That's helpful, because I think my laptop and my Nexus 7 have about 100 ohms of output impedance, I was thinking an E6 with it's <1 ohms of output impedance would solve my problem, seeing as OP recommend using low output impedance players with the ATH IM02.

  Ahh... Well I'm actually on budget mode now.. But would a cheap amp like FiiO E6 do the job?  

Hey guys, I recently bought a ATH-IM02, and I'm really impressed by it's sound quality, however I realized that the IEM pretty much only sounds good on mobile phones.. I have tried it on my laptop, Nexus 7 2012, PC, and a audio interface rated 32 ohms and it sounded very weak on them. I...

Hmm, will the monster supertip fit the SE215?

Hi guys, I'm looking for comfortable tips with good isolation for the SE215, it MUST be silicon, since I have been using Olive and they just get dirty too easily. I was looking at the Klipsch oval tips, but have no idea whether or not it will fit. Also, does anyone have any idea on...

I have something to say about it's build quality though , it's just me though. The 3.5mm plug kinda screwed up on mine , and as a result the left side doesn't play anything Great sound though. Well , have been waiting for more than 2 weeks for a replacement unit..

Hmm it's starting to become clear to be , why IEMs are so expensive. I guess this applies to many of those luxurious brands out there in the market. But I still don't understand why hardware synths or guitar amplifiers must be that expensive!! Surely those stuffs are more sought after by the...

Thanks for the replies guys , really helped cleared things up for me. But thinking about it , if the production cost of a higher end earphone is like 1/10 of the selling price.. Woah think about the profits they are making!!

Firstly , I'm not here to say things like "They sound the same" , or "Just use the iBuds" or "my Skullcandies are better". I know the difference between a triple driver and the iBuds , I understand why people would go to such lengths to enjoy their music , but one thing I don't understand is ...

Quote:   I just heard the TripleFI , UM3X , CK100 , Westone 3 and IE8. IMO the TripleFi and the Westone 3 had a sound signature that was very similar to the M50 , but the TripleFi seemed to sound better than the Westone 3 , in fact it sounded better than the M50. Well , that's just my...

Over-the-ears with my Super.fi 5.. It's impossible to get a good fit wearing them straight down.

All right I got this recently and honestly I'm really pleased with it ;D. Gonna do a review soon , when I have time.

The M50 is pretty bassy.. After buying the Super fi.5 and actually listened to them.. I realized just how bassy the M50 really were.

Since the one I have is the one on top , it must be V2.0 eh..

Just one question though , I recently bought a Super.Fi 5 , and well I don't really know if its the V2.0 or not .. How do I tell?
