEM <$120/£70
Honestly, I have used the Bose IE1 and 2's and they stay in my ears better than any other headphone. Oftentimes I will drop my phone and it will dangle as the headphones stay in my ears. Also, I had a pair of IE1s that lasted 6 years of everyday gym use (true story, they looked like gift ribbon...- bossmanjunior

Durable In-Ears But with Great Sound
Okay so I have had some Bose IE 1's for about 6 years now and I have worn them 4 times a week all of those years to the gym. They look like gift-ribbon, stained brown with rust, and have exposed wiring, and yet they still work. Yesterday, however, they began to short out in one ear (a large area...- bossmanjunior

IE Headphones for Workout
i've been looking into the RE-ZERO because of the quality but it doesn't appear that they would stay in the ears that well, can anyone attest to this?- bossmanjunior

IE Headphones for Workout
I've had me Bose IE1 headphones for about 5 years now (the cables look like gift ribbon) and I am looking for a replacement. I also have the IE2's that I use on my iPhone but I'd really like to keep them separate because my workout headphones usually take a beating and I don't need the...- bossmanjunior

Bright-Full Range Headphones
if i were to get the 600 OHM headphones (as it seems that they offer the best performance per dollar) what kind of Amp would I need to drive it? Although its somewhat pricey, the fiio e9i looks decent and it will play nice with my iphone- bossmanjunior

Bright-Full Range Headphones
I've been looking at the Beyerdynamic based on yalls suggestions. I had a question though, what is the difference between the 32, 300, and 600 OHM versions? (pardon my total lack of knowledge in this area)- bossmanjunior

Bright-Full Range Headphones
also, I've heard about the "Grado" sound. Is this brightness, what people are talking about when they say that? (thanks for all of the responses so far)- bossmanjunior

Bright-Full Range Headphones
I'm a relative newbie when it comes to headphones and personal audio (I've mostly stuck with Bose for in-ear and noise-cancelling), but I'm really looking for a headphone that will allow me to enjoy listening to my music and maybe watching some videos. My complaint about the QC15s, although they...- bossmanjunior

Noise Canceling Shootout
My brother has a pair of the QC15 and they felt great and canceled noise great (although I have never had anything to compare them to). My main concern is the sound quality, I am somewhat picky on sound so I was wondering how they stacked up to the other headphones? I guess accuracy and range...- bossmanjunior

Noise Canceling Shootout
So I haven't seen a recent thread like this so I thought I would make a new one after doing a little bit of research on this forum (by the way this forum is truly awesome). I am looking for some NC headphones for studying where I will primarily use the noise canceling feature by itself (sans...- bossmanjunior
