    Sony MDR-1000X

    Just got back from the store, where I had a quick comparison of the 1000x, QC35 and PXC 550. In terms of noise cancellation and sound quality, the 1000x was definitely ahead for me.   However, I am a little bit worried about the comfort factor. The cups in the 1000x are much shallower than...

    VSonic VSD1/VSD1S Reviews/Impression Thread

    By the way, for those interested in the VSD1 Limited edition, I just ordered 1 set from bigbargainonline on ebay. They still hv several pairs left! Do note that they aren't bundling the foam ear tips, so do factor that in.

    vsonic R04 vs. GR06 vs. VC02

    For vsonics, the lendmeurears website is a pretty good place to start.   As far as I have gathered, the GR04 is divided into GR04 Classic, GR04 Pro and GR04 Flagship. The GR04 Flagship looks identical to the GR04 Pro, but has a 50ohm resistance rather than 24ohm. Lendmeurears sells the GR04...

    Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Review (yes that really is its name)

    I've yet to try the vc02, but am plenty pleased with my GR04FE. Have been hoping to hear from others who have both for a comparison as well! My guess, based on the reviews of others, would be that GR04FE is the middle ground between the `slightly V shaped GR02BE and the more analytical VC02...

    Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)

    Great review on the VC02! Would love to see one on the GR04 Flagship, I find it extremely underrated, even though those who own one (including me) all seem to love it. Am angling at ordering another pair as a gift, but the choice between GR04 Flagship, VC02 and GR02BE is really tough!

    $40 IEM Battle Royale (RHA MA-350 Added 3-1-13)

    Try adding the Gr04 Flagship to the mix! With the coupone LMUECUST, you get 15% off at lendmeurears. That brings down the cost to S$55.25, or US$44.65.   I just bought a set and it sound great after burning in for about 30+ hours. Started out kind of crap, but improved significantly with...

    Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Review (yes that really is its name)

    Quote:   Just got my hands on them 2 hours ago! The initial sound quality was actually quite disappointing to me, with nearly no bass and not much detail/soundstage. However, just an hour or so of burning in appears to have made a difference and things are looking up! The bass has...

    Kind of off topic, but would you happen to be Alexander Bont, as in of Bont Skates? AKA godzilla?

    Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Review (yes that really is its name)

    Hi all, just ordered a set of these so let's hope they come soon! (I'm in Singapore so it's local delivery, should be fast as long as they dispatch it early). There's a coupon code for the lendmeurears site, LMUECUST gives 15% off.   Hope to compare it with my (just broken) Xears TD4...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    The TD4's do benefit from some burn in, mine definitely changed after the first 30-50 hours. The bass increases in strength a fair bit.

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    Quote: I just tested it, works fine for me. Maybe try re-loading the site?   Anyway I'm an owner of the TD4, and really like them, but I don't have the expertise to describe/compare. Would love to read an expert's review/comparison, especially with the XE200PRO.

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    My TD4's come with a Y cord, not a J cord. And it is made of thick rubber. My main problem with this design is that it is so stiff it often refuses to sit nicely over my ears, leaving me hanging onto the cable to hold it in place. But it is really tangle resistant   My Xe200Pro Walnut came...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    I'm liking my TD4's very much so far, but wouldn't say they are perfect for bassheads as they are more balanced; they don't bring out the bass on all tracks, only those meant to be bass heavy. My only comparisons are old bass heavy earphones so my assessment may not be accurate. The TD4's are...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    8 Euros standard, worldwide shipping. I got mine in Singapore probably about 6-8 days after ordering? I'm still highly impressed by my TD4, the clarity is way better than the 3 other budget iems that I have owned - some cheap sony, Crossroads Mylarone X3i, Nuforce NE-6.   After burning in...

    Seems like the TD4 has come back in stock on the Xears website. Maybe more people will start getting their hands on them and giving some reviews soon!
