    Monster Turbine or Hippo VB for bass?

    I got the MT's for $105 at macmall. Try there but I don't know if they still stock them (macmall.com).. About the one dot - Exactly how I think. It feels good to know that there are still more gears left in the VB even with the bass just the way I like it ).. I have been in gym with my VB's...

    Monster Turbine or Hippo VB for bass?

The VB's have a similar fit (for me) and so I don't think it will be a problem. I also upgraded the tips to the comply...

    Monster Turbines vs Hippo VB

    Hi All, Can you please compare these two phones? I like bass but clarity as well and to give you an idea I went from Atrio M5 to Victor FX 500 and then MOnster Turbines. Do these really beat the Turbines in bass and clarity? It seems so after reading the reviews. Thanks in advance

    IEMs that decisively beat ER-4P at ~$180 and below (for iPods)

    I would recommend the jvc victor fx500... they arent iem's.. they;re canal phones.. very comfortable.. i've used ipod buds, shure, UE super fi's, bose in ears and atrio m5's befoer these and i can only say - they are the best.. if you want great bass close to the atrios and excellent mid's...

    try the jvc victor fx500.. it is pretty darn good. i am an ex-user of atrio m5's.. been a year with them.. i was blown away but the mid's and high's of the victor ... you might sacrifice 10% on the bass but you gain 50% on the mid's and high's.. i cant recommend them enough. and they are sooooo...

    Replacing foamies for Futuresonics Atrio M8 - newbie in need!

    I've used the shure olive tips and they are pretty good. However i think the best fit was the original atrio foamies.

    Short wire models?

    Defineitely the victor fx500 from JVC should be in your list. excellent bass and quality and very short wire.. i need it because i have a SE phone and it has a connector so i need a short wire on my phones so i dont carry 2 m of wire in my pocket
