Just went through a similar dilemma myself over the past week or so.  Amazon UK had P5 S1's on a blow out sale at £135 that I couldn't resist but unfortunately I had a bit of an intermittent issue with the left ear so am in the process of returning them as they couldn't replace now that the P5...

Quote: No serious issues but I think they somethings just around the corner.  The cable is very thin and the build doesn't fill you with confidence.  But they are very light and with comply foam tips provide an excellent seal with top isolation.   Im not particularly careful with them...

Know what you mean Broly!  Folk on the forum cant make the call for you in the end (as Ive found out!) so try match a pair of IEMs as close to your tastes as pos and just go for it.  To be fair, I think the S4s would probably do the trick for your type of music.  I loved mine to begin with but...

Quote: I have owned the S4s since about Christmas.  I don't like them.  Or, more accurately, I dont like them if I dont fart about with EQ settings and the like for various genres and songs.  If you're not careful with them the bass is just too overpowering and muddy for my liking.  If...

Alright bud   Very similar to my recent queries on the forum.  My main source is the same (largely via Spotify) and much of the music tastes similar - minus the Heavy Metal mind you but replace with Post Dubstep/synth sort of music.  You have a very similar sound Im looking for.   All I...

In all probability a scam but it's not uncommon for items to be listed at bloated prices before the selling price is finalised and the price drops.  Have seen it dozens of times - even from Amazon themselves - with things like new tablets or other electrical goods.     In any case these look...

Slightly different circumstances but a mate of mine was selling an iphone and was scammed by the purchaser.  Paypal were basically hopeless leaving much of the leg work for my mate to do.  Thankfully he was tenacious enough to keep at it and the case is due to go through the small claims court...

I initially really enjoyed them.  My first step from the basic Apple buds were Sennheiser CX300s which where too bassy but enjoyable enough.  Poor build quality though so I took a punt on the s4's after the Sennheiser basically fell to pieces.  Was a clear step up from the CX300s so to begin...

Had a chance to listen to a fresh set of HD25-1 II's today.  Right out of the box they were a marked improvement over the s4's - as you would expect I suppose.  Initial thoughts - surprising how isolating these are.  I couldn't hear a thing other than the music or hear myself talk.  Also found...

Thanks guys.  Kunlun, I'm based in Scotland but close enough to England!  Had never heard of the Future Sonics Atrio's.  They aren't widely available in the UK from what I can tell.  Overstock.com look like they ship them out here and at what seems very good prices.  The MG5's are about £45...

Should really say apologies if these sort of requests for help should go elsewhere.  Know it can be pain swamping forums with requests for help.  Let me know if it should be moved.  Cheers

Hi all, new to the forum but been reading heavily over the past week or so and I never thought I'd find head/earphones so interesting!  Anyway, I'm hoping some can help or advise on what isn't quite a straight forward problem!   The bottom line is that I'm not entirely happy with my s4's...
