oh okay interesting. I always thought the opposite. Its no wonder then that some IEM companies can use the same drivers, but the end result can sound different. 

What im really asking is, How do some in-ear/Over-ear monitors give out the kind of detail it does? How come other headphones cant do the same?    There are headphones that are in the same price range lets say, and one of them has a lot of bass, and the other has crazy detail. What is it about...

What made you give up the ER4PT then? The inconvenience of use? Did you see it as giving up some detail for comfort? Elaborate of you will....     This is exactly why i can't decide between the two... Should i go with the HF5's for ease of use (i listen to music while moving a lot), or live...

Thanks for that. I haven't made a decision, but you've definitely brought me closer to one.   BTW, you know any other analytic sounding IEMs around the price range of the that are around the price of the HF5's? i checked the crazy "300 over IEM shootout" thing, but was wondering if you knew...

AWESOME dude! Thanks a lot. This did a lot to help me in my decision making between these two about which to buy. tell me though, are the ER4 models you have hard to wear over-ear? Because i prefer wearing my headphones that way. Less micro-phonics.    Also, are the differences in detail...

im looking for someone who could do a comparision between the Fa-300's and the hp700's...i dont have them avilable for purchase here where i live, but im interested in getting one of them. I need someone to be my ears for me...i know that sounds nuts. but its the only thing i have going on...

THREAD REVIVAL! WHOOO   hello there rpgwizard, just wondering, have you heard both the hp700's and the FA-300's? i wanna know if you could make a short comparison (maybe even a longer one of you have the time). :)

Hey peoples....thread revival. Hopefully this gets seen. So to those who have listened to the Hf5's and the R-50's, how do those two sound compared to each other? in terms of detail retrieval, sound sig, soundstage,...well technically, the whole 9 yards. 

Okay, thanks a lot. i still have questions. Im gonna sound dumb asking a lot of questions but i dont care.   Anyway, firstly what does AFAIK as an abbreviation stand for?   what exactly is low/high impedance?   What are the kinds of things i need to know when im buying an amp? I dont wanna...

I've been looking around here...and ive not been able to find a thread that could answer my question for me...   So I've just been wondering, what is it that an expensive amp can do that a cheap amp can't do. If there is a substantial difference, when does price/quality ratio start to get...

Can you compare the xba 40's with the westone 4r in more detail?

I don't have the ip model so I can't say. It's probably just the lower quality cable...maybe they have product deal with apple there...I mean, why would they make an iPhone applicable one if they have their own line of phones right? Jun.
