    Ordering from Amazon.de to the US...will it void Sennheisers warenty? Anyone done this before?

    Yeah, thanks ClieOS. In a similar thread, seeing if Senn has a global warranty, I found someone claiming, "If you bought it from a Sennhesier Authorized Dealer online shop. Yes the international warranty is applicable." But would they equate amazon.de to amazon.com/"authorized"? From...

    Ordering from Amazon.de to the US...will it void Sennheisers warenty? Anyone done this before?

    Yeah I figured I could email razordog and drop the headfi status and he'd be cool with me, but this way would save me 70 bucks or what not. Really dumb follow up, but by amazon EU, Amazon.de is included in this right? You're not just talking amazon.uk or something? (Forgive how dumb this...

    Oh, Macbug, I will not have any buyers remorse at all! I miss my IE8's so much, I want nothing more than them again and was gonna go with a W3 off earphone solutions because they're so much cheaper thean the IE80's (280 vs 449) but this way, it's the same price. I was looking at...

    Ordering from Amazon.de to the US...will it void Sennheisers warenty? Anyone done this before?

    Forgive me if I am in the wrong forum or what not, I have a very simple, straight forward question. Does anyone have any experience ordering from Amazon.de to the US (trying to pick up Senn IE80 for 280USD!) Will Sennheiser still honor the warranty as they would from Amazon.com (as listed on...

    Quick/thriftier replacement similar to IE-8 recommendations?

    Hey all, please help me out here. I recently lost my beloved IE8's in Vegas (what happens in Vegas...you know). I LOVED these IEM's! They were my child. Specifically, I loved the BASS (size & quality) and soundstage of these things. Now, Im going on a month long east cost trip and am in need...

    W3 or SE530 for bass (hip-hop, etc) closest to DT770 sound?

    Thanks cn11. I havent felt this jittery since I was a little kid on Xmas morn, waiting to open what I was sure was a nintendo. I was curious if anyone with the IE8s could could give me an idea of how to burn them in. Specifically what type of music should I play for the "pink noise" ive been...

    AgainstTheGrain: thanks for the info man. I just ordered the IE8s from earphonesolutions so soon we will see (I couldnt take researching any more). It was such a hard move because this forum seems to put the W3 up on a pedestal. I did notice the insanely low frequency range of the IE8s and there...

    AgainstTheGrain: hey bro, I do apologize sincerely, especially for attacking where your from (sorry...my best friends girl is from there and we just dont get along at all; I projected my resentment of her onto you and Im sorry for that. Jersey is great. Much love for the red devils!) I lost my...

    forsberg, your totally right! Thats exactly what Im sure is going to happen if I get the IE8. Also, I think if I get the W3, I will always be wondering how much better the bass is on IE8 as per its bass hype. Thats why Im so frustrated. Most people here love the W3, but I dont think most...

    Sorry, I do apologize, I just dont like it when my asking questions and opinions is called pointless. Especially when someone says I havent been listening to peoples opinions, I have, as now Im even more stuck between the IE8 and W3...actually leaning more towards the IE8 now Thats awesome to...

    W3 or SE530 for bass (hip-hop, etc) closest to DT770 sound?

    So far I've seen that the IE8s are better for classical music and are better at presenting a "smoother" sound? And they seem to have a larger soundstage? However, the comfort and cabling of the W3s seems better (maybe) and it seems to be more "engaging" and "in your face" (which I would prefer)...

    Thanks you fellas so much for weighing in. I have heard of the IE8s and they seem to be pretty favored as well. Im gonna start looking at the IE8s but if any of you can shed any more light on them in comparision to the W3s I would appreciate it. You say the bass is better than the W3, but by how...

    Hey all, this is my first post on this forum but Ive been reading it heavily for the past months, researching phones that would meet my needs. The music I listen is mostly hip-hop/electronica/trip-hop (but also stuff like rage, chili peppers, reggae, jazz etc.) I am VERY much into bass, that is...
