Edition 8 - my first hands on impression
Yeah they look solid, durability wise. I hope that leather will stand the test of time, though. No doubt in my mind this pair will be on the best sounding portable arena (except for those who wont care much for the S-logic flavor). But for those talking about the HD800 vs E8 argument, I...- AJan

What to you think is the best LOOKING IEM?
Not when held in hand but when being worn, the version2 of Super5 gets my vote. As for being worn cable down like normal buds, the CK7. Also without the subject of SQ and despite not being an IEM, the A8 really looks awesome when worn. You'll get teenagers' heads turning towards you with those.- AJan

Which would sound better? A Cowon S9, or an iPod touch+amp

W3 NOT as detailed as I observed: brush drums strokes
Today I noticed that on some recordings, the W3 seems to do fairly well with microdetails. But I'm still not too satisfied with most jazz pieces. It seems like there's a cloth over the background instruments. Does anybody else have thoughts on this matter?- AJan

W3 NOT as detailed as I observed: brush drums strokes
Have. I'm one of the lucky ones to get good seal out of the included grey silicones and comply tips. I also bought the Shure Olives, more triple flanges to mod and the Jays clear silicones for the W3 to play with. I love the way the Jays present the trebles most. Now listening to Elgar's...- AJan

W3 NOT as detailed as I observed: brush drums strokes
IMHO, this is where most warm IEMs fail. In acoustic and jazz music, one test I always use to see how detailed and clear a set of cans are, is being able to clearly discern how the metal brushes hit the snare drums (mostly in the background of quiet passages). With the W3, seems like this isn’t...- AJan

Experimentation with the Westone 3
Color me crazy but after experimenting with the iPods EQ settings (4G, 1Gtouch, 2Gtouch, 4Gnano), the W3 is a totally amusing animal. It's been well known that the iPod's EQ distorts the sound of most IEMs and portable headphones out there. Funny about the W3 though is that it welcomes the EQ...- AJan

recommendation from piano fans
Hi guys! Noob here. After listening to a friend's Keith Jarret CD, I'm now considering collecting some piano CDs but have seriously no idea where to start. Contemporary vs Classical, etc. etc. From a few weeks back, while watching Top Chef on TV, I've also noticed some of their background... -

It is. I ran into a few problems though. When I installed this on my Mac, it didn't give me an option as a separate install from my previous version and when I opened it, all my past tabs, bookmarks, notes, wand cookies, past settings, speed dial marks are gone. Totally wiped clean. Good...- AJan

REVIEW: WESTONE 3, the ULTIMATE UNIVERSAL IEM vs everything else
I understand. That's wise indeed, especially having that UM2 experience. More reason to wait for more reviews if HPA and Vorlon's are not enough. No need to make the decision this early on if you dont feel secure yet. I already saw 2 pairs in the For Sale forum. So yeah, keep your eyes open...- AJan
