I've had my pair for about 5 days now and here's a little review I did.     Let me first start off by saying that I was not very impressed by the H-100 at all.  The highs were extremely bright and harsh and the mids sounded like they were coming from an AM radio but the bass vas good...

Quote:   I don't hear that at all, I hope it wasn't something wrong with the pair you had.  I do wish the decay of the bass was a bit more clean from time to time but that's the only so called flaw I hear but everyone's different.   I do like my HE-400 a bit more than the HD600 or at...

Quote:   The sites been going very slow for me, I don't know if that's what happened to you but I almost posted again also.

After reading everything I could find on the Fidelio  S1 I'm really looking forward to hearing them, they sound like an IEM that I'm going to like a lot and its also going to be nice to see how the compare to the $250 T-Peos H-200 I'm getting for review.

Quote:     I'll be at that meet as well and it will be a good place to get info and try out some equipment, it should be a good time.

Quote:   I bet, and I think that I'm really going to like them from reading your review so it will be a painful moment for me as well but its all good because at least I'm getting to review them.  It will be cool to see how they stack up with the HE-400 and HD600 as I've now been...

Quote:   Mine when I get them are going to someone after I review them, they just haven't told me who yet.

I should be getting my review pair within the next week or 2 and I'm really looking forward to hearing them as it looks like they the fixed the problems I had with the H-100 with the recessed mids and at times harsh and sibilant highs. The H-200 seems like a very nice hybrid and at the $250...

The silver cable I bought was made by a friend and it was a very reasonable price so I'm hoping it will be pretty good which I know it will.

Quote:   Yeah that's one of the reason I don't think its a sound signature I'd like a lot plus its on the brighter and leaner side (that's not to say its thin sounding).   My preferred sound signature is on the warmer side with forward detailed mids and a spacious presentation so the...

I did like the R-50 a lot but after I got more IEM's I bought a pair after selling mine and they just sound very thin and less bass than I remembered so they weren't quite as high up.  The SM3 and e-Q5 are my 2 favorite IEM's and you could through the BA200 in for a top 3.  The e-Q5 sounds as...

Yeah that's a very nice setup and I wish I had the cash to get something like that but the Schiit Lyr will do nicely for what I need and will work great with the othro I have and the one I'm getting.

Quote:   I've thought about getting a pair of Q701's but I really need to wait and get the HE-500 which is the pair I've wanted ever since I got the HE-400 as the HE-500 has better mids and smoother treble.

Quote:   It really is so much better that I'm a bit mad I spent all the money I did on IEM's though that's what got me started on quality portable and home audio so I can't be that mad.  I'm actually waiting on a review pair of IEM's I'll be getting soon so I'm not totally done with them...

For me its the 2 headphones I recently got in the HE-400 and HD600, both are my first good pairs of HP's and to me they sound better than all the IEM's I had and have heard.  Good HP's just sound more grand and spacious (which is a big plus to me) and these 2 have just as good of SQ and clarity...
