Hey tayano, this article might come in handy http://theheadphonelist.com/custom-in-ear-monitors-fit-guide/ The press and push method would check for seal, and for comfort testing I'd just wear them for a couple of hours straight and see if it hurts and to what degree.

Hey guys, I've recently taken interest to making a diymod as sort of a weekend project past time. Got an old 30gb iPod off the net and ordered the iFlash so I could stuff the caps in the unit itself. But does anyone have an updated guide to doing the mod with internal caps? The links on the...

Thanks for sharing your experience, that will be $50 saved then!

There's a soft canal option, anyone has experience with it and does it actually make a difference?

Sounds like pretty low sensitivity. Because I'm running the SM3 out of the X5 at 20 on low gain, and its very source dependent for the much needed black background. I'm from Singapore, a very audiophile friendly city to be in with a large selection of everything (except Alclair, sadly)...

Beautiful. Sorry for the flood of questions but what's your comfortable listening volume on the X5 on low gain? Seems like the only few things left to do is wait for a periodic promotion (if they ever have one) or wait for the exchange rate to get a little gentler on the wallet!

That's good, one of the things I do not like with IEMs is when they give a stuck-in-the-head feeling, which I personally believe contributes listening fatigue. But the soundstage cannot be compared to the likes of open headphones can it? Sounds like you are really enjoying that pairing! How...

Anyone heard both the RSM and the SM3 and could give their opinions between the two? From the reviews it seems like the two of them have quite opposite sound signatures. Currently running a reshelled SM3 with an X5 and pretty tempted by the RSM. Thanks!

hello guys, was thinking of upgrading my current IEMs, because the left earpiece is starting to fall apart. what would you recommend as an upgrade, or should I just go for a reshell? I love the SM3 signature, although a little more clarity would be great! I would be fine with both universals...

hello brothers and sisters out there! was wondering if anyone has taken the plunge in reshelling the SM3, because it's rather tip dependent. would the sound change by much? I know that this is going to vary from person to person, but would really appreciate your inputs if you've done it before...

hi Alphamega, you might have some luck at Stereo Electronics, they're at Plaza Singapura and ION, or you could give Jaben at The Adelphi a try too. those are the common places where there will be a decent collection of gear for you to audition to your liking. feel free to ask the staff if you...

hey,   just curious, but does anyone know of a firmware they had for the Studio V? sent mine back to them a few weeks ago and got it back with a firmware dated 2013.01.15 the latest I know of released was 2011.12.23 apparently it looks like they saved the playback preferences. and...

guys, quick question. do you turn off your players when you do not use it? I mean, like leave it on until the next day and continue using it then.   thanks in advance!
